This is the same outfit that tried to charge me $20.00 to ship a few packs of dice, he was whining that they went to cheap on ebay. (My response to him was don't sell them on Ebay then)His big sale...........pay the same price
red_bus wrote:I think he actually paid $2,800 for this back in March. If I recall, the box looked terrific (as it still does - you can see in hierophant's pics) which explained in part why the auction went quite high. I also think that hierophant has given more information on the condition of the books than the previous seller.

I also never opened the books and read through them, pulling at the pages and such. I flipped them open carefully, but nothing was falling out of them I am 100% sure. If anybody has a link to my original auction, I think you'll see I described the books quite accurately. I also took way more close up pictures and stuff. I was kind of confused as to what I was reading as well when I checked his auction, then I saw the box bottom and knew it was the one I sold. Zen

bombadil wrote:Steven's right, it did go for $2800 (checked my email from March 31), but I couldn't follow the old link to the original auction.Zen, if you didn't open the books, you might not have noticed loose pages. I'm not questioning your honesty, just your judgment ( ). Maybe you overlooked it, or maybe hiero put different books in your box. I hope we can figure it out.
