I always use the same Deputy Service, thus far, 
to bid on items off of YJ.  Well, over a month 
ago now I was told by this Deputy that one item 
had been lost... very vague, but ok, there's not 
a lot I can do I guess *sigh*.  Now, two weeks 
ago, I found out that another item was lost, 
that I very badly wanted... ugh, I was very 
disappointed.

Well, tonight I find that second item is on a 
rubberslug members site!!!  I am furious!  It is 
definitely the exact same item(I am being very 
vague to protect identities so far)!  This 
person isn't even a japanese resident or 
anything of that nature because they are known 
for being in the US, trust me.  Well, this would 
mean that the Deputy royally F-ed up and sent my 
item to the wrong person and then A. that seller 
kept the item unmorally or B. They thought they 
had won them and hence paid for them.  For the 
time being, since this person is known to be a 
good person, I'm going with B.  This would also 
mean that the Deputy may have told them they 
couldn't bid then told them they won, sent the 
item to the wrong address or many other 
scenarios.
There is also the chance that the Deputy did 
this private collector a special favor, but I 
highly doubt it.

I have no idea what to do about this.  I have 
contacted the Deputy(whom gets to remain 
nameless for now*grr*) and have not recieved a 
response thus far.  I am waiting to contact the 
rubberslug member because they are probably 
completely innocent.

The only saving grace in all this is that the 
Deputy informed me that both the items were lost 
before I paid for them, so at the very least I 
didn't loose money.  This is a huge mistake 
though, and possibly unforgivable, but we'll 
see.  This is not the first, second, or third 
time that this Deputy has screwed over myself or 
a friend.

The main point of this post was to ask if anyone 
knows the whereabouts of the cel in the 
picture.  It is the first item that was lost, 
that has yet to be found.  I know I said I would 
be vague, but this item has been missing for a 
while now.  It would have ended on YJ roughly 
two months ago.  I would really appreciate 
knowing if this cel had the same fate as the 
second item, so I can contact the Deputy about 
it, if not more.  Thank you all for your time.
