[QUOTE="Good Cents, post: 3312402, member: 100720"]Do you regret not buying it? If so, don't. I collect stamps and when I started looking at eBay many years back I was drawn in as well. I bought a big collection for over $1k from a woman whose mother passed and she did the same kind of thing where she wasn't describing exactly what was in the collection, supposedly didn't know what was in it, etc. Suffice it to say that it took me 3 years to unload the pile of junk that I bought and I never even broke even. It was my eBay lesson that taught me to be smarter and not bid blindly with the allure of what I WISH I was getting, and to rather KNOW what I'm getting. So, it's good you let this go. If you want Estate Sales go around your local neighborhood and you'll be able to hold in your hand what you're buying and KNOW what you're getting. And remember, if it seems too good to be true, it most likely is. Good luck.[/QUOTE]
