Also I put high value on the lamination and your extra work "pimping" Rex. I appreciate that and so to me, my Shadows over Camelot: Knights, may be worth more than base Rex but you make it close enough for me. Only prob is it is part of a non-reponsive trade and I strive to be as honest as you do, so I have to wait for a response and/or an auto decline.
I also think highly of your honesty. You could have told me the figs were worth a lot less but you did not. Was it a test, no. It was what you thought they were worth. I had an idea, but I wanted you assessment and you were honest. I really appreciated that! On Saturday, August 4, 2012 12:22:52 AM UTC-6, RhodesN7 wrote: > > Hey Wolfe13!
