My advice to the guy would be to never post auctions after smoking  a

Did this person--

A) Type in the wrong price?
B)  Have a delusionally inflated sense of the value of a dozen void minis?
C)  Believe we were bidding in lira?

:)



Wow, you're quick to judge, dude.  Did you ever stop to think, "They might be pewter-plated gold - what a bargain!  I'm seeing if he'll stop the auction early!"  I thought better of you, D.






;D

Don't even get me started about bad, badder and baddest.  Run, ran AND run...again?  C'mon!

Why D-- I can't imagine what I ever did to you that would make you think better of me.

Frankly, I'm shocked.

Sort of a "you had to be there" joke in the virtual sense.

Doesn't EBAY charge you by how much you are asking for?  This guy could have really screwed himself.
