OK, I just do not get it...
Can you say bid fever?
I just do not get it. Look at the bidder listing. These guys are nuts.

... I just do *not* get ebay some days.
I actually just had someone pay me $63.00 USD for a *pair* of logo dice for Battletech... and $53.00 for a single RAFM starship for the Traveller RPG.
I think I've cleared almost $2K on my traveller figs in the last 4 months...
... and one guess what I've ended up buying with some of the proceeds.

Are these people actually bidding on only what's in the picture? They are insane!

A thought just occurs to me...
I wonder if they thought they were bidding on a 40K scale army?
If they thought thats what they were bidding on the price would actually make more sense.
Someone could be in for a very, very rude shock when they get the package.

I really don't get it... the link, in particular! - maybe as I've let my account expire, I'm a p non-g?

Just received a nice email from a *VERY* panicked Father. Seems his young Son wanted a WH40k Marine army and the Father did not know there were two scales. ? ?
So the winner of Auction #5224215108 did not know what Epic was. ?
I sent him some links and suggested he needed to contact the seller real soon.

I did notice that. I hope the father, who didn't really know what he was bidding on, can get out of being the winning bidder. I feel bad for him.
