I appreciate all of the advice and support. For those that have asked, here is the listing
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&item=130280260230
The pictures clearly show an Emperor, but I clearly received a Male, although it was white. The sellers response has been
“I must disagree. It is the White Emperor made by Windstone. It was purchased as such and the pictures are a true deplictiontion of the item sold. I didnot have any other dragons that remotely resemble it to confuse it for shipment. With your box this fit exactly. So am under the empression you knew that this was the exact dragon you purchased. Please look thru the other listings and you will find that this is the same dragon listed as others. Please find attached the picture of the dragon.
Thank you “
So either I’m lying, they’re lying, or someone is very confused. The issue has been moved to a Paypal dispute, and is under investigation. I just need to get to the post office to see if they can tell me the shipping information from the package. I know UPS includes the package size and weight in their information, but I’m not sure about the post office. If they do, it should be easy enough to prove the package was too light. If they don’t, I may be screwed. Either way, I’ll try to keep things posted here as they happen. Thanks.
No, thats the problem. The picture showed an Emp, so I expected an Emp. When I asked them about it, they sent me a picture of an Emp, and said thats what they sent me. Either someone over there is VERY confused, or they’re trying to rip me off. It was sent priority mail, so I’m hoping the post office will be able to tell me how heavy the package was based on the label /shipping price. An Emp weighs twice what a Male does, so if I can prove the package was too light I might have some leverage. Otherwise its just my word against theirs.
Anyone eve have a problem on ebay of buying something and getting something completely different? I thought I had score a great deal getting a White Emp in mint condition for $250. I even sent them a box to make sure it got here safe. The box finally arrived and when I picked it up there was a bit of a rattle, and it felt a bit light. I figured the poor guy hadn’t made the trip in one piece. I opened the box expecting what I thought was the worst case, and found a White Male Dragon. The rattling sound was him swimming in an Emps box. The seller has responded with a simple ‘The dragon in the picture is what we sent you.’ If thats the case, how did it turn into a Male? Anyone else ever have problems like this? I’ve started the dispute process with ebay, but I’m not sure what to expect. Any input would be greatly appreciated.
My current wish list is:
Green Cat Wizard
Brown Fledgie
Brown Lap
BVP OW- Either the LP or LE
Flame OW
Rainbow Curlie
Emerald or Ruby Emp
White or Red SK- preferred Cinnamon
More to surely be added later.
Thanks.Windstones seem to be a lot like the old Pringles ads…Once you pop you just can’t stop! I just did a rough count and since last December last year my little collection has gone from 5 or 6 to around 80. Lucky for me I’m not addicted or anything….. 😳

And how does that differs from the every other day again?? 😈
I know this is the wrong thread for this, but here is my present to DM and Frozen. Enjoy…
A little boy blows up a balloon and starts flicking it all around the house with his finger. His mother tells him to stop it as he’s liable to break something, but the boy continues.
‘Johnny!’ Mom screams. ‘Knock it off.’ You’re going to break something. He stops and eventually Mom leaves for a short trip to the shopping center.
Johnny starts up with the balloon again after his mom has left for the store. He gives it one last flick and it lands in the toilet where he leaves it.
Mom comes in and while putting away the grocery gets the urge. A diarrhea run. She can hardly make it to the toilet in time and SPLASH, out it comes.
When she’s finished, she looks down and can’t believe what she’s seeing. She’s not sure what this big brown thing is in the toilet! She calls her doctor. The doctor is baffled as she describes the situation, but he assures her he’ll be over shortly to examine everything.
When he arrives she leads him to the bath room and he gets down on his knees and takes a long, hard look at the thing. Finally, he takes out his pen and sort of touches it to see what it might be and POP! The balloon explodes and poop is everywhere. On him, the walls, etc.
‘Doctor! Doctor! Are you all right?’ she asks.
He says, ‘I’ve been in this business for over 30 years, and this is the first time I’ve ever actually seen a fart !’Greater Basilisk wrote:I hope it helps. It’s always disappointing, not being able to congratulate somebody at the end of an auction. 😛
Thats true, but it’s a lot more fun receiving the congratulations. 😉
It looks like her sketches are going to fought over as much as teh test paints. $79 for the 1st one. Now if we can get one of some dragons……I have some wall space next to my william stout drawing that would be perfect if I had one of Melodys drawing.
Thats just it. I need it to finish the collection, but I don’t need it soo bad that I’ll pay that much for it. If I wait long enough, one will show up somewhere.

OK tell us what you did in your previous life???
hee hee…maybe he’s not allowed to tell…or else he’d have to kill us first 😈
If I killed you first, I wouldn’t able to tell you. That wouldn’t be any fun. 😯 😯Dragon Master wrote:Jvargas0667 wrote:I was just thinking that it might not be anyone with anything against Windstone directly, but might be one of the spoofers always offering phoney 2nd chance offers.

Actually, I was a demolition specialist. The part that left me twisted and scarred for life was the training in booby traps and other fun little anti-handling devices. 😈 Fortunately, I’m much better now…. 🙄 😯
