Lol, you mean it was always marked as shipped or did they just recently mark it?

Well they JUST marked it, it even has a tracking number they said. and apparently... It was sent out the day after I purchased it?

So the 5th of October, the tracking number doesn't tell me where it is, just that it's number has been accepted?

*huuuggs*

It's been paid and shipped apparently! The day after I paid haha, quick! But the book still isn't here. MAN. I hope it gets here in one peice xD

You'll never get more than that. All it shows is that it was accepted. To tell you the truth, sometimes it doesn't even show that.

D8! Guess I'll stalk my mailbox, I honestly thought such a good book would get more bids than that.

Is it possible to say something has been posted when it hasn't? I hope they're not feeling cheapened out on >_>;

Yeah. They can mark an item as shipped and just choose not to enter a tracking code.  Or they can make one up if they are putting it in by hand. Sometimes though, they print shipping out and it lists it as shipped, but then they don't take it to the post office for a couple days.. So even though it's marked as shipped, that doesn't really mean it's at the post office.

[bagheera86]

I RECEIVED IT!

It's a tad smelly of tobacco, but i got it! I was reading it at my volunteer place, and since i was by myself I have spooked myself quite well. urgh!

[ponylady]

  Yay!!!

[RockinPrettyBeats]

See, everything was fine. They probably made a mistake in the shipping cost but stuck to their word and shipped it anyways. Or maybe they never noticed. In any case, good for you.

Glad that all was resolved!

Thanks and thanks for all your help I appreciate it! *hugggs*

nOPE THEY didn't, it was suppose to be! They probably thought they'd get a higher bid for the book since they have a couple others from the same series as well but at a buy it now price.

 and they probably picked it up for cheapo themselves seeing the condition it was in. I'm trying to air it out by leave it outside, the cover is a clothlike thing and the image on it is just a sticker haha, it feels gross to touch. like it feels dirty and the pages have marks like it got wet here and there. it's still readable though... but getting that smell out and cleaning the cover is going to be a difficult task.

I forget sometimes that some people still start off auctions super low to try and get attention for them! I personally rarely do that but you're right in thinking that's probably what happened here.

Hopefully you can save the book?
