Maybe these 2 are an indication of finally a down swing to the early Dragons. There wasn't a quiltmom anywhere in sight. :wink: I had #3 on the cheap if I wanted it, but I just decided not to pull the trigger. :? I will probably regret that eventually. :evil:

Was watching... Yeah, on the plus side, <quiltmom> appears to be happy with one of each (usually?).
Wouldn't have said that was overly "cheap" for #3 ($60), even though it looked like a pretty good copy- trimmed scan not withstanding.

There were others just about "crawled" in at $50 or so, tail end of last year. (With one of those having but a single bid, IIRC).


... will be more than happy to pick up a #1 for $100-150 some time, though! :P

I am sure it won't fit Frank. He is not a small person.

:D

Hrrr... looks like someone else maxxed him out. :(
Still an hour or two to go, though.

*nod nods*. Would sound like a logical location for a decent sale price, that!

Don't recall seeing that many of your more "unusual" items on eBay very often (at all)...

Probably should have stated "cheap" as a more clear reference to what they have been going for lately. :wink:

Well, 2 things. First off it is Aneoths 1st print Monster Manual for the 3rd time. :roll: We busted this guy a few months ago for shilling and got him suspended. I could go on for another hour about this guy, but I will spare you. I am however going to not going to spare EBay and will be promptly be reporting him for having his lying accusation in his auction. :) Hey Kev, since I know you are reading this. BYE BYE AGAIN. :wink:

==========================
Edit--- This guy is so F*cking stupid he just outed jonb7839. I know we all already know that he is the previous ETC/TGE, but he just openely listed it in his auctions. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Thanks Kevin for the concrete evidence that we needed. :wink:

*lol*. That's one angry Martian Warrior! :P

Can I get him for libel, first?

(Pity I'm not a reseller, so I could sue him for potential loss of business, too. *hint*).

I already report him to ebay and I also sent him a nice email thanking him for libeling me. :wink:  Anyone know a good lawyer? :o

And Seriously some make a jpeg of that auction listing, we are going to need it.

Wasn't easy to find a category for "being a total ass" on Welcome to eBay .
Did you manage to find an better reporting route than that?

Have sent via there, and their "Encouraging Illegal Activity" category, elsewhere.

btw. That libellous text is not just in that one auction, but all nine of their RPG auctions.
Have taken .html copies of a couple: will work my way through the rest.

(Thanks for the "heads up" <bbarsh>!)

I just reported him under problems with sellers not listed.  I have saved the screen 2 different ways and I also took some very nice and clear digital photos of all 9 auctions.  I think we are set. :wink:

You might as well try the "Encouraging Illegal Activity" route, too, Brian! :)
Encouraging illegal activity
, even if you can't add any text, there.

"SO PLEASE HELP SUPPORT AND PROTECT GOOD EBAY MEMBERS BY EMAILING EBAY ABOUT THESE MEMBERS AND MEMBERS ALIKE"

Sure looks like encouraging other people to commit libel, IMO.

Brian, I've got a very sharp, three-page PDF of the auction just sitting here if you need it. It's nice and sharp, with perfect margins, etc. Just let me know, and I'll e-mail it to you.

Done, Good suggestion.  I don't know if you noticed it yet, but he is still listing more auctions with his libelous description in it.  I guess my email didnt discorage him. 8O   Oh well, it really sucks to be him. :wink:

Yes please do. :)  I am already quickly building a file. :wink:

I'll call tomorrow and see about getting the libel suit started.
I never cease to be amazed at how frigging stupid some people can be. It's good to know we got to him, though!

I e-mailed eBay for his information. If I don't receive it within 2 days, and the listings are not removed, they'll be added to the suit.
