Post by: NathanCanadas on February 14, 2012, 04:27:38 PM: Bidding!

EDIT: Got it for 22$ with shipping. Do you think it was worth it?
Title: Re: 8 minutes to get your super cheap V-slims!
Post by: xela on February 14, 2012, 04:36:35 PM: Considering I sell opened v-slims for $10 and would sell my sealed decks for no less than $30? Yes, it's worth it. Open one of them, at least, and enjoy the greatest handling ever. It gets better the longer you use them.

All set for what, the apocalypse? Kidding aside, on ebay, there are many different V Slims on sale, unopened, in cellophane, 15$ for a set with free shipping. What a deal!

Post by: Curt on February 14, 2012, 10:50:51 PM: I just took a bit of a gamble on this auction: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/370584113024?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649

I already own a mint set of V.Slims but figured for the price I might as well try my luck and hope these are in good condition. For $9.50 and the sellers rating, I think it's worth the risk.

Stop grousing and buy some already. EBay wants to help you, if you'll let him... I'm near certain these aren't the only deals out there.

No offense but it kind of annoys me you say this kind of stuff very often, K. I used to before but decided to stop. And I'm glad I did. If you live in the US, this deal may be worth it for you, even more than mine:

Wow! Did the seller know how much he was loosing?

Post by: Lushbob on February 15, 2012, 08:21:41 PM: I love Virginia Slims. I'll be getting a deck from Alex soon, and I already have an opened deck of each colour. I'm hoping to get some sealed ones soon.
It's great, if you just check eBay every now and then, new auctions for Virginia Slims pop up all over the place.

Shipping costs are the only problems I have with getting deck, not much of the prices, I understand that sometimes it's a pain to hear me whine about the costs of shipping here and that a really nice deal with free shipping isn't really free for me as the costs for shipping may roughly be the costs I'm buying the deck for. I apologize for causing such an annoyance to you guys out there.

Sadly at the last minute the deal fell apart. He must have realized just how much how he was losing and decided to sell them at V-Slims regular price instead of my epic deal.
