Re: Sellers of Guarded Inn as if it were 6067, BE ON NOTICE!!! —Larry Pieniazek

(...) Well can you paraphrase it??? We can always use a good chuckle. (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)

Re: Sellers of Guarded Inn as if it were 6067, BE ON NOTICE!!! —Richard Marchetti

(...) Key points were: Set 10000 is identical to set 6067 [Which we know is not exactly correct.] AND... I make no attempt to suggest that this is the original set.

Re: Sellers of Guarded Inn as if it were 6067, BE ON NOTICE!!! —James Brown

(...) Well, if you aren't particularly ethically obsessed, you can always setup a throw-away e-mail account at yahoo or hotmail, and use that instead of your "real" e-mail address. Nothing for eBay to threaten. James (Who would never ever advocate (...) (23 years ago, 26-Jul-01, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)

Re: Sellers of Guarded Inn as if it were 6067, BE ON NOTICE!!! —John Gerlach

(...) Or, do as Larry (hail, Larry!) has done in the past: post an auction item for "info on where to get the Guarded Inn", and set an opening bid at 1 cent. Encourage people to "contact the seller" if they have any questions - when they do, just (...) (23 years ago, 26-Jul-01, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)

Re: Sellers of Guarded Inn as if it were 6067, BE ON NOTICE!!! —Larry Pieniazek

(...) Lately when I jave done that (or selling empty boxes or "just the instructions" etc) I have had the auction cancelled and eBay warned me to cease and desist, on pain of loss of ID. Goodness I dislike eBay. But I still hold my nose and use it (...) (23 years ago, 26-Jul-01, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)

Re: Sellers of Guarded Inn as if it were 6067, BE ON NOTICE!!! —Roxanne Jeanson

(...) I agree with everything that is being said in this discussion. I don't care much for eBay either even though I use it once in a while. There is a auction site that is completely free. When I found it last year I was the only one selling Lego (...) (23 years ago, 26-Jul-01, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)

Re: Sellers of Guarded Inn as if it were 6067, BE ON NOTICE!!! —Timothy Wade

I'll add my two cents to this... I did something in a similar vien the other day, although it wasn't quite the same and on retrospect, I'm a little ashamed. I emailed directly the highest bidder on an original Metroliner to inform him that he could (...) (23 years ago, 26-Jul-01, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)

Re: Sellers of Guarded Inn as if it were 6067, BE ON NOTICE!!! —Richard Marchetti

(...) I am NOT stating any opinion on the current market value of the original 6067 Guarded Inn. It is the original artifact, and with box or especially in MISB condition, I would expect it to get more than the new 10000 set (how much more is a (...)

Re: Sellers of Guarded Inn as if it were 6067, BE ON NOTICE!!! —Timothy Wade

(...) I completely agree with you on this matter - it's whatever the market will bear. (...) I agree with you here again - I guess my issue is ignorance on the buyers part, and there is probably not much anyone can do about that. We're better (...)

Re: Sellers of Guarded Inn as if it were 6067, BE ON NOTICE!!! —Kyle D. Jackson

I think you are making an error if you are equating the market values of the Original ML with the Re-release. The original, (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jul-01, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
