Magic or telepathy, I'd wager...

He was selling a TRC supposedly from a 330 or 360. It may have been a fake, or perhaps RIC had it pulled.
It was up over $100 U.S. last time I saw it.

He apparently joined under false pretenses, as the ID history for monkee_face etc., does not refer back to emperor26.

Based on a read of his "About Me" page, it looks like he has joined a different cult this week Kevin. Image

Read that and then look at the prices of his auctions. Hypocrite.

He was tossed and now he's back.

BTW, I was visiting Bjorn's pages, looking at the gorgeous collections, when whose name jumped out at me?

Why it's the Emperor of Enmity, Doug Roehr!

I just happened to be checking (non-Chinese) ebay Rick auctions about 5 mins before it ended.
monkey_butt had been outbid until just over 3 mins were left. I was rooting for the other bidder, but the vile one won out.
