😆 Kaya! Well, I’m sure you can get her cheaper. If they are shilling this’ll totally serve them right, though. What happens then, the “winner” sells it? 🙄 (And it goes for hundreds less! Karma!)
Yeah, but it was hard…I am as curious as a cat. I really was trying to find out what the highest bid was….hehehe
That is how I ended up with my BEP OW…I was curious how much…and ended up with the highest bid…:) 8) I wasn’t disappointed…I love him, but I didn’t get the cheapest one for sure.
I hope they are shilling….that would make me feel better….the seller seems nice though…
I admit it! It is ME! But I am NOT WINNING! UGH! I went to $450 and at that point decided either someone has way more money or they are more obsessed than I am. Or they are shilling…that did occur to me..
This is the last coiled/curled for my collection, but I got a Hatching White Kinglet for way less…so, I will wait til she comes back up again.
I would have paid $450, but I am not going higher, I can buy a couple OW for $500…
I almost sent him a message saying that I hope the buyer expects Emp Pea and gets Peacock and lodges a complaint with ebay…..

Dear ruffianhedog,
If you are so worried about it then by all means buy it. This is an auction site not an unsolicited help site.
That’s exactly what he said to me…awe, I feel left out!
This seller is somewhat negotiable and was willing to come down slightly on the price of one piece for me. Just letting everyone know, you might want to ask about doing a slightly lower buy it now price on something you just have to have. It was a small difference, but enough to cover shipping.

The regular Oriental is dated 1997 and the Sun Dragon is dated 1998. I haven’t seen a dark Jade Sun dragon yet…..
ddvm wrote:The one that is really out of whack is the OW – it’s up for a BIN of $450 and there are still 17 (yes, I check daily) left at the store for $300.
I got my White OW, and I love him! But $450 is quite a lot, especially because they still have some for $300. I guess they are figuring the general public who doesn’t know about this site will figure it is a good deal…

A sticker! How cool! On the actuall emperor box, or on the outside box?
Yeah! On the actual Emperor box so it won’t get messed up in shipping.
JC, Thanks again for the card, it is actually a piece of art work. Gorgeous! Kaya
PhoenixTears wrote:Im kinda bummed cause there are some ppl here who Ive grown close to and wouldnt mind fronting the BIN money for them to pay me back (which you cant do on eBay- usually). Id love to be able to snag some of those whites for these certain ppl as proxy, but because Im in the middle of moving (tho sitting still at moms at the moment), Im not on my own computer and my PP account doesnt match my shipping and billing address anymore because of the move. It’s all just messed up and up in the air for now but will settle once I can officially give the bank MY address and change it on both PP and eBay.
But for now everything conflicts, so I cant proxy a couple of these I know at least one person wants. She has been very good to me here. Bought one of my old Windstones I was selling when I first came here and I proxied another BIN in a store for her so she could pay me back in installments which she has been the utmost responsible about. I have no doubt she’d do it again but I cant do it for her now so it bums me since she is someone I consider an “underdog.” In other words, one that never seems to get to the Flea or eBay in time to see the pieces she wants offered before someone else catches them.
But- I’ll be happy for whomever gets any of the whites that are listed in this topic as Im sure theyd be well taken care of. I still cant get over the $250 BIN and start price for the young white! Id bend over and kiss my grits if someone bought mine for even half that!
If the person wants the item that bad and they can not afford it, you know another will come up on ebay, so they should have some time to save for it.
I have seen at least one of almost everything so up on ebay. A good example is there have been 4 or 5 tortoises pop up this week.
I know you are being nice, but people have multiple and almost never ending opportunities to buy what they want on ebay….for much better prices than these….

Yeah and I see you noticed the green momma too 🙂 happy bidding 🙂 8)
skigod377 wrote:Mwahahahahaha!!! That box will never make it back!! I am just kiddin K 😉 I am paying her on the first for the emp because of embarrasing financial situations (I changed my direct deposit from one bank to another but was still electronic bill paying (To include Paypal) from the old bank. Good grief! After $500 in overdraft fees, I finally realized my mistake and corrected, but I dont really have $500 laying around. 🙄 😳 ) I will get your box back to you safe and sound. 😉
OUCH! Sorry about the account problems….
Ski, I know you will send it back home..maybe if you like have some sort of sticker or stamp from Germany, you could mark the box, or a mialing label?…I didn’t think about it before, but it would be neat to record all the trips the box takes, just for fun.
Eventually, I am gonna give the other boxes away, I only plan on keeping my BEP OW box and my Emperor box. Everything else ios pretty easy to ship.

I have no intention of “playing” but I am interested in the possible business side of it. It would be fun to open a virtual store or something there.
Or a dragon farm.The biggest problem I have had is getting the program locked up. I have a 2 year old laptop with a heavy graphic and gaming set up and I have Extreme DSL and I can play about ten minutes and the progam locks up and I have to close it and restart.
You need a fast computer and a fast internet connection….but you might find this a great advertising opportunity. I think a lot of people who like these type chat rooms/games like fantasy and mythical stuff and the Windstone line up should sell!
Hope I helped some.

Yeah, I want that box back…it has been good luck so far…I got a black and gold in it and JVargas got a Peacock from me in it and it came back to me with a red flame curl…
I know your rainbow will be safe, and hopefully that box will help other emperors get somewhere safe. That box will have traveled the Americans and Europe by the time I get it back.
I still have the sitting and rising spectral, scratcher.
