Transformers questions by newbies, and not-so-newbies

[Sky Shadow]

I was out bid by what I suspect might be a shill bidder but then receive a second chance offer at my max which I realistically was willing to pay. Do I accept? I have to add it is minty and rare so pretty hard to come by. I'm leaning towards accepting.

Check the stats of the bidder who outbid you to see if it's shill bidding - do they have a fairly broad bidding history, or more often than not bid on items by that seller? You should only have to pay a compromised amount below your high bid and closer to the lower amount before the reneging/shill bidder came into play.

I didn't even know what shill bidding was until I read the last few posts (then went and Googled it). I've learnt something new today.

I passed on it (it was a Diaclone Sludge). The difference wasn't a lot, only $45. Ah well never mind.

It's having problems at the moment - just go to the cached pages instead.

I haven't been able to get onto it for a few days either... which is annoying when doing news postings or trying to answer people's questions. (or trying to work out certain puzzles on this board).

Yup, she's still pretty temperamental.

Anyhoo, got a few questions.

For anyone who has Alternity Bumblebee and any of the more recent Human Alliance figures, how does Bee work with the HA squishies as far as scale and interactivity go?
On a related note, how does Alternity 'Bee fare size-wise against MP Rodimus?

With the upcoming MP10 including a Human Alliance Spike figure I'm sort of intrigued as to how well Alt Bee would work with them.

size between Sam and HA Bumblebee is good, they work well together. Couldn't tell you about ALt Bee as I don't have him. The gimmicks are pretty poor but they (Bee and sam) are in scale

What's EMS international shipping like? Do they work through AUSPOST or are they their own company?

The postage from the US would probably cancel out the saving anyway, so why go overseas for it when you can get one locally for $67 posted?

its $99.99 now?
