Monisum!!! You wrecked my weekend... ;)
It's not easy to be happy about someone else's joy when their fortune is my loss. But i'll try my best to be a gentleman.
Congratulations on winning that sterling silver Buffalo Man necklace! 
I had hoped to score it myself. I placed a bid with 170 Swiss Francs to mark my territory so to speak. My plan was to get home and watch the auction towards the end and snipe it. But I got stuck down town and missed out. Murphy's law I guess. 
It sure was a beautiful piece of jewelry. I hope you enjoy it, in fact I know you will. Next time I won't be so easy to beat though. Watch out!  |

Hey, sorry to wreck your day. Did not know, that it was another jamirotalker who was after it 
Damn, that you all have different nicks on ebay, and I was not the only one going after that necklace. Someone else overbid first
Anyway, if it helps you...I wrecked my bank account...

It's no biggie, I really liked that necklace though. My wife was going to pay for it and give it to me for my 35th birthday. That was the plan anyway. But since we didn't get it she is thinking about commissioning a jeweler to make a custom buffalo man necklace for my b-day. That's a good idea cause she can have the jeweler engrave some text on the back and perhaps a heart on the front. We'll see. If it happens I'll post pics here. It's still a little more than a month left until my b-day so time will tell if the project will be done in time or if it will be a post b-day gift.
Now go enjoy that wonderful collectible and wear it with pride. |

By the way, the necklace seller is a very good and recommendable ebay seller!. Bought a lot of things before from him, including the canned heat video fleece jacket. Very good communication with him.
Only bad thing for me is, that German customs has always problems with shippings from Switzerland to Germany.
So this time again, the necklace lies at the customs office and I have to pay addional custom fees and taxes for it, to get it out 
Had the same problem with the canned heat jacket, and the additional costs had been more than 40 Euro  That's why I have to think twice, when I buy from Switzerland.
I only bet for it on ebay, cause it was told on japanese site, that it was "sold out". But now it is available again
I just received the Lion heart bracelett from the japanese site through a japanese seller I know from ebay. Wasn't cheap either to get it right from Japan, cause I could not order directly from the fan site.
Just a last remark: The Japanese Lion heart articles seem to be made especially for the "small" Japanese people Although I am quite thin, the bracelett fits very narrow around my wrist, and you need three hands to close it 
So I am curious how the necklace will be. May be I get strangulated
I will know tomorrow, when that damn customs office is open.

Monisum I know what you mean it is the same problem in the UK I bought a few yrs ago a golden LP from Jamiroquai. I had to fight with the cusoms in Switzerland, I had to send them the whole transaction that I made on ebay, and they wanted my email correspondence. |
