Thanks for all your help. This has at least made me feel better. I know the set
was sealed when I sent it, so it's frusterating when the buyer tries to
manipulate you. I've offered him several options and he just keeps choosing to
complain about everything I offer.

I suppose I'll have to come up with a term list similar to Larrys to avoid this
problem in the future.

Let me ask you guys one more question...if you were a serious collector and
were anal about the condition your set was in, would you buy it off Brickbay or
Ebay without asking to see "Real" pictures of it first? I always ask for
pictures if the person is using some stock image.

(...) John, First off I would like to say that I'm sorry to hear about your problems but I'm kind of glad you brought the topic up for discussion (if it's been discussed before, I would guess it has, I didn't know about it).

John, You have to understand that when listing a set in MISB you have the power to command and expect top dollar for the set in question which makes it a factor worth looking into.
