I just asked him this:

In your auction you say that "this software is UNTESTED as it is STILL SEALED". Later on you say that "this item, while tested as working, is sold on an "as-is" basis". So is it tested or not? And if it is tested, I'd love to know how you tested it without breaking that well known game-box-sealing method, the plastic bag!

In the UK I used to buy my Amiga games in boxes. That was the nice thing about them - not in these plastic "jewel" cases that they use now, but good old boxes. Sometimes with cardboard sleeves. But never sealed in plastic bags. The only bit that would be in a plastic bag would be the floppy disks and manual - inside the box!

In Finland, most shops kept the game disks in separate place behind locks. They also had big "All boxes are empty" -signs (in other words, "nothing worth stealing")

So if any of the games WERE originally in plastic bags, they were have been opened by the time they "hit the shelves"

Poor Josephine actually put a bid in for this item.  I hope she knows what she is actually getting and is not disappointed.
How are you helping the Amiga community? :)

The really sad thing is that isn't at all odd for eBay. It's more like business as usual. Complaining to eBay like spitting in the wind.
