Product Purchased: ASL Advanced Squad Leader Starter Kit #3 Tanks MMP AH (320251556165)
Product As Advertised: Yes
Shipped Quickly: Yes
Customer Service: Good
This is a collection of rules, counters and assorted necessities to get a player up to speed on the Advanced Squad Leader game system. It was reasonably priced and shipped fairly quickly.
But the feedback comment this vendor left for me — “A posative transaction- good ducky & ok thank you. we are happy to be of service” — is not only misspelled, it’s nonsense.
I really hate that, and for that reason, I will not use this vendor again.

Sixth Fleet is a war game about 1980s naval action in the Mediterranean. It’s a bit complex to play and pretty much theoretical.
This game was exactly as advertised, shipped quickly and well-packaged. I would definitely use this vendor again.

Product Purchased: A World At War 2003 by GMT NIB (370046238693)
Product As Advertised: Yes
Shipped Quickly: Yes
Customer Service: Great
This is arguably the ultimate War board game: nearly 3,000 counters and 12 square feet of mapboards covering the entirety of World War II. This game is also out of print and, according to GMT Games, its maker, will remain so for at least two years.
I had previously bid $175 for an opened copy of this game and lost, so this auction was a real find. The vendor was responsive to my additional payment for first-class postage and insurance; and he shipped the item quickly and well-packed.
I couldn’t be happier with the purchase or vendor. If Wisconsin wasn’t a million miles away, I’d visit his store. As it is, he’s added to the favorite sellers list. I’ll definitely buy from him again.

Product Purchased: 3.5mm CAR STEREO AUDIO iPOD iPHONE AUX INPUT CABLE/CORD (270233048781)
Product As Advertised: Yes
Shipped Quickly: Yes
Customer Service: Great
I love iTunes, but it’s a pain in the butt to run it while I am working. So, i figured, why not patch my iPhone into the Sirius boom box I recently purchased?
The problem is, the iPhone’s headphone jack is recessed a bit, making it difficult to plug an off-the-shelf mini-to-mini cable into it.
eBay to the rescue, as usual. This item is a fairly cheap cable with a take-up reel snapped into its middle. Unfortunately, the cable itself is very tricky; I find I need to fiddle with it a bit to get it to work. But when it works, it works well.
The price was fair, it was shipped quickly, the item mostly works, and I’d probably use this vendor again.

Product Purchased: BLACK LEATHER BELT CLIP CASE+PROTECTOR FOR APPLE IPHONE (300217552882)
Product As Advertised: Yes
Shipped Quickly: Yes
Customer Service: Great
This is a generic leather pouch for pretty much any phone, but it definitely is an excellent choice for an iPhone, especially if your phone is contained in a gel.
My iPhone is wrapped in a gel with a “T” on the back that you can use to store your earphone cables, so it’s about twice as wide as a normal iPhone. It fits snugly into the case; with a standard gel, you’ll have plenty of room.
The thing I also like about this case is that in addition to a sturdy leather-covered metal belt clip, it has a leather loop that snaps onto the top, providing extra security to ensure the case doesn’t come off your belt.
It’s real leather, the front is fairly rigid; in short, I don’t understand how they can sell this thing for 99 cents, but it’s well worth the investment.
Ordered Monday, received Friday. It even came with a bonus screen protector and polishing cloth.
It looks from colordrives’ feedback that they have the typical customer service problems of many Power Sellers, but I couldn’t be happier with this transaction and would definitely use them again.
