Hi Ztaylork
It was my auction that went up for BIN and I didn't mean to chop off the fervour, but to add to it in a way (and maybe slide a bit of it my way  .
No offense meant and I'm glad the winner eventually got himself a card-it was a shame he was "pipped at the post" at the end last time.

Ahh this one

No I don't believe that deflected from your auction Ztaylork - if ppl had wanted to pay that much for a PT card his would have been bought on buy it now

...had there been the demand his would have been bought and yours would have gone even higher in my opinion.

The plan with the cash is to feed my dying credit card  dis-cix won it.

and paid for ..at the third attempt because PayPal rejected the amount on the first card or second card ( bank account ) so finally I had to put a new card with the smallest limit on and that it took !

I only wish there had been a cheaper way for you to get the money   ...oh all right that I hadn't been sniped with the previous one   or had seen the first BIN

Welcome dis-cix, may i ask whats in your HP POA auto/prop/costume set so far?  

Deep breath...

Sell sheet + Sell  Sheet for tins
Gold & Cards inc promo sets ( Red set on way + Silver 1,2 &3)
The 3 case toppers ( the Dementor card is the best of the whole set )
The 4 box toppers
8 of the autos ( Thewlis/Lupin still to get and I'm very doubtful about the Cards Inc preorder of Julie Christie auto...they have said it will be on its way soon...)
7 of the costume cards ( I got 2 of the pink Hermione and kept one with embroidery on it )
7 prop cards ( with imps and frog on their way )
Uk costume card
Honeydukes Candy card
and hopefully the peartree card

So Cards Inc set, Blue promos, Green promos and finish off the silver promos etc.

It was much easier to get a set of LOTR-FOTR

Hey dis-cix

I am glad you finally got a  peartree card - it was ours you were bidding on last time, you faithfully kept bidding and then right at the end with 5 seconds to go (probably an uautomatic sniper program) beat you to it! And I was in the UK - I spent nearly £100 receiving that money from America - boo

Anyways your collection is going really well - have you pre-ordered your PoA update boxes/ cases? I have gone for 2 cases this time (I went for only half a case last time as it seemed "a lot of money to be spending on paper"

I didn't know there was also a sell sheet for the tins I only have the normal sell sheet!

And the UK order of the binders hasn't come in yet which is a pain as I am waiting!!! (Even though Ben only paid £16 for his inc p and p from the states - it may even cost me more than that here in the UK).

Dis-cix if you don't have time to read the whole forum the most important thread is this one -

as it is the thread we are posting info on the PoA update set as we get it from Darren, it's not out til October so your bank balance has time to recover!!!

Welcome Welcome

I'm actually jealous of Dis-cix.. Roz steal his Hermione auto of him/her for i can have it  

[Roz]

*cough* if I was into stealing I'd have been round to pay Chris/ Gimli a visit  

[actionman]

Z-

All I can say is nice profit off of the pear tree card. I saw your BIN a month ago... NICE indeed.

[Roz]

Bad luck greenpaw, did you have a $2000 reserve on it?

To be honest I wouldn't have listed a card at this point if I were you - there's been 4 cards on in the past month and it's bound to quieten down now. There was my #18, then a buy it now at $1800, then Zytaylorks and I think yours then came on a bit soon.

[greenpaw]

Hi Roz
Yes I had $2000 on it.
I actually planned to list it the same day as Zytaylork but he beat me to it  . I really didn't want to interfere with his auction so had a high reserve on it. I really don't llike reserve auctions but in a way i'm glad it didn't sell.
No big deal really, i'll sit on it for a while. I'm in no rush to sell (unless of course i get an offer i can't refuse!). It really is a nice card and reminds me of that beautiful courtyard in the film when i look at it. I wish my backyard looked like that!
Cheers

dis-cix won it.

and received it just 10 minutes ago !!!

Yes it got a VAT charge from the UK customs ( though thankfully they accepted ztaylork's declaration ) and yes it got the ParcelForce "handling charge" ( aka rip-off )

[Roz]

Oh no - what a nightmare -  

There wouldn't have been a VAT charge on mine  

(I am MakTheYak off ebay - seller of peartree #18 - owner of peartree #15   )

[samwise16]

yes yes we know roz   come on now.. you do realise everytime you say you have one you make me jealous   and thats not very nice now is it precious..no...not at all my love

Hi all
Just to let you know i put the pear Tree Leaf card up again and sold it after a few hours via Buy It Now.
Ebay Item #6105024202.
I was very happy with this price and the buyer has paid already so i'm extra happy.
Now i'm off to finish of my "normal" Harry Potter collection.
Cheers
