** expired eBay auction **




This looks like it is for something from an online game, a character or gold or something, but I'm not sure what.



But it also looks like the seller is trying to avoid some kind of ebay requirement not allowing him to sell what he is actually trying to sell.



Any ideas on this? Does ebay not allow people to sell these online game items? (I thought they used to).

I'd wondered what a Run*s*ape was. I take it that ebay no longer allows characters to be sold?

What's so weird about that? I killed my party's paladin with a cheese spreader just last week. Spreading is a gruesome way to go.

The seller's using TurboLister. Probably just clicked the wrong category on a menu and didn't notice.

JG I'm getting tired of you showing up for our sessions without your cheese spreaders.  The last time Kingofpain had to lend you some of his and it was embarrasing..worse than those crazy dice you have!

Cheese spreaders???  You told me those were ceremonial Klingon Hegh'bat knives!  That's the last time I trust the word of a Trektard.  :roll:

This isn't so much strange as just something that makes me cringe.  Make sure Smarmy doesn't see this.  This is the line that killed me, "Shrinkwrap only taken off for picture purposes." 8O :cyclopsani:

The good news is that it doesn't say and has now been replaced.
