Scalping 7 Devastators on ebay

[Sharky]

his user name is quite familiar to me but I don't know where from

I love his little updates (no not really)

UPDATE: I only have 3 left, be one of the first in the world to own this awesome bot!

**UPDATE2: just been advised from Big W rep that they WILL NOT be getting more stock. However it is rumoured there will be a delivery in late August⁄September for those willing to take a chance and wait a few months to save some money.

(special thanks to the Ozformers, Talk Transformers and TCCA fan clubs for constantly posting and sharing this Ebay link, I appreciate the free advertising guys!)

I find the update #2 inaccurate if he did get all that info from the Campbelltown region as I know one store is getting more stock in...

and like BruiseLee and BTT said what a cheeky thing to add, but how very true we are advertising for him. I wonder if there is a complaint to ebay there for him using the site name without permission or something

Yep, that's the risk of talking about anyone that is doing something you want to complain about... you give them exposure in return, because you can't really talk to others about what they are doing without showing what they are doing.

It is a bit of poor form rubbing it in our noses listing our site, but I don't know if the other two sites listed were making the same fuss, or were legitimately promoting his listing.

Hopefully they went to non-Australians who have to wait a couple months to get one... because an Australian should know that more are coming, even if it is with other stores later in the year. It isn't the end of the world if you don't get a specific toy immediately... it is fun and preferred, but not life-threatening.
It's just poor form of that individual that it had to come at the expense of 7 Sydney fans who could have bought one at that store last week.
(I guess the $800-ish profit was worth more than being trusted or respected by actual toy fans.)

I see that another 5 are on ebay from four other Australians, and two others that sold... all are about $300 or more... jumping on the band-wagon.

At least it is just people selling off one, hopefully to desperate non-Australians.

We just have to keep telling the local fans here that more are coming... if not at BigW, it will be at other Retailers here soon. There is no need to pay an "impatience tax" of $100+ if it just means waiting another week or two for more to show up here.

If you really can't wait, try to see if you can have a play with a friends until then.

Some might say even paying the retail is "impatience tax" with inevitable sales coming up, but I prefer to think it's showing Hasbro that yes, we want more like this.
