Guess I won't be buying from you anytime soon then, Big Grin but I have bought a lot from that Seller. He ships things quickly... one of my favs in fact. Thumb Up I just don't understand why he dislikes happy people. Big Grin

Just won the bidding for a complete set of Dinosaur Attacks for £2.40. Thanks to barobehere for making me aware of this set.

I think I'll go after Mars Attacks next.

I won a Xena card lot for £11.75
Base sets: Season 1, 2, 4/5, 6, Beauty& Brawn and Art&Images.
Also included were (sellers words) "Xena costume cards 1 to 73 all costumes all characters"... I didn't think there were that many, but it'll be fun seeing what I get Smile

That's truly bizarre about the costume cards - you'll definitely have to say what you got. Costume cards certainly don't go up that high (C1-13 + DC1-8 + AC1-3 in B&B, C14 in Quotable binder + AC4-10 in Quotable). Took a look at that listing and that description seems to be Beauty & Brawn (which is numbered 1-69 & 71-73 because of a misprint).

That's one of the thoughts I had as well... I need several of those sets anyway so will still be pleased (after I take seller to task in feedback lol if that's the case!)

The way I see it, they didn't know or care enough about it and sold it... and now it's in the hands of someone who apreciates it for what it is and not it's value and not to be sold off. Wink
