I already asked the seller, but we shall see how he responds. Invincible, you may want to wait until I get an answer before you get crazy on your bid

Thanks for the clarification.  The reason I ask is becasue there are actually several prinitngs of the box set that you are selling.  With the different printings the contents of the box was changed up.  You actually have listed a picture of a 1st or 2nd print box set and the contents that you have listed for indicate that it is at least a 4th printing or later.  You may want to make a note in your auction that the picture that you have listed is simply a stock photo, because 1st/2nd print sets are considerably more valuable. For backup reference, please see The Acaeum.

Thanks for your time,
Brian

Question about your item  

Marketplace Safety Tip  

If this email is an offer to directly sell you an item without bidding on and winning the item on eBay, please report it to us immediately and do not respond. An offer to sell an item directly to another eBay member through email violates eBay rules. It is also extremely unsafe to purchase an item through this email system regardless of the seller's claims or feedback, as you lose the benefit of eBay's purchase protection programs and risk losing your money.  

Dear bclarkie,

You asked:
"Dear Seller, I was wondering about this item that you have listed the picture that have posted does not seem to match what you have listed for the contents. Is the picture you have listed in this auction a stock photo, or is it a scan of the item itself. The reason I ask this is because you have listed a B1 module listed in this box set, but the picture that you have listed would not have that module in it as as it was not until later printings of this set that this module was included."

it is a stock photo i do have some pictures i can send you of the box, i did not post on auction as i tried to get a picture of back of box and it came out blurry. but the front of box looks exactly how i have posted. and on box it does show coming with B1 module. i am not sure what year this is but from research i would say 1978-1980 approx.

Sometimes there's just no explaining something to a seller:
cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&a ... otohosting

Swing and a miss. If you look at the picture, you can clearly tell it's a first print photo (I believe it's the Acaeum 1st print photo), whereas the seller describes it as having 1001 on the box and a wizard logo.

Now, this could be yet another newbie seller, but who knows.
I'm also getting some wicked deja vu here, this look familiar (see bclarkie's post, above)?

Once again, just like the other seller, it is also described as having B1 in it which means at best its a 4th printing.

I have a sneaking suspicion this is probably a delay tactic so that folks dont realize that they are getting ripped off. Worst part is, he never even responded to my follow up email in regards to the invoice he sent him, saying he stole from me.
