    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.

    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 think he's saying he doesn't want international bidders the lazy way

    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.

    Makes them play fair!
