How is an ebay auction "meant to be" somebodys?

i got a list from him in a private message and there was nothing of any value in there. only a few rares. It wasnt worth 40$ or even 20$

Thats pretty bad. Not to mention he has (or had, if some sucker bought it) an Isildur's Bane selling for that price. Pricing competitively is one thing, ripping someone off completely is another. Heck, I got an Isildur's Bane for 25 cents
at a store in Annapolis once.

HHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLL LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLDDDDDDDDDDDDD DDDDDDD ON

EVERYONE! 

I only did that to promote my store for the holiday season which is why i put all the high prices because people like to look from highest first. its only to promote my store and everything has best offers. i dont expect to sell a single card at those prices.

and i would like to pointout since opening up my store ive bought about 4k worth of cards  and have sold a little over 3k worth of cards back in the past 3 months. so with ebay fees im stuck in the hole 800$

But thats  fine. in my about me page u can see im doing this as a hobby. ive opened up hundreds of boxes and spent time making complete sets to have some only sell for 4$!

so dont ever accuse me of ripping someone off because if i sold all of those cards for 4200$ that would only pay for 2 nights out on the town here in vegas with my friends.  i dont need money and all this ebay work takes time from my real job. i do this for fun. i just want to keep lotr alive and i even offered free boxes if i get out to the live tournaments. I would never rip off somone. but at the same time im not goign to sell my 100k cards to anyone for 1$ either. I like running the store.
 

i will say again it was just advertising.

Ok, it was just kinda confusing. :up:

On a related note, are you going to get more Hunters rares put up on your store and give them their own "category"?

right now i only have about ten. but in about a week im buying 10 starter boxes from my distributor so that will be 360 rares that i will be listing in their own category. i just bought and opened 50 booster boxes of different sets so i need a little break. from opening up things.
also if you purchase from me and i know your on this site i always give a discount.

Interesting strategy.

After reading your explanation, the vomitting subsided...
