Sometimes I just don't understand myself

[Capetown]

Saw this listing this morning. An item that would normally fetch $500 easily, but it was listed for $150. I other words a steal:

http://cgi.ebay.com/Star-Wars-ESB-H...tem&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item335f68723a

The seller didn't ship outside the US however and I didn't want to ask Shawn or Chris again to forward it to me. Also the seller had zero feedback and I thought I didn't want it. :roll:

Now that I've seen Marks Hoth Ice Planet in the latest acquistions thread though I realize I really DO want it, and would take the zero feedback risk, but now it has been snatched.

I hate it when that happens. :evil:

Bummer. It's like when you don't have enough money for something and you have to watch it sell at a decent price to someone else... :x Happened a few times last month.

Was it specifically a sealed one you were after? I noticed they have a few opened ones on there...

I know Pete, but what I'm really looking for is 'never removed condition'. I might have used this as a trade object for one such.

Or I might have opened it.

Sorry you missed out mate but i'd have been a bit wary of a seller with zero feedback too!

At that price it was going to be snapped up pretty quickly!

I'll keep my eye out for another one for you!

Thanks.

I know I'll find one eventually. It's just the missing-out-on-a-bargain-when-I could-have-had-my-sweaty-hands-on-it-feeling that's bothering me a bit.

Emiel, jus look out for the feedback for the item then you'll know for sure if it was a lucky escape of genuine :wink:

 

[PGowdy]

Good point.

But then that could just end up hurting more... "arrived today, can't believe my luck, it's so ****ing awesome!!! Yay!!"
:lol:
