So you can probably see my confusion. Totally understand if you're selling for someone else though - thanks for the explanation.

Also, I wasn't try to be snarky with the "food on the table" bit, I literally meant it -- I DO understand that some people can use this forum to make money to provide for their every day needs. Got no problem with it. And if you want to use eBay to sell to members on here, that's fine too. People are free to do what they want and set whatever prices they want.

I never got a response from you regarding the TR questions or anything else, just the bag, so that added to me asking the question above - but I thought I did respond regarding the bag. Could've sworn I asked you for price and where to send payment to after giving my address, but never got a response. Maybe the PM didn't go through because of a full inbox? (Get that error alot on my part but don't always notice it because it says it AFTER I click send) Box is always full lately.

Anyway, guess you answered my questions, and I'll send (or re-send) you a PM about the bag when I can.

Well I am a bit confused by your response. You say to me "no need for rudeness" yet your initial posting that I responded to was exactly that. So my response defending myself was "rude" in your eyes, but your initial comments were not rude? How can that be?

Also, can you show me where I said I had gotten "several" of the Tomb Raider prints? I checked all of the messages in my sent box and found no such message where I said that. Nor did I ever make a promise to you or anyone that I would get something. If I sat back and did that my entire time at PAX would be running around getting stuff for people and not being able to enjoy the convention or the time with my nephews and friends. For you since you were the first person to ask me, I did my best. I was able to get you a Sword Coast Legends bag and code card, but then YOU said you were waiting for the console version and that the code would not work for it so I held back one of the bags for you. I also said they had given out some sort of pin but I personally was not able to get one for myself, they ran out each day. Unfortunately that is all they had for that particular game. I never heard back from YOU to get back to me with regards to the shipping costs to mail the bag to you, I wasn't planning on charging you for the bag, as I had said I would try my best to get you something and I did just that, all I expected was you to cover the shipping. But again, YOU never responded to the last message I sent you back around the third week of September.

You know all of this could have been avoided had you just private messaged me directly but you chose to post on a public thread and at the same time your initial post made me out to be the bad guy here, and all I did was post in response defending myself. You and everyone else would do the same, but had you simply messaged me directly, all of this could be avoided. In the future you can't mock someone and then when they defend themselves, come back and have the audacity to tell them they are being rude, that's like the pot calling the kettle black.

For the record, I didn't get several Tomb Raider prints, they were very strict about them making people wait and they had only a set amount per day, I was told 100, but by the time the crowds got in, it seemed everyone was going to the TR booth to line up either to play or to get the print. There were two different prints, one for Friday/Sunday, the other for Saturday/Monday. The game doesn't interest me, nor does waiting an hour or longer. A few of my friends and nephews waited and got one. One friend had theirs personalized and kept, which left me with four to sell, one which did recently and three left to sell (two of one style, one of the other style) and one of those being signed by the lead writer. Yes I sell for over half a dozen friends and nephews, should you be interested in the signed one, feel free to message me directly, or you can wait until it gets posted on eBay as I put things up in waves mainly due to time.

So I hope you understand why I posted in response and if it had a defensive stance to it. It's all good though in my mind now....
