Many Many VHS tapes that came from John Iacovelli. Some of them may (?) contain "Producer's Cuts" of a few episodes.

This would be an ideal purchase for someone who might be a bit on the ins*ne side and who has the Super Power of being able to watch every B5 episode in existence and spot differences between what was aired vs the scripts.

That's a fun one! And a less...shall we say, 'inflated' price than usual. I see one labeled 'Producer's Cut' and that's not enough to make me snag them. Now, if a few of them had indicated that they were Dailies tapes, that would be a sold batch! Dailies tapes are the ones that have all the different footage filmed on a day with all the different shots (establishing, close-up, over-the-shoulder, etc) and you come to appreciate the actors having to keep repeating the same thing over and over and over but still keep it believable.

Some "Crusade" books

Were these listings from anyone here? I made the purchase Monday and they have yet to ship so I am getting a bit nervous since the Seller has a (0)% Feedback Rating. Thankfully there were only two listings. If there had been many then I would hit the panic button. Two seems like more of a legitimate posting from someone who is taking too long to ship.

Anyone remember the big Babylon 5 / Trek scam from I am going to say 2004 (I'm sure I am WAY off on the year. I just remember it was the Pre-PayPal days when I was sending Money Orders through the mail to pay auctions I won.) There were hundreds of listings from a Seller, I think it was mostly Babylon 5 and Trek stuff - in particular trading cards. I bought a Michael O'Hare Autograph card for around $20. After I sent my payment I almost immediately discovered the problem. I sent a money order to Nevada, but the Seller's ID said they were in Michigan. Then I decided to check the Sellers other listings. This person had (25) Feedback and I don't think any of it was for Selling, but all of the sudden over a three day period they listed about 500 items for sale - all scheduled listings that started at the same time and ended at that exact time one week later. At that time I was doing a lot of buying and selling of B5 trading cards, so I started getting messages from people I had sold cards to or bought cards from asking me if I knew anything about it or if I had received my item. Sure enough no card arrived. I was lucky. They got me for about $20. People I was talking to at the time had lost hundreds of dollars. Now you know why eBay has Buyer protection.

-0-?? I see a 75 rating. Or do you mean nothing recent? Have they marked it shipped? I've had several packages reach me lately that never even show any tracking by USPS.

Yes I was referring to the 0% feedback rating because they have no feedback over the past year. I should not have typed it "(0)%)". The Seller contacted me last night and said it shipped, but provided no tracking number and said it should be here in the next few weeks. Not a boost to my confidence in this transaction. I asked for a tracking number and they have not replied.

Feedback looks solid for the seller and you are protected to the hilt with eBay as they almost always side with the buyer in disputes. I'd relax and wait for your books.

For anybody seriously interested in the makings of B5, you might want to take a look at the production notebooks that Our own (well, we share him with his wife, of course) Jason Davis has listed. These were from the office of Douglas Netter, Co-Executive producer of the show. The list of goodies in each is incredible!

(Hey don't try to take away my scam.......... I mean plea.)

Now listen everyone. If you buy all of those for me you'll be helping me as well as Jason and is now the season of giving.

(Thank you for that wonderful setup Jan.) ???????????

Even more items for the Holiday List:
Seller https://www.ebay.com/usr/jefroje-9vgo8o/ has added the three Amazing Stories JMS story mags plus a Mess o CDs.


Unfortunately my wallet has gotten wise and is now wearing a helmet so I can't sneak up and whack it with a mallet to snag a credit card while it is unconscious. The time to Break Into Tears will probably be when the CC bill arrives.
