It cost him a grand total of $10.76 plus shipping.
After receiving all the inquiries from the auction, mostly from you folks, I thought to myself how this would play out. I wasn’t disappointed.
It’s not about the money, and I wasn’t going to rip anyone off. If anyone noticed, originally it wasn’t a “private” auction. I adjusted it so that no one would interfere. It was interesting to see how many of you squirm and stew on this forum.

I dont remember doing any 'bitchin' alls i remember doing is trying to prevent someone from getting screwed by someone who has clearly and deliberately misrepresented an item to make a quick buck.
As for the undergarments.....im not wearing any!
So, "George" decided that he didnt want to pay near 100 for the manual?.....oh, he wanted to pay 10.76 after hearing all the TRUE details?..........DOESNT SOUND TO ME LIKE OL GEORGE THOUGHT IT WAS A REPRINT THAT HE WAS BIDDING ON IN THE FIRST PLACE NOW DOES IT?........
Hell, but as your auction reads, this was the seller opportunity to get a "good deal"..........really?
All that aside, i guess i am mainly dissappointed because the information that was volunteered in both of these threads was ultimately used against an unassuming enthusiast. I mean "
It also has that musty smell from age (not horrible)".....LOOKS LIKE SOMEONE READ MY POST ON THE PREVIOUS THREAD.
As for squirming and stewing, i am proud to say that shelbyforums is still the forum were such behavior is not accepted. But, if your idea of squirming and stewing is being honest and responsible, then i am glad that my squirming saved some unknowing guy 86.25.
And to support Josh's point, he is right in that NOTHING that a seller knows about an item should EVER be left out of a description.
Sorry i had to type this.
