There are several details in the ebay ad that show this to be a pre-Worldcon edition. I have taken it on myself to notify the seller. Still a good deal.

| Actually, the seller was very gracious, and agreed to correct the ad to reflect the proper edition. |

| You bet! He has already corrected the ad, and the $244 USD opening bid also seems quite reasonable. |

Looks like the 2006 model to me.
I'm flattered that they chose to link my instructions - however, they need to link the 2006 version instead of the Worldcon version:

*Very* pissed off... Bid 200 quid (willing to go higher) and I lost, max bid of... 200 quid?!? It even lists my bid but says I didn't win?
What's with that??? |

Hi
I looked at the ebay ad that ended. There were two bidders with identical bids of 200 GBP put forward. The winning bidder is the one who placed the 200 GBP bid first before the ebay time clock ended.  |

| I thought it had to be bumped to the next bid? Bit unfair otherwise? |

Yeah, usually do myself, but was out and about so it was over 3G on my iphone. I'd have gone a bit higher too!
Same amount, but he was first?!? Doesn't seem like an auction to me; still, fair play to him! |
