Dang, I was hoping the Ahsoka & Order 66 droids 4-Pack would have been in that sale. I had held off buying extras after the last few Amazon 4-packs went on sale so often.

Post here if you see that go on sale.  I didn't even pre-order or buy one yet.  I'm not as interested in this set and like you say, they've all gone on sale at some point.

N-1 Mando Starfighter is marked down 32%.  Might pick up some of the TBS helmets...

Jayson is saying on Yakface that these and the single carded droid are going back up on Monday.

Sometimes their stuff can sell out kinda quickly, like in a few days, but I don't recall an item like this that is available in their stores selling out in an hour or two.  There is nothing particularly new and exciting about any of this so I can't imagine there was any kind of extra demand.  I would expect that these will be back online at some point.

Looks like they pulled these back down again...

Kris Kristofferson and Pete Rose had a good run in to their 80s, but Dikembe was only in his late 50s.  Too young.

And talk about a good run - Jimmy Carter is about to turn 100!

Scammers could take your stuff and send you back a bag of dog **** and eBay would say you're forced to take the item back.  Maybe eBay will flag their account as a known a-hole, but its easy to set up a new eBay account so I'm not sure that is really a deterrent. 

It is odd that someone would bother to haggle before screwing you over because they'll get their money back either way. 

Its the sad reality that massively positive feedback, a 25 year account, etc. gets you nothing these days with eBay.

I think the reality is that if you're selling on eBay you just need to accept that you're going to get screwed every so often and should be really careful about selling really expensive stuff.  You're already paying 15% in fees to eBay, and then getting stuff stolen adds to that overhead which is frustrating as a seller.

Knock on wood but I've managed to escape mostly unscathed from this summer's Lego sales I've been doing on eBay (although I'm putting the really expensive stuff on Bricklink).  Only one customer returned their stuff in the same condition I got it.  He bitched that the box was damaged more than expected when the the description and photos clearly showed the damage.  Whatever, I just relisted it and sold it to someone else.

I got mine from Amazon today.  I've already got a bazillion different X-Wing pilots, but this is still a nice set.
