I did this once myself, and I felt very bad about doing it. A seller had, among some other items, an Adventure in Serenia. I convinced him to sell it to me for a rather cheap price. Then the next day he told me that somehow his ferret had gotten into the Serenia and had eaten it up so badly that it was total garbage and he threw it out. Needless to say, i didn't believe him, and I knew something else was going on, but I took it as a sign that I was not meant to engage in that sort of behavior.

This guy had lots of other interesting stuff as well for sale, was tracking it myself only to find them all closed. Well, for a good enough offer I guess anything goes, anyone can be tempted :) I rarely ask myself, only done it once actually, couple of weeks ago but that seller accepted. Not one of these 20 year old games, only 6 years old. Hmm, maybe I shouldn't have said that.. it is not oldskool.. I might get banned from the list.. bugger.. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dan Chisarick" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Software Collectibles Mailing List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, January 28, 2004 2:18 AM Subject: [SWCollect] Deal on the side??? > While certainly it could be for legitimate reasons, when all of a > sudden a cluster of desirable, related items is ended early, I can't > help but wonder if there was a little backroom negotiation.
