I'm trying to stay neutral in this, but the sequence of events seemed pretty clear to me from the start. In no particular order:
Slim sells Illium to KoC for money on eBay.
KoC sends Slim an Aegis 7 and the Garrus litho as described in an above post.
What is the shrinkage status on the mass effect shirts?

Erik,
Here I go again grasping at straws -
Here's the original post where Charles says he received the #2 Aegis litho -
Got my Aegis litho too today. The packaging was roughed up, but the litho was miraculously fine. Got #2/500!
Maybe it was just me, but the litho looked more cheapy than the ME ones, perhaps it was just the lighting though.
http://social.biowar...ndex/2771796/12
Several pages later in the same thread, Slim Charles wrote . . . .
I have a Citadel in good shape that I would be willing to swap for an Omega, but how do these swaps generally go down? Not that I don't trust people, but I backed off a Jack for Afterlife swap a couple weeks ago because I didn't feel safe. What have the rest of you found is the best strategy?
http://social.biowar...ndex/2771796/19
If he had already swapped his Illium for a Garrus and Aegis plus cash from KingofallCosmos then I would think he would have had some idea how swaps were accomplished. He would have already done it.
Again, several pages later in the same thread, Slim Charles wrote . . .
I got #2/500 on my Aegis 7 litho. I ordered all 3 pf the other Dead Space lithos within 5 minutes of them being posted, and always got #100+, kind of disappointing.

It's clear from that post that Slim Charles received the Aegis #2 litho directly from the Visceral store.

Grasping, grasping, grasping, I got the Aegis from KoC, liked the way it looked framed and decided to grab the rest. I liked having a #2, and was hoping to get low numbers on the rest, but it didn't pan out.
We didn't "swap", we agreed to terms here, we both felt more comfortable going through ebay for our first time, he purchased the Ilium on ebay, then as soon as I received the lithos from him, I sent out the Ilium. It seemed the like best way to get things done. I didn't, and still don't, feel comfortable with a straight-up swap where I have no protection from a 3rd party.
Even you have got to admit that your case pretty much sucks.
And the Aegis 7 was released seperately and several weeks before the other 3, so there goes another straw.

So Charles, you want to make a legal analogy? Fair enough.
If one were to "make a case" in this setting, that person would have to be taken at his word. Correct? Very well, I'll let your own words speak for themselves.

I was just making stuff up in that email, I was trying to give the guy an idea of trade values on lithos and made up approximate prices and acted like they were my sales. The user I talked with couldn't actually find any of those sales on ebay because they did not exist. I have never sold anything but an Illium and a Citadel, both to users of this board through private deals (though we went through ebay for the Illium deal because the buyer did not have Paypal). I believe I even talked to you on a couple occasions over the past few months about possibly swapping a Citadel for an Omega (a guaranteed money-loser if I intended to sell eventually). You can check my ebay account, I would have had no reason in the past to use an alternate account for sales. I had no idea this misunderstanding with the board would come up.

In a "courtroom," whether it be in a legal sense or one of public opinion, participants are trying to discover who is telling the truth. In small-claims court, whoever the judge believes is lying loses the case. You only have to be caught in a lie once.
You are a self-admitted liar Charles. How can anything you say be taken at face value? On that basis, I think we can agree that your case pretty much sucks.
Maybe you should look into politics instead of medicine.

Ok, so you got your straw-grasping butt handed to you and now you resort to completely unrelated material to try and save face. There is no legal analogy to be made, you can't believe that someone would actually say something positive about me, so you string together some absurdly weak story to try and tie the two of us together. You representation of how small-claims cases are settled is patently false, you seem to think how they do it on Judge Judy is how real cases are settled. You can get caught lying twelve ways from Sunday and still win if the other side is in a bad enough spot.
You lost, even those cronies who usually stick around to take shots at me have nothing to say here because you are obviously failing pretty miserably.

Really Charles? The issues of honesty and integrity are "unrelated"? On the contrary, they are the central issues in this "discussion." By your own admission, you possess neither. Not only did you not admit your deceit until you were cornered, you did not even have the decency to apologize for it.
I called you out on that and you hid like a little girl. So who got their butt handed to them?
My views on the workings of small-claims court were not obtained by watching Judge Judy as you derisively suggest, but by being party to a couple of cases and witnessing several others. In my experience, that is how it works.
As for cronies, what are you talking about? Is the whole world out to get you, or just everyone on this board? I haven't posted anything on the forums for 2 weeks or so. In that time you've antagonized a number of people all by yourself. You've even managed to irritate Jed, who is always trying to help other board members. Good going pal.
Perhaps others don't want to 'feed the troll." After all, we all know who the #1 Troll is.

I am done discussing whether or not KoC and I are the same person, it is obvious to anyone reading this that you have nothing legitimate to tie us together.
As for cronies, there are 4 or 5 other users who just love to criticize everything I say, regardless of what it is. I did nothing to antagonize Jedi, two perfectly reasonable and legitimate posts that, coming from any other user, he would have just left alone and/or explained the situation without resorting to petty and uncalled-for name calling.
And I am not goinf to apologize for what should have been a harmless white lie that I told to give you a fair idea of resale value of lithos. Your obsession with that message is bordering on tragic at this point.

No lie is truly harmless. Perhaps the other people on the board just have higher standards for themselves and others than you do. ****** isn't grasping at straws here. I think he has a rather well-formulated argument.

Back to the topic though, none of my shirts have ever shrunk in the dryer, though I use a very low setting. When possible, I hang them to dry. I think they are all made of 100% cotten after all.

It seems to me like there are two (or more?) types of shirts that come out of the Bioware store: the thin kind and the thick kind. My husband and I both have mounds of T-shirts from Bioware and they all fit perfectly well, true to size. I'd say that the thin ones are a bit more slim-fitting to begin with but stay that way forever, and the thicker ones are a bit sloppy to begin with but shrink up a bit. In my experience anyway =) My huz is a XXL and I'm a M and our shirts have always been perfect fits.
Hope that helps a little =)
