Wow, not only is that shameless, but it’s a really BAD shameless attempt for a second chance offer. Some people will try anything.

Got a busted Windstone?

Heh, I usually get about three of those for every item I bid on. Funny thing is, I got “Second Chance” offers on Nyalah #1… which I won!

*shakes her head* Some people these days.

Windstone collector in remission.

Question:
OK, so if a non-savvy ebayer got this second chance offer and thought it was real, would they be contacting Windstone and making an offer? If so, it would end there. But, if contacting someone else, how are they supposed to produce this second chance Poad™? Would they just show a stolen photo of the Poad™ to say they had it, take the money and run?

I think Windstone should add a disclaimer to their auctions that says there are NO second chance offers on any of their pieces. Or word it such that this kind of fraudulent BS cannot continue.

Except Windstone has done a second chance offer. The person ski had all the problems with selling her griffin to won a test paint Griffin and then didn’t follow through so ddvm got the second chance offer on him.

Hate to say it but I’ve been getting quite a few of those on various windstone auctions I’ve been bidding on.

While hiding somewhere in my head I'm on the lookout for white oriental dragons! Please let me know if you know of any available. Thank you!
