...so how come one of these went out on eBay on September 5 - see:

1 ?

The picture and text match the info on the LEGO site! Am I missing something
here?!?


Simple, look at the shipping date, it is one of the #$!@@#$#@$ who resells
stuff right out of the S@H catalog.

Well, one advantage if a seller actually orders from S@H to have it delivered
to the buyer directly, that particular buyer will get educated about S@H.

I just thought about this as another way to "auction" a catalog. Put up some
set from the current catalog that is particularly hot right now. When the
auction finishes, simply tell the bidder what the actual story is, and that you
will actually sell them the item for the S@H cost + shipping + the amount you
owe eBay for the auction. Of course if the bid ends up being less than that
cost, you get screwed a bit.
