Still the prices shock me (he didn't even have the Planescape Sketchbook GRRRRR)Just checked the stocklist and the orange copy is still there So, interested? I just wondering where he get's all this new and mostly shrinkwrapped stuff from. It was quiet about 2 weeks ago and then he started posting about 300+ items, now for the 2nd week. If anybody has a clue (or conspiracy therie) I'd love to hear )

I believe they were UK2 and X4. He sent them quickly enough, but in a manila envelope with absolutely no protection. Both were nice copies, but were damaged in the mail of course, big ugly indentations on the front. BUT...he left feedback for me immediately after I paid him. So I was in a good position to push for a full refund, including shipping both ways. Of course, he didn't want to do that, and I wasn't about to spend more money on those modules to ship them back to him. Plus his emails were sketchy as hell so I didn't really feel assured I would get my refund back unless I got the money first. Of course he wanted the modules back first. So, I left him two negatives. Shortly after that, he started listing in his auctions that he would not leave feedback for buyers until they left feedback first. So that was my fault.

When I bought all 7, and asked the seller to combine them (as the auctions stated he would), he said that he ships separately. We went back and forth about it, and he said they were already shipped (this was the 10th). He claimed he meant to remove the combined shipping from the listings, but forgot to. They arrived on the 19th, shipped separately, shipping stamped on the 16th. So lies on top of lack of attention to detail meant a 7 negative hit for the idiot.It makes no difference to me that the mods are easily worth $5 each. I already have all of them, I merely thought they would be good for trades. If you scroo up as a seller, you are obligated to take the hit. I have done so myself in the past.

Why would a shipper/seller not make things as easy as possible for a buyer to avoid getting savaged on feedback? This sale makes abosolutely no sense, it wasn't even like you were trying to get him to use an M-Bag or something.Mike B.
