Insane Ebay Auctions (OLD'n'locked)

Korgüll · Post by **Korgüll** » Thu Dec 18, 2008 12:09 am

I asked that seller this simple question:

Are you Mike (ex-pe-di-tor)?

And this was the reply:

What's up?
I got yer message and i gotta be honest.
You are the 4th person to asked me that since the first auction I posted, sometime last week.
So this is very awkward for me.
I've been told that because my pictures are pasted from my online photobucket site, I must be mike because that is what he did.
I've also had people think that because we both live in ohio, it must be the same person.??
I have to laugh at that one.
But in all honesty I know mike very well. We never dated or anything but we have attended shows together through acquaintances and called eachother evry so often and talked about metal.
His wife though we were having an affair but nothing happened because i'm not just some slut. I believe in true commitment and so does mike.
But his wife left him last year sometime and he was bummed. But i recently contacted him because i was bummed and he helped me to set up an ebay account. Plus he showed me all his secrets that gave him success. He also brokedown and said that the reason for his failures and late shipments was because of depression of having lost his Family. He actually is not allowed to step foot in His wife's house which is owned by her dad. Because her dad thinks he is not good enough for his daughter (over some Bullshit), so the only time he see's them is when she goes back to the home that he built for HIS Family. It's some unfortunate shit. He has no internet, otherwise I'd have you email him. After i sell some of my demos, I will use some of the money to get his feet back together for hooking me up with an ebay account. Read my ME page to learn more about me. The pic is not me, it's an animation, but it describes how my heart feels had I shown it through my physical side. So, once I sell some of my tapes, i want to pay mike's cable bill, his ebay fees and his postage costs. Just so he can start selling his demos and LPs again.. I don't have much contact with him because his wife is extremely jealous so i will paypal him.

I'm starting to think most people from Ohio are rip-offs.
I paid $66 for the Northcoast Steel record from an Ohio seller (mbboxergurl)
It arrived warped so I contacted the seller and let them know, and they said to return and they'll send another copy, but that second copy never arrived. No refund... nothing.

i seriously have my doubts................only reason i could see someone pay that much for that cd is if they're greek and plan to bootleg the orig into annihilation to make their money back!

I bought one off this guy some weeks ago for 1/6th of this price. Did he get wise to it's true value or just greedy?

No way to tell. It's not uncommon for folks to contact a seller to see if they have extra copies of something once they hear that someone got a copy for a good price. Fellow I ordered a record from a couple of weeks ago told me he's already had a few people ask him if he has a second copy, and they're offering more than I paid.

emperor.zola had more than one copy of chronic decay/exanthema split to sell ... i wonder if he accepted any of the offers after all

sovdat · Post by **sovdat** » Tue Dec 23, 2008 4:37 pm

Judging by zola's seller's feedback it seems that the winner was indeed from ... Greece

For that split CD; probably not since both offers were declined:

That guy was expeditor. I knew about this for almost 2 weeks now, a friend gave me the heads up. These people deserved to get ripped off; never trust ANYONE on ebay!

Emperor.Zola is a good guy, but sells things at very high prices.

And here I was thinking I made big bucks selling this for €110 half a year ago. This is even more expensive than the first LP which was as limited but released 5 years earlier, I don't understand why...not to mention that this one SUCKS and the first one is pretty decent.
