“Items will be sent in two boxes” on the set of 10? Oh heck no! I wouldn’t touch that auction with a 20 foot pole. If I had the money I might consider the old warrior, especially if it ends cheap-ish for a prototype, but even then, it’s a huge gamble, and he’s insisting on a non-refundable form of payment. Sounds really fishy to me.
May 23, 2007 at 8:43 am #579717Wow… yeah… I will be staying out of this also. 😯 😛
May 23, 2007 at 12:16 pm #579718I ONLY pay with Money Orders on Ebay. All it takes is one time of getting your CC # stolen and you learn to pay with cash or some form of it.
I don’t even own a paypal account, so if someone only takes paypal, I miss out on it! But o’well. I am not however interested in 10 pieces I can get for much less than 1,299.00, especially not packed into 2 boxes. I don’t care how big they are. 🙄May 23, 2007 at 12:27 pm #579719Forgive me… I cant read the auction, but maybe ‘packing in two boxes’ means double boxing?? Maybe??
May 23, 2007 at 12:27 pm #579720So WC what would you do if something ended up broken or you never got the item?
May 23, 2007 at 1:23 pm #579721Or they say they never got payment?
May 23, 2007 at 1:39 pm #579722I tend to agree.. paying only by physical means (i.e. check or money order) makes me nervous. I do it for friends and people I know, but for a stranger… it’s a little scary. I like to know that I have at least some recourse if someone tries to rip me off.
I’m thankful that most credit card companies and paypal will honor the buyer if they get ripped off. Some years ago people didn’t have this form of protection (but then again there was less access to scammers back then too).

My art: featherdust.comMay 23, 2007 at 4:04 pm #579723I agree with Nam. I always make my purchases via credit card to ensure that I can get a refund if a problem arises.
May 23, 2007 at 4:07 pm #579724If you pay with paypal do they get your credit card number? I know whenever I pay with it they have only the last 4 digits listed.
May 23, 2007 at 4:09 pm #579725No, the seller never sees your credit card info at all. That’s the nice thing about Paypal.
May 23, 2007 at 4:10 pm #579726I could get them for less if i payed the fulll prices for them over here! 😯
May 23, 2007 at 4:12 pm #579727I saw the prototype he listed and thought thats a good price but the fact that he doesn’t even have it listed as a prototype scares me. I mean if you had the letter from melody wouldn’t you include it in your auction? I don’t know its just seems fishy to me.
May 23, 2007 at 4:51 pm #579728Glad I am not the only one who thought the payment options were scary on this one.
May 23, 2007 at 6:26 pm #579729ive asked the guy a question about the ow yesterday. i will let you know if/when he responds.
the broken english, the bad spelling, the cash payments, it does not add up well.
wait, i just looked at the acution. he does accept paypal.
May 23, 2007 at 6:39 pm #579730The seller says he doesn’t prefer Paypal, but has it listed as an available option. Maybe he discourages it to avoid the high fee Paypal would charge, especially on a $1,200+ auction? Assuming someone bids which I’m sure he is hoping for.

The auction states it comes with a Letter of Authenticity.
