WTF?!Jeez, at this rate I could sell my beat-to-hell OCE and live comfortably for the next decade. This guy is some piece of work. You would think people would stay away from his auctions simply because of his crappy Ebay handle. I'd rather buy from someone named "gerbilluvr69" than creep1962. On second thought, I'll just keep buying from Badmike.

BTW, does anybody know which printing of Chainmail the burnie brothers just sold for over $700? I know it's the 2nd edition, but was it a first or second printing of that edition?

Surely he must know that millions of gaming items were published worldwide. Surely he must know that he cannot corner such a markety simply by buying stuff on Ebay. Surely he must know that to buy dear and sell low is not good business. Or, does he?
bclarkie wrote:Truthfully, I dont think that he is trying to corner the market on anything, I just dont think he has a freaking clue on what anything is worth. Look at his bidding patterns, they make no sense what-so-ever. I think he determines the values for his store items in most circumstances by taking his winning bid[s] and multiplying the total times 3(or 4 or more in some circumstances, i.e $970.00 white box set ).
