[webstar1000]

This is mine.

[Patrick]

Love the artwork. The auction is already over $600. Impressive!

[ESW]

Wow! I'm glad you like the painting :-) Glad to help the Foundation.
Thanks

[Aronstg]

I think like is an understatement. I think a lot of us have a strong love/lust for that painting!

[ESW]

Hi! Looked in on the auction today and the link is down--"Item Removed or Unavailable?" Yikes! What happened?

[peripheral]

Here we go. Let the games begin...:excited:

[Aronstg]

Ack!! Saw this also. I know last time I checked the painting was at $710. I hope this doesn't have anything to do with the warnings that RF was getting from Ebay.

[T-Dogz_AK47]

So eBay will pull a charity auction, but they continue to ignore all the fake SK crap that gets reported to them?.... I like how that works, NOT!!! :mad:

eBay sucks. thumbsdownsmall

Really? What is eBay's issue with this?? That's shit...

[Bunyip]

I don't get it? I didn't think any of this would be a problem. As long as you pay the fees to those greedy pricks I wouldn't have thought they would care.

[T-Dogz_AK47]

eBay are getting their period because TheDarkTower.org is mentioned in the auction, which they see as advertising. Something to do with Hyperlinks, or some shit. It's fucking pathetic! :doh:

It seems eBay's priority when cancelling auctions is this, rather than whether the item for sale is actually genuine.... :rolleyes:

Twats! :onfire:

Ohhhhh FFS... what fukindicknoses...

[webstar1000]

That is fucking wrong. TOTALLY. I did some design work for RF yesterday to fix up the link so you can put it into the ad. I wonder if when he changed that and put the new card in it triggered something? RF will have to chime in... BUT THAT IS WRONG!

Kris, I hope I am wrong. I wasn't aware that you had helped RF yesterday, is all.

But whatever reason is given, eBay are TOTALLY WRONG for cancelling the auction in the first place! Seriously, what breed of asshole pulls a charity auction???? :o

What really grits my shit though, is the fact that eBay blatantly ignores the forgery and counterfeit reports they receive regarding the crap posted in the "eBay bullshit items thread". :wtf:

100% agree brother

[Randall Flagg]

Ebay pulled the auction because:

"Please understand, there's a website address "TheDarkTower.?g" referred in the listing which is a shopping site. Please understand that links intended to divert members to other e-commerce aggregators or auction style websites are not allowed. We have this policy in place as this could reduce the overall traffic on eBay and hurt the marketplace. Also, we can't ensure the safety and legitimacy of members' experiences on other sites. We'd appreciate if you could edit your listing to remove while relisting the item."

I have to wait a day before relisting them.
It will be easiest of I just leave our site out of the text in the ad and rely on the image in the picture part of the ad to let buyers know about the site.
Very frustrating, but don't fear, I'll have them back up for auction as soon as I can.

[Mr. Rabbit Trick]

Just put the Banner picture at the top of this site on all your pages. Other bookstores do it all the tiime.

[Brian861]

I really like this part here, but it should read "on our own site" :).


Also, we can't ensure the safety and legitimacy of members' experiences on other sites.

[herbertwest]

"to other e-commerce aggregators or auction style websites"
Well, technically you could argue that this website is none of those. The only auctions here are done VIA EBAY.

You may be under their scrutiny though...

[Randall Flagg]

Relisted for a 10 day auction.

[T-Dogz_AK47]

I'm back in with another bid. :thumbsup:

[Brian861]

Sweet! Looking forward to the others coming back online.

[Bunyip]

I threw a couple of hundred at it, which was never going to feed the bulldog, hope it goes bigtime Hollywood Style.

[burial]

Got it... for now;)

[Merlin1958]

:thumbsup::thumbsup:

[jsmcmullen92]

Got it... for now;)

Bring it on :evil:

[Merlin1958]

Well, this seems to be holding a price below $700 this go round.

[Randall Flagg]

Well, this seems to be holding a price below $700 this go round.
Then bid (honestly being willing to pay) $800.

[Brian861]

Still over 3 and a half days out. I bet most of your watchers are going for the last second bid to try and win it. I was thinking of throwing up a bid just to test the max bid waters but I've afraid I'd end up winning the damn thing lol.

[Jimimck]

Fantastic piece!!!

[jsmcmullen92]

Really i'm still holding on to this one... I'm not even trying that hard. This is worth at least $100 over what I have my max set at but I am not going to complain if I win at such a great price!

[Brian861]

Kinda surprised as well. Wasn't this piece in the $750 range the first time it was up? You might get a helluva deal unless folks are lurking til the very end. Good luck!

[Aronstg]

This sold for a nice price. It sold for it's previous high bid the first time around. Congrats to whoever won this!

[dnemec]

Hope someone here got it. Unfortunately, it was out of my price range, but it is an awesome painting!

[jsmcmullen92]

I held it till the last 5 seconds. Congratulations to whoever won it.

[ESW]

Many thanks for all the bids and the purchase for the Foundation. :-) I'm surprised and delighted to see this go as well as it did. :coo3l:

[Beverly Marsh]

Did someone on here end up with this? It's an amazing piece!

Does anyone know if Erin still does Remarques? I did send a PM but maybe she isn't doing them anymore. Hoping to get one in my IT GE
