Murkablo

Post by Shikon01 » February 12th, 2014, 11:12 pm

Since I didn't get lucky and win the contest when this baby was up for grabs, I finally broke down and was able to purchase one from ebay recently...mainly because I was stupid and didn't buy a blizzCon ticket ( which BTW is a lot cheaper than ebay prices ). I will up that 40.00 bucks anytime when it comes to the pets :) Just added him to the rest of my zoo. He's so ugly that he's cute !! Probably will keep the name too :shock: I am now # 28 on my realm but that's a long way from # 1 lol !!

Grats on the Murkablo...

I'm still looking for those BlizzCon pets as well myself, apart from the Murkalot one... Sigh, will I ever get them? They are just awesome <3

Most problematic with Murkablo, is that pretty much all sellers of this pet don't sell to Europeans. Making it very expensive. Goes for most Blizzcon pets unfortunately.

It's not so much a Blizzard problem as it is a seller preference. My take on it is that shipping overseas costs quite a bit, and since the majority that attend Blizzcon probably reside in the US, those that sell the Blizzcon pet card on Ebay just don't want to go through the hassle of sending it internationally. That's just my impression, though. Again, it depends on the seller(s) and they may have their own reasons.

I do feel bad for these folks and I understand now. As a buyer and seller on ebay I don't personally do much internationally as I have been burnt too many times and sorting through complaints is a bit more in depth and complicated for not being a high volume seller the risks out weigh the benefits for me personally.
