Does it have the cool BestBuy alternate cover? ;)

It was just one of those fleeting questions that popped into my head and left shortly after I typed the PM. Maybe somebody else will be interested.
 
* International CAGs should have at least 10 iTrader and will be asked to pay actual shipping and possibly a very small packing fee for materials.

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but do Canadians count as international CAGs?

yes... unless the seller is in Canada, which I don't think any of us are.

[quote name='game_fanatic']So since I have an iTrader score of 6, and am from Canada, all my bids are stricken from the auction?[/QUOTE]

It seems that way according to the rules...UNLESS you can rally 4 more positive feedbacks before the end of the auction by Sept 14th. You seem like an honest bidder, so maybe you can work something out with dv8mad. Bid retractions sux. Any case, I suggest dv8mad should clarify "non-US CAG members" are considered international CAGs since I believe all the lowball sellers will ship from the United States (with exception of dv8mad).
 
Untold Legends: Brotherhood of the Blade...what does it mean UMD clip holder missing? Does it mean it's complete but the little clip in the case is broken?

Yeah hopefully something can be worked out; I'll wait for dv8mad's confirmation on the situation and we'll go from there. I do have several positive transactions with Goomba if that has any bearing on the situation.

And push come to shove you could just go the Goomba route with anything you may win. It may end up costing more, but it's certainly an option.

Do'h! I guess I'm in the same boat... There's only only like 2-3 Canadians who'd meet the 10 requirement, as our trading board is REALLY slow.

That is true. It would probably end up costing me just the extra shipping and maybe a service fee from goombs if it wasn't his item; I'm starting to worry about that GoW2: Last Stand book I bid on, since it's weight for shipping may kill the deal. Oh well, I imagine a bid will go higher than mine between now and auctions' end.

Yeah the CAG Canada trading board is pretty slow ragnar, and I usually don't buy a lot of games off of here, mostly stuff from goomba, which unfortunately doesn't add to my iTrader score. C'est la vie!
 
Canadians DO count as international bidders, however (although not stated in the original post) they are not required to have 10 iTrader.

If you live in Zimbabwe and you want to pay via bank transfer with the money that your father - the ex king of your African nation - left you before he suddenly passed away, then please have at least 10 iTrader.

I also believe that we do not have anyone participating from Canada, although two were asked if they wanted to take part. Hell, I'm in Japan so Canada and the US are the same for me. Zimbabwe... Not so much. ;)

I'm getting ready for work at the moment and can't get to an update, but I thought I should stop by and clear this up.

BTW, tlp, I can't find a pic anywhere of the BBY alternative coverart for Xenosaga III, but everything I find looks like this one, so it must be normal. (This is the one I owe you, not the one for auction. I don't know about that one.)

Thanks for the confirmation ;) Oh and the BestBuy Xenosaga 3 is noticeably different, and quite rare (and never released in Canada dammit). Here see:

Would there be anyway for us to know what is sold by each seller? Maybe not names (maybe like a "Seller A", "Seller B" thing), but just so we know whether items we are bidding on are coming from the same seller or multiple ones. I understand it might be a lot of trouble, though, so no biggie.

OK, just finished updating, and now some more thread updates.

#1 hunter12360 - I was told that they do NOT include the OXM issues, just the disks and cases.

#2 DAMN - I hit the enter button... let me edit this...

#3 We are still pending an answer in the thread, ironically for my item(s), but I can't answer it. Anyone that has picked up a shirt from me in the past, please post how similar they are to North American sizing.

#4 mbradley1992 - It was a conscious decision to keep it fair for everyone participating in the sale. I thought that the person with the lowest feedback, may be looked at as the least reliable. We all know that tlp is the least reliable of us and I didn't want there to be confusion. ;)
Actually, once the sale has run it's course, everything will be broken down into individual sellers. But, as stated on the front page, don't worry, we have all agreed to refund shipping if someone is grossly overcharged due to buying multiple items from one of us.

#5 Today is the third day in a row in which I have had to delete tidbits of information from the OP due to the single post character limit. :rofl:

[/QUOTE]

I picked up a Japanese L, and I usually wear NA L. Its probably somewhere in between a M and L. I'm tall, but also with a slim frame. Usually, NA L has good length, but some width room, could stand to lose 3~4 inches for a more form fitting look. Japanese L has a smaller width (Good for me), but its a few inches shorter too.

On another note, Japanese shirts are also very soft XD I do like the material they use for them compared to NA tees.
 
