Not the friendliest of signs.*shrugs*I sent the guy an email requesting what the "error" is or did someone offer him a side bid to end it early. I was watching this one a few days ago, even had a nice big note for it, when it suddenly dissapeared from my watch list. If it wasn't for the above post I would have never found it again. Then to have the seller end it because of an "Error" in the listing?Yeah right ....its that kind of crap that is going to eventually make me give up collecting....to much of a headache Maybe its time to just go postal
