Aggghhhh! Amount of spam going around about those cards is amazing. I got about five mails begging me to buy the "super rare" cards while I still could - "discount for multiples".

Cool.

I've got a stack of the Babylon 5 comics - every issue - which I plan to sell on eBay at some point, and a load of trading cards too. Oh, and some posters, Micro Machines etc. And a lovely embroidered jacket, which should fetch quite a bit!

I got given my 32X add on for the megadrive free from a game shop when I bought some games, because they couldn't shift it. I sold it on e-bay fort £120. Do I win?

I've just sent the seller a question...

"Hi,

No disrespect intended, but I was just curious if you have sold many of these decks, as Firebox.com are selling them at £4.95

Still, if people are willing to pay that for them, good luck to you! :-)"


I'll post any reply here!
