He will get canned from ebay for doing what he does. He is trying to get around paying final value fees. If the buyer pushes it, he gets the dio for $13.50. This is a chicken-shit way of doing business. Not to mention that dio looks like a middle school class project. I have made many dioramas and sold them on ebay (at true auction) 2 of which went for over $500. I would not give the $13.50 winning bid for this one. But thats just me.

I agree Dave, the way he "tried" to sell this is just bullshit. It's shit like this that has made ebay the horror it is today. and yes I believe you made better in 10th grade :)

See, the set builders are uniting! I'd build my own AND differently!!!

Mmm... you're right. I didn't read the description. I have meet with shipping fees scalpers but this is new to me. Is there a way to alert eBay about this?

vader9900 11-26-2008 01:24 PM

If you look at this guys feedback, it looks like every item he sells is done this way. You can report any auction to ebay, at the bottom of every auction is report this item. He will get canned, a buyer will not read the description and turn him in. I am suprised it has not happened already. To the buyer beware.

Done!
But his sets are good.

Haha Vader, you need too realize "good set" in G.I. Joe terms is different from any modeling hobby. It all goes back to a guy with "AMAZING DIOS" (that are never announced here :rolleyes: ) who's foamboard sets became the #1 influence.

So what you are saying is that the buyer payed 13 dollar to get the privlige of buying it for 107 dollar? If I had bid on it I would have had to pay 100+ dollar? :mad: And the set was okay, imo worth 13 dollar.

Exactly you pay $13.50 for the privilege of paying him to make one for you for $107.25.
