This auction should be for the basic set.Personally I feel that showing the white box set and basic set together but selling them seperately is a scam.
Honestly I understand what is being sold in this listing, but would it be THAT much more difficult to take TWO seperate Photos and take them closer up to the EXACT items being sold for each listing? Not being mean, just seems better.

By listing a similar item, and not having to change the photo(load a new photo), you can significantly expedite the listing process for everything in that one photo. I hope that makes sense.

Two Box Sets are shown in the picture.One is White (Left side) and smaller and the Reference Sheets go with that smaller Box Set (Along with those three tan colored booklets.The other Box is larger (Right side) and it shows a Red Dragon on the cover, the Dice Bag and all the other stuff (Except the tan books and Ref Sheets) go with the Dragon Box Set. Hope I am not upsetting you, I was mearily trying to be helful. Best of luck with your listings, And have a nice week. John

Total.Three of those are for the 3 pens...........The two we are concerned with above are for items that will easily bring in $30 and $150, more or less.IMO That kinda scratch is worth a few more seconds of time.Unless your jpeg is too big in the first place.And to spend a little Extra time loading ONE pic is rediculously easy and fast.No that excuse is a no starter for me..
