Anyone know about this?  The guy hasnt emailed me back with more info.  It just pisses me off when you list like that.

"Description

Nothing else with it, no shipping, no condition, nothing......

I wouldn't bother with bidding on that since the guy didn't include any information in his auction, a bit of info and a few pictures would have been nice. :roll:

I HATE WHEN PEOPLE DO THAT!!!  If you have a particular figure in mind that you would like to get for an item, why don't you start the bidding at that amount, or put a reserve on it?  Why would you let the auction ride out, and then just not let the person have it because you feel it's worth more? I won these a little while back,

but never heard from the guy after 3 e-mail attempts.  I would have left negative feedback, but you always have to worry about retaliation feedback.  Same thing happened with a brand new GM ICM that I won for $30.  After several failed attempts to get an address to send the money order to (the only form of payment he took), he left me positive feedback and relisted it with an opening bid of $40!  People like that should be kicked off eBay immediately.  :2gunfire:
