Hey guys, was just looking around on ebay when i spotted

This Year of the Horse Starscream
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/111423144270?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649

at 107.95 it seemed liked too good of a deal and the fact that its shipping from China had me worried. Can anyone tell if this is a knock off?

The YOTH Starscream was only about US$80-90 when it was released at the start of the year, so that price isn't anything too suspicious.

Searching for "sold listings" on Ebay US, the toy doesn't sell for more than US$95 (plus shipping), with most selling for about US$80. This one is indeed a good price with shipping, but still not too good to be too suspicious.

I don't think it has been KOed, that I can recall.

The person does have a KO item for sale and notes that it is a KO, so probably would note it on the Starscream too if it was one.

The person has been on ebay for four years, so shouldn't be a scammer.

They do have several negative feedbacks, but none appears to be for Transformers.

Awesome, thanks for the informative response. Let's just hope when i buy this the seller doesn't use cheap packaging and it gets here fine.