I hate to do this dv8, but I am going to have to retract two of my bids, mainly due to the high shipping costs it would be to have them shipped to Canada. The two items are:

20. Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (GOTY Edition)-$11
45/46/47. Gears of War 2: Last Stand Edition-$4

The previous winning bid for the Elder Scrolls IV: GOTY Edition guide was at $10, by lazyotaku, and the previous winning bid for the Gears of War 2: Last Stand Edition guide was at $3, by Liberty1. I hate to retract bids considering this is my first time participating in a lowball, but without my dedication to these items I can spend additional money on more sought-after items that I wouldn't mind paying the shipping on. Thanks to dv8 and all the participating CAGs for understanding.

LOWBALL INFO UNDER THE SPOILER

*Some new requirements - Please Read!*
What do I need to do?
These things are REQUIRED for it to be a dv8mad lowball.
#1 - Have at least 15 positive feedback on CAG.
#2 - Have 10 items or more in your sale.
#3 - Have no minimum starting prices. ( I mean, of course $1 is fine, we have to start somewhere, but $10 is crap.)
#4 - Don't remove items and do not end items earlier than stated.
#5 - Post a clear ending date. (time is optional) NOT a rolling end time - Make it easy for people!
#6 - dv8mad lowball sales are CAG exclusive. If you want to advertise your sale on a different site, that's fine, but no GTZ, NA, "friends" or other bidders. If they want to bid, they can join CAG.
#7 - All bids must appear in the CAG thread. No emails, PMs or other site bids.

These things are RECOMMENDED for your sale but not required at all for me to link you.
#1 - Have clear shipping amounts posted. Low shipping encourages multiple item bids and, in the end, gets you more bids and better results! No one likes to be gouged.
#2 - If everything on your page is not included in the auction be EXTREMELY CLEAR about what is not included, big lines and text should do the trick.
#3 - I have encountered some CAGs with a history of non-payment for lowball sales or other negative situations. Personally, I recommend against accepting bids from them. They are listed near the bottom of the page.
#4 - Offer some type of "protection" for CAGs at a certain feedback level, for example, "will ship first to CAGs with over 100 positives at 100%." or "will accept 50% payment before shipping for CAGs with at least 75 positive feedback at 100%."

dv8mad lowball sale resource;
RULES:
1) Simply type in your max bid for the item(s) in this thread. No PMs. No Emails. Just reply in the forum reply section. This is to keep bids public and to keep my PM box from overflowing as it always does. Obviously post edits and spoilers hiding bids are not acceptable.
2) I will update the first page to reflect your bids as often as possible. Feel free to check the latest bids on the last page(s) if you are unsure of the latest update.
3) There is no minimum for any item. You can win them for as little as you bid. So if you bid $1.00 and win it, it's yours for a $1.00 (plus shipping). If someone bids $5 and you outbid them for $10, you may win the item for your $10 bid and pay your bid plus shipping at the end of the sale.
4) The smallest bid increment is $.50, no $.10 or $.01 bids!
4) Please note that you will be expected to pay the amount you bid plus appropriate shipping if you have the highest offer at the end. Negative feedback may be left for those who choose not to follow through with payment.
5) If you place a bid, you are committing to that item. DO NOT place a bid if you do not intend to keep that bid active. Bid retractions are not my idea of a good time. I understand that sometimes unavoidable circumstances arise. If you are fearful that this may happen, please wait to bid on the last day so you know that nothing unexpected occurred!
6) All bids are welcome (excluding bids from CAGs on my Negative Experience List).
7) CAGs with over ~~ positive itrader at 100% are eligible for shipment before full payment if requested. Please ask if you do not feel safe bidding.

Ending the Auction:
This Auction will NOT have a rolling end. It will have a solid end time. I will not be posting the exact ending time, but I will tell you it will end sometime late (US time) on ?-?-09 or possibly even very early (US time) on ?-?-09. Once I post saying AUCTION OVER - NO MORE BIDS ACCEPTED, that is it and nothing further will count.
I do not like sniping. I also do not like sorting through 75 last minute bids to find out the winners and make an extra $10. So, if you plan to win, your best option is to make a decent bid early!

Shipping/Payment:
If you win one item, shipping is $~. *Each additional item will be $~.
* If you end up with a bunch of light things, I will refund some of the shipping to you afterward if it's more than a few bucks difference.
The following form of payment is accepted.
~ Paypal
The following forms of payment are possible, although you may have to jump through a couple hoops and go through another CAG in the end making the process just a bit longer. Easiest is just to count on Paypal being accepted.
~ Amazon Payments
~ Money Order
