[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Lots of TurboGrafx-16/CD/Duo Games FOR SALE]

auctions end in 4 days.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Lots of TurboGrafx-16/CD/Duo Games FOR SALE]

i do not know if they have a buyer paying problem on game gavel or not.

Not that I am aware of, but when the site was a bit newer, I heard of a seller who left positive feedback without being paid and didn't ship the item (or expect payment) because the end price was too low.  I think you should be ok.

yeah since it isnt eGay i assumed there wasnt going to be any problems on there. but people bid please. some of the games have lower starting prices and everything has a photo.

there thats it for right now. i may put more up later depending on how these sell. these are all still on this list and available for offers, but once a bid is placed its on hold unless that sale falls through. i do not know if they have a buyer paying problem on game gavel or not. maybe these listings may create a market for pce/tg items to get listed there more.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Bikini Girls and Hawaiin Girls]

dude honestly avoid them. the bikini girls 'game' is so pixilated its beyond unenjoyment. if your set on getting them all than be my guest but its only a novelty item in my opinion.

And set firmly in the realm of enjoyment?!?  You're confusing me. 

beyond unenjoyment
so horrible that just not enjoying it isnt enough that it wastes your time.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Lots of TurboGrafx-16/CD/Duo Games FOR SALE]

I ordered Prince of persia, Dungeon Master and Chase HQ and got them 3 days later from Dreamcaster! Items are immaculate! I Highly recommend buying this guys collection! If I get more money soon I know im going to buy more of his stuff! I usually dont like making offers but I made him offer he responded very quickly with a yay and it was painless!

another happy buyer. im really easy to bargain with and usually dont pass in the long run. im down to the last bit on the list and would liek to get these moved along to better homes. everything is in beautiful adult condition. i take care of my stuff. send me your offers...........

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Bikini Girls and Hawaiin Girls]

well... i better add these to my want last then... are they even games or are they just eye candy?
oh... & yes please on the last one ceti!!!!...

[Off-Topic / Re: Do you like METAL?]

Load and reload are not bad albums, they just aren't what anyone wants from Metallica. They just seem to have lost the magic, a long time ago.. Can they get it back? Who knows..lets wait until the new album comes back. By the way, whats Jason Newsted up to thesedays? is he still in Voivod?

all someone has to do is force feed james hetfield 2 bottles of jack daniels and everything will right its way.
yeah i think newsted is still doing voivod. i also heard he has some other projects too. i just cant think of them.

[Off-Topic / Re: Do you like METAL?]

anyone even remotely interested in Metallica's new album this fall?

I am curious, but thats about it.... after the travesty that was St. Anger its hard for me to believe that this band can actually create an album I could listen to.....


Good Metallica Albums?

Kill 'em all Thru Justice for All.

The Black Album was .... O K

After that......... SUCK

my opinions exactly. the media promised the st anger travesty was supposed to be like old metallica. which is so was not. didnt even bother with that some kind of monster dvd either. my faith in metallica diminished after the black album. the black album was so-so but load and reload really sealed the deal on metallica losing their testicals.
metallica should have never quit drinking. some people are just meant to be fucked up, metallica is that case.

[Off-Topic / Re: Do you like METAL?]

Such a tricky question. Most new non-ironic "metal" is just fucking terrible. I do like (old) Maiden, Helloween, Stratovarius, etc but that Death NuMetal shit that is so popular now days is worse than the cock rock that killed metal in the first place.

And Slipknot can suck it.

hahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahaha.
i call em shitknot.
wife hates that, she likes them. i hate them.

[Off-Topic / Re: Do you like METAL?]

throbbing gristle. thats on my list of bands i want to check out.
i have heard a lot of good things about them. very classic.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Lots of TurboGrafx-16/CD/Duo Games FOR SALE]

Got my second batch.  Thanks! 

2 seperate orders and both arrived to a happy buyer.
please help me get the rest of these moved along.

[Off-Topic / Re: Do you like METAL?]

than what would you classify nine inch nails' pretty hate machine album?

[Off-Topic / Re: Do you like METAL?]

I've always been more prone to industrial. The most "heavy metal" band I got into was Ministry. Though, I love Black Sabbath, Led Zepplin - i.e. 70s metal.

ministry. excellent stuff. the very hard edge of industrial, almost metal.

