Wickeycolumbus #26 Posted February 28, 2010 Congrats toymailman! Anyone else find it ironic that the last one he needed to complete his set was "Out of Control"? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlackDS #27 Posted February 28, 2010 Well, I am only 3 games away from collecting all of the 1s on the rarity scale, loose, and I am very proud of myself! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philflound #28 Posted February 28, 2010 (edited) Well, I am only 3 games away from collecting all of the 1s on the rarity scale, loose, and I am very proud of myself! And I'm proud of you too! Any achievement is a good one. Set your goals, and once you reach them, set new ones! On a separate note, I just got screwed out of a deal I made with someone who didn't sell auctions on Ebay. I combined his unsold auctions for one price, and the guy went and put it up as a buy it now for everyone instead of just me. Someone bought it and he won't sell it to me now.

dwh #33 Posted March 1, 2010 Good job!

Dino #34 Posted March 1, 2010 On a separate note, I just got screwed out of a deal I made with someone who didn't sell auctions on Ebay. I combined his unsold auctions for one price, and the guy went and put it up as a buy it now for everyone instead of just me. Someone bought it and he won't sell it to me now. Phil Sorry to hear that Phil. I would say though that you didn't get screwed. When a seller lists a BIN on Ebay, they cant offer it just to you. If another buyer comes along and hits the BIN before you, thats unfortunately bad luck to you. I can sympathise with the seller if they go ahead with the buyer as they are contractually bound to do so. It does suck for you though. Congrats TMM, that's a tough one to get and at a good price it makes it a double cause for celebration.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philflound #35 Posted March 1, 2010 Actually he put the lot together specifically for me. I should have told him to just send me a paypal invoice. He had the idea of putting it up on Ebay. So there were a few boxes that now I have to keep looking for. And I don't have the lottery to buy all these rare games either. Phil Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Trade-N-Games #37 Posted March 2, 2010 Comgrats! That is a hard box to find. I saw the auction and I am glad you are happy with it. It would have sold for alot more if it was in nicer condition. Now I wonder how many people are looking for River Patrol? At least you got Springer that is a super hard to find box also. It must be very hard for a boxed collector to get a collection now. 5 years ago it seemed fairly easy and cheaper. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
