Naturally, I want anyone who buys from me to (...) (25 years ago, 20-Aug-99, to lugnet.market.auction)

| | | | | For the record, I have just mailed all the bidders and clarified the situation. I have also given them instruction as to how they may retract their bid. The message read: You have bid on my auction (above). I have received an e-mail which accused me (...) (25 years ago, 20-Aug-99, to lugnet.market.auction)

| | | | | | | Also for the record, Scott had appended his eBay posting to explicitly state the boxes are empty *before* anyone here pointed out the possibly misleading description. And Scott, sorry if my first contribution to this thread sounded accusatory - I (...) (25 years ago, 20-Aug-99, to lugnet.market.auction)

| | | | | | I received the email and retracted my bid. I had bid on this prior to realizing it was only boxes, no Lego. When I noticed that it was only boxes, I was glad to see that I had already been outbid. By the time I got the email, though, I was again (...) (25 years ago, 21-Aug-99, to lugnet.market.auction)

I just think the implied attitude behind "anyone with a clear understanding of English" is a little misplaced, given the fact that your eBay description is NOT crystal clear. If it were, you (...)