[Off-Topic / Re: Do you like METAL?]

yep still going on. i will close this thread when its over. so if you can still reply here than its still good.

[Off-Topic / Do you like METAL?]

im normally not the kind of guy to go for promoting myself or the things i do in a spot like this.
but from being a buyer/seller of tg stuff i noticed a lot of the same user ids on ebay buying similar things. one of which was stuff like grindcore and experimental music.
anyways getting to the point here. i run a small diy music label: Sludgesicle Records.
www.myspace.com/sludgesiclerecords
if you offend easy please dont go here. but if you like crazy shit then what are you waiting for?

anyways getting on with the point of this post.

as a way to help promote myself i want to give away a couple free tapes to people on here that are interested. im looking for genuine interest not just people wanting a freebie. but i will pay shipping and everything.
but like i just said SERIOUS INTEREST ONLY!!!

post here or send me a pm.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Lots of TurboGrafx-16/CD/Duo Games FOR SALE]

How much for ys book 1 & 2 w/ map regualr tg-cd version?

You might get a better response if you shoot him a pm....

yep i handle business privately. pm me an offer.
i check this thread regularly to update but i prefer to handle an business privately.
i have a great reputation ask around or read above.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Lots of TurboGrafx-16/CD/Duo Games FOR SALE]

also...................
anyone got a dreamcast (mil cd compatible) bundle that they would want to sell off inexpensively. i miss my dreamcast.
im basicly looking for a complete console with a memory card (doesnt have to be a vmu) and a couple fun games (rpg/action/puzzle/kids) for a decent price. i could even trade some of the turbografx stuff i have listed here.

oh and if you have a tg-16/pce rom disc that can go with it i'd love ya forever. main reason im getting the dc again.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Lots of TurboGrafx-16/CD/Duo Games FOR SALE]

Groovy.

im super easy to deal with guys. please help me get the rest of these games moved. also too please look at the very bottom of the original post, i have some ps2 games i am looking for too. i may be interested in buying them but prefer to trade for them.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Lots of TurboGrafx-16/CD/Duo Games FOR SALE]

glad you two are happy. as everyone can now see i am totally legit. if anyone sent some offers before and i turned them down please recontact me with them again. i have rethought a lot of my prices for these remaining games and would like to get the rest of these into good hands.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Lots of TurboGrafx-16/CD/Duo Games FOR SALE]

Im doubtful every game you have shipped,has arrived safe and sound if mailed that way. What you prob had was alot of people cutting you slack for cracked jewel cases. No one here wants their stuff shipped in that manner. Seriously,scour the threads here for shipping complaints,and you will see that. Use better packing material. You can nab small boxes at Wal-Mart for under a buck that are perfect for shipping jewel case sized items,and they have room for bubble wrap or shredded paper material. Invest a little cash into better protecting what you ship,because you damn well know shipping nice expensive items in a flat mailer with two thin pieces of cardboard does not really cut it.

Just because your not on ebay now doesn't mean you can just crap out on shipping good with no fear of negative comments being made. And now your on a  forum where people will express their distaste in this kind of behavior when they see it happen or reported. Also, per your friends advice on this thread http://www.rfgeneration.com/forum/index.php?topic=7430.msg108582
maybe it would be best for you to go elsewhere. You obviously don't care for our opinion on it and clearly stated what you think of us.

it seems pcenginefx members expect too much. (example: $25 for bomberman 93 for tg-16)

The longer you stay here the more you are going to hear what peoples opinions on fair pricing and good shipping are.

and if you dont know what you are talking about then its best to not say anything.
did anyone say it was 2 thin pieces of cardboard?
NO THEY DIDNT.
the case was WRAPPED in cardboard. that means cardboard completely wrapped around the case and also overlapping. the tighter the package the best resistence to shock. like someone mentioned putting a small piece of bubble wrap in the center reduces shock because it thickens it. same thing with wrapping in cardboard.
just keep your comments to yourself dude. and he didnt say he was upset with the transaction. you simply took one statement and blew it way out of proportion. he even said it was all in very good condition.
your not going to buy from me. and i wouldnt even sell to you after all of this anyways. so what you have to say means jack squat. so you can quit your attacks and go bother someone else that cares.
you must be a tiger with the ladies. haha go play in the sandbox, big people talking.



