I hate it when they address you as "friend".
They also regarded the toy as a project which put me off that this is fake.

Yes they pulled the "Friend" thing with me too.
Sorry I know this is a little off topic but has anyone bought on ebay from toy_story_world? I got MP-15 and it was well packaged and so the box arrived mint. But I also ordered the MP-11 and MP-10B combo and it had no bubblewrap. Sure enough the MP-11 box has some dents. I'm not happy with it and also not happy with their communication, blaming the postal service and not their subpar packaging. They reckon I can claim on the insurance but I doubt they will honour the claim. Oh well ai won't be buying from them again.
I ordered mp-11 off them on the sunday during 15% off, got shipping notification on the monday and it arrived on the friday. No there was no bubble wrap, just a cardboard box that it fit perfectly into, thankfully no damage.Quote:

They've offered me a paltry $10 refund for a ~$350 purchase. Negative feedback it is. Avoid this seller if you want boxes mint.
Has anyone from here tried their luck with the Masterpiece Megs from nhctk? The 2 feedback they've gotten on them so far look possibly legit. I'm aware YMMV when it comes to customs.
that's a bit hush, I have bought from them numerous times. and though not bubble wrapped it was well packed. If you are that sick about your MISB go and insure them and specify your requirements.Quote:

Sorry but throwing it in a box with no protection and hoping for the best is not good enough.Quote:

For anyone else, he is the cheapest to get a mp-11,and mp-10b I definitely still recommend dealing with him, if you needed extra protection ask, it is stated in his auction that he uses stuff to minimum postage that may damage to box. Though he also said all larger items will fit in larger boxes.
But yeah is true, avoid him for those who require misb, you are better off paying $50 to $100 more for your satisfaction of a neat box.
i have just found out that it appears that the guy selling the MP Megs is legitimate. Box was a bit banged up but supposedly otherwise fine.
So there you go, not a scam. Too bad I have no interest in MP-05 because they have been going for some bargain prices. If only I could get a deal like that on MP-10B :(
It's $179 for the safest bet at the moment for mp-10b or mandrake for a loose used one when it comes along.Quote:

So it looks like our MP-09B seller has been pulled off ebay. Latest feedback says it was a cheap KO. There ends that sorry chapter...
Would love to see it to know what we were expecting.Quote:

not really, as the announced mp05 is supposed to have a new shiny deco, the mp05 i recieved was just a standard mp05 so i doubt they're production rejects/lunchtime specials
i'm still not convinced that the mp09b was a ko seems unlikely that we have 2 people who never recieved them and then 1 that recieved a ko and i can't find anyone else on other forums that are aware of the mold being ko'd usually by the time its hitting ebay theres announcements floating around the internet
I agree. Outside of this guy the Internet is not aware of a KO version. Maybe he just got a crappy toy?Quote:

And the contents of the package.... a Xmas Sweater! :p
Anyone else received a Red Xmas Sweater from any of these 'strange' eBay listings?
Looks like it's that time of year again! It's almost like they have a sense of humour or it's a biting satire against perceived Capitalist Christian countries. Oh dear.Quote:

It's so the tracking says it's delivered, so you can't honestly say it never arrived, just that the item was not as described. Then you might have to send it back at your own cost to be refunded, blah blah blah. It's preying on that, the 45-day dispute window, and the fact that lots of people can't be arsed to deal with the effort of disputing it all.Quote:

It appears jan7710 are now no longer be a registered user and has received 14 negative feedback scores.
All of my Ebay experiences up until now have usually been pretty good. I have to say I feel pretty disappointed that I'm escalating to a paypal resolution centre dispute. :mad:
Fingers crossed for a favorable outcome from the paypal resolution centre.
Yeah I won a 'MP-10b for $30 so I took a chance. Turns out its a scam.
ohhh no.... i am sure ebay rules!!!Quote:
