You gotta be shitting me. Did the seller actually photocopy a hardcover and tape it to the envelope? Pretty blatant violation.

If you hit a Rowsdower, you get to keep it.

Well, that's certainly a new, and pretty transparent, one.

How about this one for "the actual face of Satan" to be used in "Advanced Dungeons and Dragons and Dragonlance."

But my all-time personal favorite was the guy a few years back selling his favorite 87th level magic-user character sheet. And as he told me over e-mail, he "really earned all those levels!"
Ya gotta love it...

I think it's actually a book not a photocopy. The book is just there to show the size of the envelopes.

Wow, that "face of Satan" auction description is rather twisted and entertaining. I'm going to have to add magicalkittycat to my list of sellers to watch.

Looks to me like the seller just placed that hardcover on an envelope to show the size and that it could handle those types of items for shipping (if you look close, the spine of the book is very visible towards the bottom of the pic).