"The longer you stay here the more you are going to hear what peoples opinions on fair pricing and good shipping are."

-your the only one making a fuss.

The game was wrapped in some thin cardboard and placed in a plain manilla envelope (no bubble wrap).  I was shocked that it wasn't damaged in transport, but maybe Mike knows something I don't about the secret art of folding cardboard. I would recommend that people tell Mike explicitly that they want a cardboard box.

Dreamcaster,read that quote well again. He was not congratulating you on your lackluster packing job. Incase you did not know this,and this applies to anyone, typically at postal hubs mail will come down conveyor belts to get sorted,and alot of time the people have to grab and toss it fast to keep things moving steadily,and lots of impact does occur as well as crushing from heavier items.

I got to see last nite at a guys house I used to deal with (who happens to run hub to hub routes for USPS) what kind a damage this type of sorting can do in extreme cases,as he showed us a Hyper 64 Sam Showdown cart that was damaged due to poor packing in a plain large bubble mailer envelope. The metal casing got all bent up and dented and he had to use pliers to bend it back into shape so the cart would fit on the Hyper 64 system.

This is simply not a good way to ship expensive items,esp if the person is paying for packing materials and shipping.
You can whine and bitch about me saying this all you want,but it doesn't change the fact thats a piss poor way to ship.

well, i didnt use a plain bubble mailer. and i dont use them either for that simple fact. its like mailing in a plastic bag.
once again mountains out of mole hills dude. reread what was posted. once again your talking about something you had no part of. it didnt concern you at all. he wasnt even upset at all. nothing was damaged. i know what i am doing when i package these.
from this point on i am ignoring any of your other posts since they are irrelevent.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Lots of TurboGrafx-16/CD/Duo Games FOR SALE]

I'm not the president or anything- but as long as you're entertaining offers which it seems you're doing now that's fine by me.  That was my only problem that you'd say "pm me an offer" while having fixed prices in mind.   Don't think we're all out to gang up on you -- that really isn't how it works here- we appreciate new sellers but are wary of some of the new ones who run in just for the quick buck.  I'll check your list again now but I don't know- I like all of my hucards loose and I have a good many of the games on your list.  Either way good luck with the sale.

PS- I checked through my ebay purchases and email and it seems that perhaps I didn't buy from you in the past after all- which confused me because I have a memory of pming you "ween does indeed rock"- I thought it was connected to a purchase- but now I can't recall the actual outer context. 

yeah i remember the message on ebay. i cant remember other than that either. and WEEN DOES ROCK!!!!!!!!!!

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Lots of TurboGrafx-16/CD/Duo Games FOR SALE]

I got both the games I ordered from Dreamcaster very quickly, and they arrived in pristine condition. Purchase with confidence, and he is willing to bargain on his prices.

see guys im legitimate and very easy to work with.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Lots of TurboGrafx-16/CD/Duo Games FOR SALE]

You are missing the point. The way you shipped it may have been cost effective and cheap and lame,but if you are actually trying to fool yourself into thinking its a safe ship method,it isn't. It really isn't nothing but a slight step above a bubble mailer. The best way is to use bubble wrap or shredded paper and a actual small box. Anything else can simply be crushed by heavier parcels during shipping.

i have always shipped like this and NEVER once has a game/cd/etc been damaged.
just get the stick out of your butt and quit giving me crap.
you havent and probably arent buying anything from me so your opinion of anything really doesnt mean a thing.
you have stated your opinion, on many occasions, about everything. and im sure everyone is clear as to how you feel. so PLEASE just go take your opinions elsewhere cause i really dont care about what you have to say. good day.
you can take it however but im being polite.

-mike

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Lots of TurboGrafx-16/CD/Duo Games FOR SALE]

cardboard is tougher that what bubble wrap provides. im also eco-minded and try to reuse.
the cardboard provides a stiffer packaging and provides more resistence to 'shock' then what thin bubble wrap does. trust me if something would have come down hard on it the cardboard is going to provide better protection than the flimsy bubble wrap will.
glad your happy. and i hope others will see im legitimate.
enjoy your game.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: is this possible?]

