This guy can't decide if he selling a George Lucas Spice (Sage) or a video game system (Sega)

Funny

What makes it even funnier is that it says SAGA in huge silver lettering right there on the front.

I hate it when people put something in the title of their crappy auction just to get people to click on it... like this one:

STAR WARS COMMANDER CODY YODA #19 JEDI

It's just an auction for a crappy ROTS #19 Yoda... but this ******* has to put Commander Cody in the title so that when people search for commander cody, his auction pops up. Ebay should ban people for doing stupid **** like that.

I just sent him an e-mail and called him on it. Depending on what he says I'll report it to ebay and hopefully they do something about it.

Here's another guy that is doing the same thing. All his auctions have UGH, Yoda, Vader, ToyFare Vader, Saga, ROTS, or Variant in the title somewhere. And none of them are the said item.

This guy is also trying to cash in on the UGH craze. But the decieveing thing about his is he will put UGH next to some of the figures that would be UGH, but the picture clearly shows the regular version. It isn't just the wrong picture either. He has got some auctions for a UGH Gummi Mundi. ::)

About that #19 Yoda, it seems the title has been changed back to the real name of the crap it really is.

Damn. Now I don't feel so bad paying $25 for the CD of the White Album a few years ago.

I am happy with my copy that I believe is labeled 1,000,000 or so.  I wouldn't pay that much for something is just #6 and really not that rare.

Craziest things on Ebay are the shipping prices the dickhead sellers want these days.  I'm convinced there isn't an honest seller on there anymore.  ::)

Honestly though, shipping itself has really gone the roof.  I shipped a carded figure with $60 insurance Priority Mail and it cost me better than $8.00.  Add in a box and padding material and suddenly you're near $10 just for a carded figure.  It's outrageous.  :(
