Hmmm, were you just watching your new "V" DVD too? I love the words over the symbol that is ebay.

Well Tom......I let me 2 year old nephew run around with mine on my last trip home.........he only poked one eye out and scratched the door frame twice.

I think its safe to lower the legal limit of ownership to 2 now.

On a seperate note I just realised I've not asked if I can link your site from the Charter. WTH???? Hw did I miss that?
May I?
I won't charge any commission fees etc, atleast not for the first 100 years :)

Man, I love some of the questions. :)

Say, on an unrelated note, do you have any of the BTTF Time Machine "Blueprints" left that you drew?

Ha!! I had fun with the wording too but didn't want to get too carried away with it. :lol: They must be running some sort of script that catches urls placed in the listing descriptions. I've lost count of the number of times my auctions were pulled for reasons that maintained no consistency with human intelligence.

Sure thing, Tony. I will have that build tutorial updated to the site this weekend.

I like the Q & A section as well, Rook. It sort of gives the listing a little more depth, eh?

Yes. I may have another one of those BTTF technical illustrations remaining. Haven't listed one of those since it got vero'd by Warner Brothers of all companies. (you remember don't you? :D )

For anyone else that hasn't seen those, here is one of the illuminated sets that I had built some time ago...

Each piece is based on a compilation of my own original artwork. The Bladerunner Spinner technical was a team effort between myself and another prop enthusiast. From time to time, the BTTF technical continues to pop up as a copy that is not very difficult to spot.

It is only a matter of time, Noeland. I am looking foward to seeing that film. :)

Rook, package received, bud. I am sizing things up right now. Will be sending you an email very soon.

A little update with the topic at hand:

My wife got that very same letter.
Funny thing is, she is not even an eBay member.

Yah. Funny thing too. The member that sent me this message signed up yesterday.
