These bad experiences emphasise the need for forums like this, made up of a group of people who will look after each other.
I was thinking about the Drop a Card http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140529879106&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT on ebay which is being sold by the seller mentioned by CaveofTreasures. Kind of glad I didnt bid because I was relying solely on the de******ion provided.
Definitely all of us need to follow the old rule "Buyer Beware" but this should hopefully only be for dealing with those outside this forum- you would hope that anything sold by our members to other members would be on the level. I have been fortunate - the last pins I either bought or swapped were with  members and both were 100% great.

Interesting!!!... i also enquired about the Drop a card and got VERY few pictures... 2 in fact.
Didnt realise it was a dealer.. was led to believe it was private.

Anyway - didnt matter, one person bid 3 times to get it and seller was a bit unfriendly in the emails... didnt bother in the end
