Thanks for the comforting words. I have seen that name around before; can't remember if I ever bought anything there???? Box was in decent shape. Oh well, another time A couple people have asked me what my experiences are with this punk so here is the rundown: I bought a game form him one time, packing was ok but he waited 3 weeks before shipping it and sent it first class VS priority like I paid for, like a fool I still left him a positive. Other time he bought a repro from me, hit the bin in haste thinking it was a real pepsi invaders for $20 bucks (ya right ) so I refunded his money within 15 of him paying me and he STILL left me a nasty negative. I'd sum up those 2 experiences as him being a douche. (I just copied the above from the couple of PM's I sent to the folks that asked me about it via PM cause I'm too lazy to retype it again.)

Dino Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 Ahhhh... traps for young players. You need a 2nd ebay account, with the address registered to a friend's address in the US and voila, you buy all the goodies your heart desires from the US Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually just get stuff sent there, but setting up an account with a US friend's address totally slipped my mind especially with BIN's.

And hearing shawns report yup that's what would of happen!! lol No matter how much you beg to have it sent in a sturdy cardboard box, even offer to pay a little extra, some knob decides to pocket a little extra and send it in a piece of shit envelope; ya, that pisses me off On another note, just got a boxed game from a memeber here and nicely packaged! There are good sellers out there Maybe I should be happy I did not get it. Cheers, FB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers,FB yup nicely said FB!! I think I owe the most to Marc Oberhauser for all his great work on those atari repro boxes! I bought soo many off him! also I have a good friend that lives in Germany and she helped me with no end on my pal boxed stuff. and like wise for her i get tons of boxed games for her cause cause many ebayers here don't sell outside of here? Or they tell her $25.00 to ship to Germany? in the 14 years of collecting some of the best people were from Germany,Canada,Netherlands & Brasil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
