Quote from seller:

On 27-Apr-11 at 18:44:54 AEST, seller added the following information:
 Hi everyone and thanks for viewing my listing.

I have noticed that this listing has made it's way onto a whole heap of websites around the world which is very flattering but I am now starting to realize that perhaps it was not a very good move on my part to advertise like this. The listing has generated a bit of heat around some forums and due to the amount of views and the high res photo's, it is chewing up my web hosting bandwidth (the pics are hosted on my own site external to ebay)

I'd like the buyer to be happy with their purchase and I have not described the collection to a very good standard at all, some systems don't work some do - some are in great condition, some are not etc...

With that said, I have decided to drop the listing for now and decide how best to go about doing this again.

My apologies for any inconvenience.

Lastly, thankyou for all the kind comments people have emailed through.





......oops!!!!! Did I start the forums off?????????? lol


Sorry, I linked it to a Sci Fi forum to use in a debate on collecting.  You had a bunch of Doctor Who fans drooling all over it too.  :)

If I was you I'd break it up into different lots.  I'm sure you'll make more money that way and you can even ship some of the smaller items in order to reach a larger audience.

Good luck.

I have twice as much stuff as that, just as rare, wonder how much I would get.


Nothing unless you post pictures of it on your lawn and eBay it.  :)
