I think the questions sum it up quite well:

Q: well sorry for my name i couldnt think of a name and used my runescape username so srry 4 the inconvience and i use my moms e mail.o yea wats the diff from mk6 and mk7? and is epic a diffrent tipe of game play?

A: YOU HAVE BEEN BARRED FROM ALL AUCTIONS OF MINE AND PLEASE USE YOUR TIME AT SCHOOL TO LEARN HOW TO SPELL THE QUEENS ENGLISH


Q: The bid is for an entire set of 248 space marines, not per space marine. Correct? If the price is per space marine I will have to withdraw my bid. Please respond asap. Thank you

A: yes you are bidding on 248 marines as a set not per marine .by the way im not sure your user name was a good choice if you intend to use ebay alot ,it is possible for a seller to cancel your bids and i cant see conman been too popular with sellers ,infact i was considering canceling your bid as your feed back rating is still zero and you have a name like conman ,but i thought i would let it stand as the auction is far from over and you will be out bid at some point.

I hope the high bidder knows what he's bidding on. 21 pounds is high for a bunch of marines, Mk 6 or otherwise.

However, I have noticed that there have been some pretty good deals on ebay lately. I almost won a complete copy of AT, sans the rulebook, for $5 USD. Unfortunately, I was sniped in the last ten seconds of the auction. :(

Actually, if you think that's mad, look at this listing: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Hot-Whe....iewItem

before you say anything bear in mind it was listed under WARHAMMER-EPIC 40,000

???

No doubt ebay sees "Armageddon" in the item description and thinks that it belongs under E:A.

I would not be shocked to see all of the bids were from fake accounts. Look, all of them are "0" new accounts. I bet he pissed off the kid and he and his friends pumped it up.

Being rude on ebay is never a good thing. Let the kid have a name and so what. Make his mom call you to confirm her understanding it is a contract between her and you. But do not be rude.

Bet he gets hassled for a while too.

Yep, I went and looked, his other EPic auction was also pushed up by the same "0" New Accounts.

Aye- I thought his comments were funny but still a bit rash to post them up for all to see.

I now try not to bid on ebay auctions if there is more a couple of bids from zero-rated users.

Cheers
