Nice Site / My Intro
Thanks for the invite NGD! Nice place you got here... I'm sure I'll spend lots of time here. I did not however like the reminder right on the home page that I got outbid on Chubby Cherub! I have needed that box for 4 years now!! Thought I was finally going to get it that time. Oh well, I did pick up CLU CLU LAND complete in box, SQOON complete in box, Secret Scout complete in box, PESTERMINATOR both Blue Cart and Black Cart CIB, as well as at least 30 others from dkazz (CC seller) over the last month, most were box upgrades but I did get a couple I needed. You guys are right about the hard boxes... CLU CLU and SQOON are terribly hard to find, especially near mint to mint.
Anyways I have raddled on long enough, again thanks for the invite!

Erik, it's good to have you here -- I've seen you around on ebay for ages, and wondered if you'd find our little nook on the web -- welcome! BTW, I used to go by Giskard on ebay (now I go by Nintedo_Age).

LOL about Chubby Cherub -- I can certainly understand, as that's a super tough one to track down! I got extremely lucky on mine, as it was misspelled in the auction title and I fetched it for around $75 I think.

Glad you made your way here braveheart
As for Dain's Chubby Cherub, I wish I knew that it was so rare back then :-( I only bid it up to about $35 and stopped. He got so lucky at $75 and the fact that it was a mispelled auction. Dang, I am so kicking myself in the face right now. LOL

...and boy am I glad you didn't know what it was worth! I was *so* damn lucky... normally I'll email sellers when there are misspellings in their auctions, but I couldn't bring myself to do it that time.
BTW, I found it by using a more forgiving search:
(chuby,chubby,cherub,cherib) (nes,nintendo)
This might help you guys out

Braveheart how hard are you going after that Trolls with the Troll attached. Send me a PM, not need in us driving up the bid on each other.

I'm tempted to go for that Trolls since mine fell through. Darth Vader ended up wanting to sell it on ebay instead. Oh well, he got more money out of it. Seems like several have showed up lately. This makes, what, the 4th one in just a few months?
Although Michigan Mike and ServiceGames812 still Snipe me but nothing I can do about it.
Yah, sorry about that, but that's part of eBay, and this hobby, especially for the harder to find boxes I've been trying to track down recently. Braveheart69, I often see you bidding up very nice items and wonder why you don't snipe yourself. If you're worried about forgetting about an auction ending, you could use a sniping service so you will not have to worry about forgetting.
That's what I do usually. Whenever I see an item I want, I put my maximum bid into a sniping service so that I don't have to worry about being at my computer at a certain time. The service I use is www.snipestreet.com which is completely free and has proven to be very reliable to me.
I guess each person is different when it comes to eBay and this is just my personal method, but it works well for me.
