    Link isn't working anymore... perhaps the item got pulled?

    Nah, sadly it's still there - eBay was just having a conniption. The idiot has reduced the opening bid price for the knockoff Prime, though.

    Damn!
    I like how he says that the KO Optimus has been in a Glass Cabinet most of his life - Wouldn't that make him like 5 or 6 at max?
    (The molded over 'Year' section of the stamp is rather indicative )

    The bidding has passed $100 :O

    This asshat must be stopped... no matter the cost.

    Just do what I've done numerous times.
    Win the item, then point out that it's counterfeit, and pull out from the sale.

    I wouldn't worry about it too much. They're probably just shill bids to drive up the price. And seriously, if anyone does win this for a high price, they get what they deserve by not researching it first.

    That might sound a bit harsh, but it's the same with anything you might purchase - do your homework.

    At the Parra fair you have idiots paying ridiculous 300-400% mark ups on KOs. They could easily go online and buy the legit item for less than what they are paying there yet they still go ahead and buy the fair KO.

    If you tell them they are buying a KO, they just look confused back at you or indifferent.

    $227.50 and still over 1 day to go!

    Lol@latest question:

    Q: Hi, this looks remarkably new. Can you tell me more about the history of the item and whether you are the original owner?
    A: hi there this came from my fathers collection, he has had these for quite sometime in a glass cabinet. I Hope this helps. Goodluck

    Notice how there are no photos that are close up to the toy and are far away and most are just of the box?

    Photographic Bastardry at its vilest.
