true we dont see that often. I'd pay good bucks for one if its in the box and complete. This one is in such poor condition that I could technically have a nicer blue bluestreak if I gave my prowl/bluestreak toys to a professional modeller and paid get him/her to paint it in the blue bluestreak colour scheme.

My thoughts exactly.. :cool:

heh. as the bidders of the auction no doubt have shown, some people might just be towing the 'it has to be an official Transformer' line too hard and perhaps too obsessively.

i didnt know it cost 2k to ship spike from grand max or the headmaster from black zarrak....... major news to me

Zarrak

Spike

I think he's saying he doesn't want international bidders the lazy way :rolleyes::D

I think hes saying he doesnt want any bidders ever :D

I've seen sellers do things like list all their auctions at $1.00 BIN and then vary the shipping charges (even within the States) according to what figure it is.

Like Hot House for $1.00 BIN, shipping is US$37.50; Bluestreak for $1.00 BIN, shipping is US$70.00.

If it weren't such a dirty trick to pull, I'd commend their ingenuity at avoiding eBay listing and final value fees.

You can report them to eBay who will eventually remove their listing if enough people complain - I think you cite that they are circumventing eBay fees or something along that line.

I've done it a couple of times to some sellers who want to sell an item BIN for $10 but want to charge $90 to post to Australia. :eek:

Makes them play fair!

i always find that reporting is a hit and miss kind of thing. Sometimes when the auction has only 2 or 3 days left, reporting seems to make no difference and it still runs its course.... hmmm

As I said, if enough people whinge about it, eBay will do something...

Next time post it here and I'm sure collectively we can all complain enough to make them remove it. :D

good idea, i'll keep that in mind.

goodness, this guy has been trying to peddle his top half Fracas body, in many many different ways, for months now. The description is quite hilarious too...