i guess. cant hurt to try.
funny thing though, i got rid of my xbox like 3 months ago.
if i would have known all this i would have just saved it.
dang it.
but if there is one for ps2 id like to try it first since thats what i got and dont have to invest (times are tough). if it is as crappy as you say then i guess its on to the xbox. but looking into it early doesnt hurt either.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: is this possible?]

i think im going to go the dreamcast route. its cheaper then the xbox route. plus i liked the dreamcasts controller, before i found the turbografx that was my main console. hence the user name. haha.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: is this possible?]

ok. so can someone point me in the right direction as far as getting a disc made for ps2. i could maybe trade a mid-low price game of my list for a disc that will play on the ps2 that has all the tg-16 games on it.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / is this possible?]

ok since i dont have a console to play the games im selling off i have a question to see if somethings possible.
could someone make a disc playable on the ps2 (since thats the only console i have) that would have all/most of the tg-16/cd/duo games on it. i always read on the list about flash carts and such just didnt know if anyone could put them on a disc.
shit even a disc playable on dreamcast, id go get another dreamcast just for that purpose. i remember i used to have a bunch of genesis games on a disc (like 700 or so games on 1 disc) that i used to play on my dreamcast all the time. i wish i could still collect but having a family makes that harder. obligations.
but id like to hear back and see if this is possible.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Lots of TurboGrafx-16/CD/Duo Games FOR SALE]

yeah i said i wasnt going to reply in here again but.....
i didnt call him a dick. i called what he did a dick move.
i am not selling these here to expect more for them. i collected these games for a long long time and i love the turbografx dearly and love it more then any other console. id make love to it if the hucard slot wasnt too big (hahaha i can jokeabout myself). i would much rather have these go to a good home than a reseller. i could have very well taken these to the game shop and sold them (probably wouldnt have gotten as much but i wouldnt have to deal with what i have been here). i dont take any of the 'bashing' for anything. say whatever. i could care less. its just words. i hate conflict, i would much rather walk away from it then deal with it.
as sparky guessed earlier, i am trying to feel out my prices here. yeah im used to ebay, but im adapting to here, just give me a moment to get used to it. and sinistron why would you second guess me if you bought from me on ebay before? you obviousely had nothing bad to say. why would i change my business ethics? i came here well recommended, i dont think i deserved the treatment i received. i was nice until the point where i was fed up. start over? come on man hold in all the buttons on your turbopad and give this another shot.

also if you look at my profile i signed up a while back. Date Registered:  May 09, 2007, 11:03:34 PM.  i think i bought a game off of someone and that was it i think. i cant remember. but point being, i didnt just become a member.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Lots of TurboGrafx-16/CD/Duo Games FOR SALE]

to take the time to go through every post and try to put together a list of every inconsistency is quite a dick move. nice. i like how i am being treated here. im trying to work with you people and i keep getting shit back. im done responding in this forum. i have expalined myself more then i needed to. if anyone is interested in a game send me a message or email and i will talk to you there. im done dignifying myself with responses here when i just keep getting attacked. real nice community guys.

i will continue to keep the list up-to-date.

i am just not responding anymore in this thread. other threads, maybe. but not this one.
thanks for the wonderful treatment (except to those few that were polite to me and on my behalf, thank you!).

**I AM STILL SELLING THESE GAMES HERE JUST NOT RESPONDING IN THIS THREAD ANYMORE**

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Lots of TurboGrafx-16/CD/Duo Games FOR SALE]

and im sure i might have over paid for some of my games but 'telling' me what you think they are worth and scolding me for my prices doesnt help either. just figured id add that.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Lots of TurboGrafx-16/CD/Duo Games FOR SALE]

im not basing my prices on ebay. if anyone is familiar with my listings on ebay for the most part i was the lowest price in the stores section. i atleast tried to. ebay prices add a lot: fees, packing, asshole-ism, etc. and i know that doesnt apply here.  im trying to adjust my prices but with not a lot of people (5) not responding in a pm/email and then once hearing a price walking away without haggeling doesnt help. a little bit more openness would be cool. I AM VERY LAID BACK AND REASONABLE WHEN IT COMES TO DEALS or anything for that matter.
if you ever bought from me on ebay you know my service was good.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Lots of TurboGrafx-16/CD/Duo Games FOR SALE]

