Has ebay changed their second Chance Offer policy such that other people can see the items? I had this happen in August; I sold an item and had a duplicate. Since the 2nd place bid looked good to me, I sent that person a 2nd Chance Offer. Before that person accepted the offer, I got some emails from other people asking about the auction! I thought no one could see those except the person the offer was being made to?Khnud wrote:I've seen quite a few of these "for one person only"-auctions lately.

The thing that kills me about that Maiden single and other high-dollar Maiden items is that YOU CAN GET THE SONGS ON A HUNDRED OTHER PIECES OF VINYL! Really, there's nothing new to pay for on this single- no exclusive song that's hard to come by, no exclusive artwork you can't find on other versions, nothing. Folks think it's nutty to pay a lot for other metal rarities, but when you buy a Solar Eagle or Crowhaven or Leather Nunn or Paradoxx at least you're getting songs that weren't also released on an easy-to-find $20 version of the exact same single put out at the same time around the world 
Well, there's my little rant for the night

I think this time this was released the press runs were quite small for vinyls?nabel wrote:Is this really this rare?
