Gordo, you kind of goofed, I mean you say "unopen box" but you shot contents without explaining how that can be done without opening the box. Yeah, I can guess or assume, but I dont, especially on ebay. gordo enlightened us with:

Well couldn't he use the contents from his other OPENED box to simulate what the internal contents would look like? That's what we call a real simulator Ebay item. Stick to that story Gordo, you'll be safe. Nascarob PlowBoy wrote:

You are quite wrong Sir........... The box is unopened. The front flap is open from the factory so you can read info about the game off the shelf. The box is tape sealed, top and bottom. What contents are you talking about? The CD and manual are sealed inside the box. "PlowBoy" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:17sBf.9549$NE.9380@dukeread12...

Hey Robert & Gordo, 1st off sorry. I was just pointing out something that I would consider weird, not as a warning to all other buyers, crap it was for a fellow sim racer, who was selling something. and to Robert directly: I didn't goto ebay to spread the word of some foul play or anything, nor attempt to crucify him, for chr!sts sake. Hell I even said I could figure out how (that which it turns out didn't happen) could have happened, but I had the opportunity to read his post here, Ebayer's might not had that luxury? I pointed out something I thought was inconsistent. Yes, as it was a comment that was in error anyhow (I didn't look hard enough at the pics, my bad sorry again, Gordo). 2 things I thought of when I posted was, he might have had to point that discrepancy out, or be ready to answer if someone asked that was bidding or something: If you all thought worse of the comment, wow. (like you said Robert, could have been from his other copy) which is totally mute point because I was wrong anyhow. Robert Jordan enlightened us with:

No hard feelings Plow. I'm an honest seller and won't mislead anyone just to sell an item. I know you just forgot that Papy later packaged this title in the smaller CD size retail boxes.

Excellent example of the "supply and demand" rule. This is probably the only thing I have ever sold for more than I paid for it. I usually take a 60-80% loss (from original investment) when I put something up for sale.

Actually I have 3 copies myself (well I mean 3 cd codes) and funny you mention it, my 1st box was the big one, inside it was the smaller one, inside that was the stuff. go figure? that disc got broken in half by a pissed off woman... I sent it in with the 10 bucks (hey, they said just send the CD), they send me new box and all (with good CD key to boot). Well But that aint all, before that one came back, I had to have a disc you know for leagues, and I was pissed about the breakage so I bought another at walmart nearby like the next day. so I have 3 (2 physically) copies more or less. gordo enlightened us with:
