Well... I *hope* it's a box... but I have no idea what you have won

The picture shows a POA hobby box from the first set, but the description sounds like it's a retail box.  Have you had any correspondence with the seller?

Well, since the final price is $6.17, it's definitely worth the risk if it is only a base set.  Terrible description, though. Please let us know when you get it.

I've read it three times and can't make out what it is they're selling! Fingers crossed it's a box!! ;D

Please let us know.  This seller had more than one listed and I emailed him/her to find out if there were costumes inserted in the box or not.  I never received a response, so please let us know what you end up getting.  For that price, anything is a bargin.

Did this ever arrive?  What was it?

: rns91294 March 04, 2005, 01:27:29 AM
Before this auction ended, I wrote to the seller asking about what the box was.  I just got a response today that he has been sick and that the box is being sent today.  Although, he didn;t answer my questions.  So please let us know when this arrives.

Thanks!

Any news McG? What was it?


: Re:Auction win
: rns91294 March 14, 2005, 11:57:18 PM
Did this show up yet?


: Re:Auction win
: mcgonagall March 15, 2005, 06:17:53 AM
no no no no no
I have already reported them to paypal
Received a emails saying they have been ill
but that was 2 weeks ago and as everyone know it takes
less time than that for something to arrive from the USA .
SO i would say that it is a lost cause

Oh no - not another! I hope you get a refund via Paypal - the are still registered with Ebay, right?

We are having bad luck with Ebay lately, we Oz members :(

I hope you get it :( who doesnt want a box from the first set  


: Re:Auction win
: mcgonagall March 15, 2005, 06:46:39 AM
yes they are still a member of ebay . I just checked the feedback and they  have alot of delays over the last month so cross fingers the item might arrive .


: Re:Auction win
: EmmasOneandOnly March 15, 2005, 06:51:02 AM
Fingers Crossed ;D

I just looked at his feedback.

He only has 90 and 8 of those are negative.  ::)

Ebay needs to be more pro-buyer on these guys.  >:(

He says he was sick?? E-mails to buyers are NOT labor intensive.  :'(

I'll bet he had no problem spending the money.  8)

Good luck and do keep us all informed, please.  :) :) :)

Has this arrived yet?


: Re:Auction win
: mcgonagall March 22, 2005, 08:51:22 AM
nope and i don't think i will be getting anything either but as i have reported them to paypal and ebay i am sure i will get my money back .


: Re:Auction win
: ferdinand_the_yak March 22, 2005, 06:50:09 PM
Hope you left a nasty neg on his record :P


: Re:Auction win
: rns91294 March 22, 2005, 11:28:19 PM
Lots of feedback stating very show shipping.  Someone said it would have been faster to swim across the Atlantic to get the cards!!  So, maybe they still will show up.  Please let us know if they do.


: Re:Auction win
: mcgonagall March 23, 2005, 07:02:32 AM
Well if they do then I wil send them back there payment but paypal has already refunded me my money as of today .

I know i was taking a chances with the auction but even if it only turned out to be a retail box i would have been happy  so i really didn't lose out to much .


: Re:Auction win
: kbmum March 23, 2005, 06:37:42 PM
You're lucky that PayPal refunded the entire amount.  From what I've seen, it usually only secures partial payment.


: Re:Auction win
: mcgonagall March 23, 2005, 07:13:33 PM
pity it wasn't enough to buy that auction you sent me but i would have one problem if i got it and that was where i would put it


: Re:Auction win
: kbmum March 23, 2005, 08:36:17 PM
Come on, I'm sure you could find a place to put a 7-foot cardboard cutout of Hagrid! ;D


: Re:Auction win
: ferdinand_the_yak March 23, 2005, 08:49:11 PM
He'd make a cool roof decoration - kinda like an out of season Santa ;) Imagine Hagrid climbing into (or out of!) your chimney! ;D
