Your right I just have to move on but I found the guys unbaging video on youtube he replaced like half the items in my bag but like you said I have to move on.


How do you know it is the same person?

Also, that is what happens when you go through Ebay.

BUT, but IF HE DID NOT SHOW PICS, he violated Ebay's policy and the action is invalid.

If you have a problem, contact Ebay and say seller did not tell you what you were buying.


So basically, someone was stupid enough to buy a swag bag off eBay and you're telling them to just lie to eBay about it.

If including pictures with a listing is mandatory, why do they even let you post a listing without them?

You don't have to post a picture on Ebay when your selling, he didn't violate any policies. That is not a valid basis to go from. Heck, most all big box Ebay companies just post standard pictures of the items. They hardly ever actually photograph the item for sale.

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

It's not against Ebay policy to sell an item without pictures of the items, but it is against their rules to sell an item without telling what it is. If you had asked him what was in the bag and he refused to say then you have some ground to stand on, but if you bought it without even asking and actually believed it was unopened (obviously a lie since when most people received their bags - including me - they were already open and a lot of the content was easily visible without even attempting to open it) then there is no real claim you can make, the guy is just a jerk and scammed you.

I would recommend nobody buy Bags o Swag from Ebay even if they say unopened. Trust me, EVERYONE who received a bag has seen at least a little of what was inside, and if there was anything good they would not be selling it, so you're paying x5 retail price for something so meh the original buyer doesn't even want it.

I would NEVER buy a bag off ebay. Too risky.

Actually, I find that I'm more invincible without pants, which is why I am not wearing any at the moment.

They've probably been ransacked for anything of value. Bad idea.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

Pwned

Just found my old Halo 3 Zune I got singed by Burnie, Matt, Geoff, Guss, and Joel from Rooster Teeth at PAX along with Ske7ch and Mantis. It's pretty beat up though. Anyone know how much it's worth, not that I'm planning on selling it(just nice to say "yeah, that's worth x amount of dollars") Also anyone know what a good way display this badboy would be?

You could kind of lean it up so it is titled up.

Micheal's has all kinds of display cases, etc that could fit a zune.

You may even want to get a shadow bow frame that holds objects.

Does anyone in the UK know of a good value frame shop? Wilkinson's is quite cheap, but I imagine there'll be a better value specialist, but some of the online ones I'm looking at are really expensive.

I wish we had Michael's over here, they sound great.

So, eBay made an entire clause that pertains to Bungie Swag Bags?

I think you know so much about selling bags on eBay because you sold one. Hypocrite.

No, many game companies, contests, and events have swag bags.

You are supposed to say what is in the bag.

The busts are numbered, what number was yours? My friend's was numbered on the bottom of the box. There should be a little sticker with the number or a handwritten number on the box somewhere.

back in june, when the second wave of swag bags came around my buddy and I both managed to order one.

his came about two weeks later.. and mine... took almost 2 months, even though we live in the same city.

anyway..

his swag bag was like most peoples... a shirt, two toys... and thats actually it..

he didnt even get any concept art like everyone else seemed to get.

so I decided along with my girlfriend that we should give him something to replace some of the things in the bag.

we made him a shirt out of a stencil we carved out on contact paper. my girlfriend did the drawing, the letters, and used an x-acto knife to cut out what was supposed to be painted. i painted the shirt and the visor.

The concept and sketching

On the shirt. spray painted on.

up close with quoted text.


as for the concept art.. well... we decided to try something different. my girlfriend is an arts major and found out recently that people started painting on plexi glass, you outline your drawing with a sharpie and then paint on the back of the glass so that the front is smooth.

messy painting.


example.


Finished.

I already handed these to my friend and he enjoyed them, and i just wanted to share this with the bungie community in this thread!
