Go up one level in this thread


 I told him that I was
>considering emailing every seller that I see where he has a bid in on to warn
>them of his methods.  He didn't like that.  :-)

the funny part is..if you go to his web site you will see him complaining about
unethical sellers.amazing


>
>What did you need another Deluxe S9 for anyway - it didn't even have the box or pieces?

good question..
two reasons :

firstly it had to do  with the other bidders

the final bidders list shows the three top collectors in the world
lets not mention the exact order of who is first..second.. third
:))


when i finally decided to bid ,only the 20 dollar bid was in place and the
thought of a DS9 going to this collector (who also already had one) for a cheap
price(couple hundred dollars) just ate at my craw.
 as it turned out the other top collector won it but at least it was for a good
price

i am sure when he woke up this morning he had mixed emotions

happy he won it,but somewhat annoyed at the price


secondly, the DS9 is a very rare computer and having a second one as a back up
is not such a bad investment although i dont usually bid for "backup" purposes


what can i say..the competition at the highest levels of collecting is fierce i
guess


Honest Regards
Steve