yeah i have had a lot of refrences to the ebay listing for bomberman 93. i have 40 in it. i would like 50 but 45 is best i can do. the 5 extra dollars covers shipping and a small profit. thats why my bomberman is $45. once these dwindle down my prices will too. the first month or so is going to be some solid prices but after that if bomberman 93 doesnt sell ill drop it to $40. everyone see my system to this. offers first, prices maybe later as the list dwindles. eventually these all have to go but im not in a big hurry to compensate.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Lots of TurboGrafx-16/CD/Duo Games FOR SALE]

thank you. finally a voice of reason.
im not trying to be difficult, an ass, rude, etc with anyone with anything. i am the most stress free person out there. stress causes me ulcers so i cant get stressed. just hear me out people. the markets i am used to dealing with (even game stores) have prices i am used to. if an offer is below my expectations i still may consider it. if anyone that has been communicating with me over PM or email can attest to my politeness and easiness to work with. if you approach me with a calm tone i am that way back.
people get too defensive on forums. lighten up with me im just an old stoner that loved his games but has to get rid of them to live. ebay was my income. i have a wife and kids. i have obligations. i am not trying to sob story this but just see my perspective.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Lots of TurboGrafx-16/CD/Duo Games FOR SALE]

im not being a smartass. im trying to understand what your saying. and where have you guys seen bomberman 93 for $25. and i dont really care for the tone im getting either. im not desperate to sell these. I AM SIMPLY OFFERING THEM TO THE PEOPLE THAT WOULD RESPECT THEM MORE!!!!!! if you dont like my prices then so be it. bitching about it isnt going to get anyone anywhere.
man a lot of you are rude and expect too much out of something.
where is this "market" where these games are so low priced?
i was a long time collector and i never could find them for below cost.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Lots of TurboGrafx-16/CD/Duo Games FOR SALE]

so you expecting to pay the same price for a game that either has or doesnt have the manual. thats what im hearing. sound like if it doesnt have all five then its worth the same no matter of its other contents? i dont agree if thats the point.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Lots of TurboGrafx-16/CD/Duo Games FOR SALE]

thats why i am taking offers. my prices are probably going to be higher then what all of you have in mind, but i am a bargainer. going back and forth on a price til an agreement is made isnt hard. a few of the games i have NO price in mind and all i can do is entertain offers. im not difficult. i hate losing a sale but im not going to settle below market.

im not saying the recycled case makes it complete. it just has more of a value (manuals and cases were always $3 each when i got them from tzd). and having a manual doesnt make it loose. all it would be missing is a box and tray. still better then a hucard without a manual. i put no value on the sleeves, every game should have a sleeve reguardless.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Lots of TurboGrafx-16/CD/Duo Games FOR SALE]

once again bomberman 93 is NOT a loose hucard. if you read my description... "most of them are complete with cases and manuals with the rare exception of a few. if it is missing anything i will put a note. if nothing then the game is complete (i dont have any boxes). in relation to the games that say "comes/included with a hucard case", these are the games that were issued without cases and simply come with a official hucard case with a generic label with the games title. just wanted to clear up any confusion."
if the game says "comes with a case" that still means the manual, and hucard sleeve are there too. just a blank official hucard case. 98% of the games listed are complete.
EVERY GAME HAS THERE HUCARD SLEEVES.
EVERY GAME HAS ITS ORIGINAL CASE (with exception to the games issued without cases and raiden, sinistron, and night creatures). night creatures is the only hucard/hucard sleeve only that i have listed.
apparently people are confused and i am trying to clear this up. you all are stating prices for hucard only games when mine are complete.
and selling my games here i figured id offer to people that appreciated it as much as i did/do. i loved my turbo grafx. only reason i started selling these off on ebay a bit ago was my deal with my wife was that i could buy magical chase, bikini girls, might and magic 3, etc but once we were ready to get a house i was to sell them to get money together for a down payment. and if you saw the ebay listings i had then you already knew that as it was in every listing.
and i would hope that georges recommendation would put everyone as ease.
i may have some prices in mind but if it gets to the right price im sure to sell it. thats why offers are best. some of these rarely ever went on ebay and when they did i went for them, some i found in used stores.
and whats wrong with making a profit. you expect me to just sell real low cause its your 'thing' come on. i figured id offer the games to the peopel that would appreciate them more, instead of someone that is just going to resell them or put them on ebay themselves. if you have a problem with my prices then fine, dont buy from me. you can just wait along til another ever shows up. i will not take a loss.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Parasol Stars for sale at Trade N' Games.Com]

