Be cautious when buying from....

Ok, so I did the whole "buy it now" thing on Ebay for a lot of harbingers:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 0135948600
As you can tell by that, it reads to say that there was a copy of harbinger 1 in the auction. Being new to ebay, and being away from valiant, I just figured the #1 wasn't in the picture for some reason or another. Anyway, the package arrived today, and it turned out to be Harbinger files #1. I guess it's my fault that it was wrong, but obviously the seller doesn't know much either. I just felt it was best to alert my fellow valiant brothers (and sisters? There any females out there?) to possible problems in the future with this seller.

Sellers that don't know anything about Valiant will do this occasionally. The Harby Files pic should have clued you in on this one though. Oh well, so much the wiser next time. .

Sorry, kyanther. That sux. Sometimes you ride the bull and sometimes the bull rides you.

I think everyone has had a similar eBay experience happen to them at one time or another.

Talk about irony! I recently won an auction and didn't pay attention to the $9.47 shipping for 2 comics.

I contacted the seller, hoping to reason with them, but he e-mailed me back with some BS about handling fees and supplies.

xdom is the sellers ID.

I feel so...violated.

Ummm, did he at least give you your free smile? Did you ask for yours? Maybe that was the required code phrase to get the Harbinger #1 that is plainly in the item descrition.

Oh, I bet they were smiling all right.
