So what this thread was mainly about was I bought Diablo 1 from a seller on eBay, they were very very strange.

That was a humorous read, palmer. Thanks for sharing!

It does seem kind of bizarre. I tend to be someone who has faith in the human race, so I'm hoping that maybe they are just being overly cautious after being burned once before.

Though I'm sure you are already doing so, be sure to document all of these interactions, just in case.

It is kinda funny when you read it all, but wow why does it have to be me!? Lol :P
No, I will give it a while, I just hope all comes to me in great shape and in a timely manner and once this transaction is done I will refrain from buying from him again.

You actually might have an easier time buying from him a second time, since he'll likely trust you if all goes well this time.

I actually didn't think of that, may be true! But at the same time, his other stuff seems really overpriced.

No dear buyer, it is the greatest deal on earth.

That is some funny shit right there.  I'm glad I'm not you, but it sounds like you might just get this thing as you wanted.  HAHAHA.

This is my favorite part:

Dear palmer6strings,

dear friend,

please just give me your word as god as your witness that if i send you my game that you will not give me and my family trouble over the transaction in any way shape or form please,

thank you sincerely dear buyer.

He addresses you twice with "dear" using both your named and calling you "friend" and then wants you to give him your word "as god is your witness".  This is just so hilarious.

Wow... ???

It looks like someone needs to lay off the Draino. When you do leave feedback, make sure you give them 1 star for the creepy communication. I like sellers that communicate with me, but sheesh!

That's why I prefer no communication. The only thing that I want a seller to message me with is a tracking number the day after I pay for my item.
