Felix, I don't doubt that it's a great deal. But you work with the guy - or have claimed to have these great ties witrh him - why couldn't you have worked something out in the store and not "win" one on ebay? Why would you be on here touting these great ebay deals?
My best friend and cohort in cards (SwamiLee) has been running ebay sales for 15-20 years now. I don't even know. I have never touted how great his deals are and how I've gotten so much from him or anything. It never seemed right to me to advertise for my best friend because it would be strange to do so.
Don't question why you ordered the TCDB t-shirt - it's for a great cause. The site is awesome, and Admin is wonderful and responsive. Question why you feel the need to advertise these lots for your friend as a "customer". Look at it from our shoes - then get back to us.
