That Paperboy 2 auction might be one of those just to bring attention to his other items.

Found this on local kijiji. Most likely this is a joke by a collector but it could be a severely naive noob

Upon rereading it can't be serious. Silliness for certain though.

^Oh man I messaged that guy and told him he messed up by putting the BIN at $350 instead of $35. And he changed it to $150!

Godzilla 2 is actually semi-rare, and I mean that's not THAT crazy, or am I missing something?

^ Yeah, he's got some nice sealed items...they're just WAY overpriced. I'm sure he'd accept much lower offers, unless he doesn't really want to sell.

Well here's a message I got on eBay that I didn't expect to get. Let me know if I'm overreacting but I really don't see the point in keeping with touch with someone after a transaction is over.

"Just checking in to let you know that I am throughly enjoying the (SEGA) Visions magazines. Would you be interested in keeping in touch on a level outside of ebay?"

I feel like responding  "Uh...no." but instead I think I'll just ignore the message.

Wtf? I'd feel exactly how you do...once the transaction is over that's it.

lol, that made me laugh.

Did you include an autographed photo with the sale or something?


EDIT-- A good response would be: "Fuck you--I have enough friends"

Thanks guys thanks for the reinforcement. I just had to share that because it  seemed so creepy to me.

Also I think I may have to go with the "Fuck you---I have enough friends." response. I'd love to see how he'd respond to that.

Oh and one last thing no autographed photos or anything. I just sent the items out, maybe he's not used to such fast shipping and excellent service.
