I just saw a green monkey nut shot a small tan lizard(?) in a gunny sack.

So, in my Amazon account, it says the estimated delivery date for my 2 bags is the 14th to the 22nd, yet it still says that it hasn't shipped yet.

WAT DO

My estimated delivery was July 7-15... Anyway Chubbz, Urk said a few hours earlier that they were still packing stuff and shipping. And that "the best swag is yet to come"

Woo, just got home and my Gorilla Bag "of" Swag was here waiting for me.

>Master Chief Halo 3 figure
>Ghost Halo 3 figure
>"Splattered" sticker
>Halo 2 T-Shirt
>Manilla folder labeled "Misc Art" with, well, misc art in it
>Bag itself
>Signature card I almost missed in the shipping bag

I'll post some pictures later, need to find my camera. Totally happy with what I got, some of the sketches/the card I'll probably frame.

Anybody consider that it's going so slowly because we are all trying to access it and it's not even supposed to be public yet?

Also, if that is the case, it means it's also slowing down for the employee...he's probably going to just get up and go to Outback for a nice Bloomin Onion and we're gonna all be left sitting here wondering what the heck just happened to our mystery man

Makes me wonder how much these things will be worth in a couple of years. Not trying to make people think I will sell mine, because no way in heck I will! *hugs swag bag that is not here yet*

  • 07.19.2011 6:58 PM PDT

Pwned

Is it -blam!- up I'm excited at the thought of karma getting back at people who bought these things in bulk and are now selling them on ebay?

On another note I really want my Master Chief concept art print, anyone have a good guess when it will be shipping?

There are less than 2000 pandas alive in the wild. Donate to the San Diego Zoo to keep their pandas provided with food and what they need to survive at http://www.sandiegozoo.org/adopt/index.html

Something makes me think whoever put the bag up for auction was using friends to boost the price. 70 bids and $370 for something that will most likely have about $50 worth of toys and a T-shirt just seems...I don't know, I don't think that many people could be that stupid.

  • 07.19.2011 7:49 PM PDT

If the buyer isnt happy with it they can file a claim with ebay and get the money back, works every time. my bag shipped monday, if i could sell it without worrying about getting ripped off, id sell it still closed in the shipping bag for $400!

The next one is going for $91 right now with 1.75 days left. It could do the same.

You have to keep in mind that less then 1,000 of these exist. Collector's are staggering to get them. I don't know if you have ever heard of it, but the Uncharted 2: Fortune Hunter edition (Limited to 200) Sells for around $2,000-$7,000 now on Ebay. Yup, $7,000.

Yea... Its too bad. I'm not buying the whole "opened the bag but didn't look inside". My -blam!- I could see clear as day half of the items in my swag bag the second I opened up that plastic.

as long as you put in there no returns and use delivery confirmation and insurance there is nothing the buyer could do.

Yea I think the As is, no returns basically trumps any chance of getting money back. Poor buyer, hopefully they don't receive an empty bag or pillow inside.

Wrong! It doesnt matter how you list it. Ask someone who is familiar with Ebay, they will tell you the same thing. The buyer wins 99% of all claims, and sometimes gets the item and the money. I have a movie in front of me that i filed a claim on and ebay gave me a refund and i still am waiting for the seller to give me a return address, they say "case closed, no changes can be made" so I would be very very careful what you sell on ebay!

it says no returns where are you getting this "i can buy this and file a claim and keep my items" sort of attitude?

Exactly, when you buy/sell on Ebay you are under oath and contract to abide by the description/seller policies. If you think you can just open a claim anyways, that's dishonest.

Listen, I have been on eBay for 3 years now. I am a top rated seller and am a professional eBayest.

Now for all of you eBay noobs out there, there is something called "eBay Buyer Protection" and what that means is... If you receive a item that was not in the condition it was said to be in or etc. Then you file a claim, and get your money back. 98% of the time the buyer gets their money back. You only keep the item in rare instances. So yep.....

Yes, I know about that. If the description is flatout wrong, and you believe the seller is trying to scam you Ebay will be with you %100 of the way. But, sometimes the buyer wants to scam the seller out of his money. I've been through this before, and I've won all of my claims.

You just have to know the system.
