[Groop] DVD of Groo collection on eBay

[Emmett, Chris C]

Hey Tone

The problem is that person A wants book 1 and person B wants book 2.
They are forced into an artificial bidding war for different items. That
isn't a fair thing to do.
In the alternative, they can see what everyone is bidding for and decide
what they want to make an attempt at. I'm sure someone with more legal
knowledge than me can explain this properly but it is really annoying as
a buyer.

TBH I think it backfires because if person A has bid then person B will
wait til the auction ends and then bid when it is re-listed. The seller
will get less than if they had sold all the books as one lot (generally,
of course, some people will not take the gamist approach). Likely as not
the buyer will take the book he wants and then sell the rest so the
other person gets a chance to get the book they wanted too.

P.S. I just thought: if everyone replies to your post and copies the
whole post, we could really make Rick Loomis go loopy :-)

	I get busy for just a couple of days to deal with taxes (and I
must say OUCH! due to the amount I owed) along with some early packing
for the likely move to P.A., and I get back to 25 e-mails. I know I said

getting spam. I just wish I had realized this LONG ago. :)
	By the way, Azamin, NICE point of remembering how Groo the
Hydra-like creature! I had forgotten that completely even though I
brought that costume idea up. Duh!