when i sold it on ebay i sold it for $30.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Lots of TurboGrafx-16/CD/Duo Games FOR SALE]

the prices for these games waves in so many directions when you consider marketplaces. the prices i have in mind for some are high, i used to do ebay thats why. im an easy guy to work with. right now i am in negotiations on a few games with a few people. the point in offers is this:
obviousely im going to get a LOW offer. ($25 for bomberman 93.... come on its $45 no matter where you go)
i counter with a price lower then what i actually had in mind.
you in turn offer back another price.
thats the point.
i dont have my console anymore so playing these is not going to happen and having them sit here isnt going to do anything either for me.
i can understand the weariness. but i have already sold a game and that buyer got their delivery confirmation number TODAY when i shipped it this morning (they paid last night).
so sometime this week they will let everyone know i am legit.
and dont get mad if your offer is declined. im not trying to lose money. i have invested in these. i used to have EVERY game except for less then half of the duo games. i was a long time collector, im not stupid, or desperate. my lowest price is what i have in them, plus i need to make a profit and cover shipping.
i know im legit, and it will prove in time.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Lots of TurboGrafx-16/CD/Duo Games FOR SALE]

whats wrong with taking offers. just tell me which games you are interested in and what price you have in mind or if you have any "collection" games for ps2 (i.e. retro games) for trade and go from there.
you guys will see in a week or so when the couple people that i have worked deals with get their games and post that im legit. im a totally honest person. if i was trying to scam why would i tell you all upfront why/how i came about selling these games here. why would i go through all that and be so upfront. plus i have a recommendation from george on the turbo list.
i dont blame anyone for being cautious. im sure i will prove myself to everyone in time when people give me a chance.

if you wanted to know why i was suspended from ebay, ask. others have and i gave them the same reply.
i was selling an ebook on ebay and they ended my listings so i put another listing for the same ebook but sold it as printed and mailed, which it was. they said i said "will receive withing 48 hours of payment" which it did not. they also said it was digitally delivered which it was not. and they suspended my account because of that. read my feedback on ebay. i dont rip people off. http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&userid=ween_rocks&ftab=AllFeedback&sspagename=STRK:ME:UFS there is an auto link to my ebay feedback. and yeah i dont regularly post on rfgeneration, but i have posted there off and on and sold/traded many times and many members can back up my excellent sale/trade behavior. here is a picture of everything.


i condensed a few other posts into this one post.........

i can provide pictures of any game on demand. either as a group or solo. all of these are on hand.
also i am paypal verified and always ship wit ha delivery confirmation.

also another recommendation posted very recently on the turbo list:

Mike Stock is a member of the List who has been having some difficulty posting. He asked me to let you know he has a big list of things for sale including Bomberman '93, Ys I & II with map, Bikini Girls and more. If anyone out there is interested, his e-mail is: ween-rocksNO@SPAMhotmail.com . I have dealt with him before. He is a good trader so no one out there should hesitate to deal with him. thanks, george



i hope i have provided enough recomendations and proof that i am legitimate.

even though the ebay account is suspended you can still "contact seller" in the menu on the right hand side. i cant reply through ebays message service but if you leave the email address visible i can reply directly to that with the sent message still attached in the return email. i can prove who i am.

also here is part of the suspension email i got from ebay:

 
 MC005 eBay Registration Suspended: Miscategorization of Digitally Delivered Goods ( 213084470)   
 
Dear ween_rocks(ween-rocksNO@SPAMhotmail.com),

We regret to inform you that your eBay account has been suspended indefinitely for violating eBay's Miscategorization of Digitally Delivered Goods policy.

To ensure that members can find what they're looking for quickly and easily, items need to be listed in the appropriate category. Sellers need to choose the category that most accurately describes their item.

*****Please read this important information to help you bring your future listings into compliance.

Digital goods are often reproduced at little to no cost to the seller. On eBay, this creates the potential for Feedback Manipulation. To preserve the integrity of the Feedback system, all goods that can be digitally downloaded or transferred electronically (including e-mail delivery) must be listed using the Classified Ad format in the Everything Else>Information Products category only.




i am appealing their decision, and awaiting a response. so i may be back on ebay.
