Aia's issue isn't sitting well with me.  Some of you all are much better at this stuff than me, but am I correct if in recalling the Grolm posting about his auctions in classifieds, and now the post has been removed?  Checking his post history, shows 10 posts made but only 5 remain.  I'm not really sure, did he remove his Acaeum ad at some point, suggesting the cancelled sale was deliberate.  Could someone confirm if I'm mis-remembering.  If not, that behavior is really bad form.

Don't know what one of these might sell for another time, I wouldn't sell out my credibility for the sake of a few bucks on one sale.

Aia, can you post the seller's details so we know to avoid him?  Unless of course the item turns up.

hmmm.. I don't know which way you should go on the ebay resolution. One thing I know for certain is that ebay is not in anyone's corner except for themselves. I would not keep your hopes on whether ebay will do the right thing.

I do recall seeing posts in the classifieds that Grolm put up. However, I think past classifieds posts will be erased/fall out of the list after a while as more and more new classified posts are created. There's either a time-limit on each classified post or there's a fixed number of posts. Foul or someone can clarify that.

Ok just to be extremely straight and honest: that post has less than 1 month of life...  Theauction ended on april 3 and he posted it nearly at the beginning, hence one week beforehand...

This is the post

Subject: [Ebay] Skyrealms of Jorune Collection (with rarities)

yes, I remember seeing that too.

why not just start the bidding at the lowest price he'd be happy to sell for or just stick a reserve on it? I know ea of those costs more than a .99cent auction, but it would easily avoid a situation like this. Seems very unfair to Aia.

Just got a note from eBay about this seller:

** eBay auction listing blocked by The Acaeum.  Seller is on our blacklist **

Look familiar? Supposedly, their account was "accessed by a third party" and may have been used for nefarious purposes. I guess that is what they call it when you attempt to pull a scam.............

Thought you guys would get a kick out of how this Dungeon Boardgame that I bought off eBay was shipped to me

Wow! That is definitely going in the Hall of Fame for poor shipping practices

I have no words.  Despite the odds, did it at least arrive unscathed?

It did arrive unscathed- other than a permanent label on the box hahaha
