Hi,
I recently bought an item (link provided below) and have received some of what is listed.
I would appreciate other opinions on what they think the auction contains. I would be easier just to list the approx. date range of the items you think are included.

Many thanks to any that reply

Am I missing something?
The auction should include everything shown on the images,
nothing left off.

I just bid for an equatorial guinea catalogue
I made an offer of 4 euros.
The vendor accepted offers "plus expenses"
He accepted the offer and added $24 in shipping.
I refused.

Anthony,

To my eye you bought two volumes of France Lighthouse album. Second volume has 1964 to 1969, highly complete, mostly MNH. First volume has a scattering of older issues, mostly used.

So, what was in the box when you opened it?

Thanks Rod, Larry.
You are not missing anything. I didn't receive all the items (yet?), only ones dated from approx. 1964.
Awaiting a response from the seller but not holding my breath.

I see two volumes as well.

A lot of duplicate images.
Ah,, I see the catch. He is only selling 1 album but showed pictures for two albums. I think you may have gotten suckered.

None of his sales for albums are RARE or do they contain RARE stamps. This guy is a big blow hard.
Selling modern issues albums.

I would return the item if he does not respond in a timely fashion to ensure you get your money back.

I wouldn't say suckered as the description states 'you will be getting exactly what you see'
In this instance I don't think I'll be left out of pocket if I don't receive the second item but I was looking forward to organising my early France collection which is currently in a stockbook.

Anthony, you have a right to all items shown.

This is a very good Lighthouse Leuchtturm Album W/France Stamps Rare item.
I started bid @ a very low price . I took very detailed pictures of the item which will give you a good description of the item. None of the pictures are repeated so you will be getting exactly what you see. BID & BUY WITH CONFIDENCE.
This is one of my Grandpa's Collection.

I sure hope you get everything, keep us posted.

Anthony if you are less than satisfied you must let him know in no uncertain terms...most dealers quickly refund (at least in my wife and my experiences) rather than face potential problems with ebay..but the decision is yours ...

I have contacted the seller and hope to resolve the situation amicably but will escalate this with ebay if either I get no response which is unlikely as I contacted them regarding tracking info one day before it arrived and they responded quickly in this instance or we are not able to agree on a resolution.

I would contact the resolution center deny payment until other album is sent!

he stated "None of the pictures are repeated so you will be getting exactly what you see. BID & BUY WITH CONFIDENCE. "

fight this and send it back COD, if you get ALL your money back!
