00Geass Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Hello, I was recently scammed on Amazon (Just now actually). I bought a VF HI-METAL VF-19 Kai and received a 1/100 bandai kit from 1995 of the Fire Valk instead, I've since filed a claim. While that gets resolved i want to see if any one here is trying to get rid of one. I bought the two accessory sets on Mandarake so I really need one now. Along with Cash through Paypal, I also have a few Robot damashii and Figuarts I'd be willing to trade for a Fire Valk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jenius Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 If you don't have a buddy in Japan, it's something I would only advise for things that are very hard to come by through other means. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanner Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 (edited) I've never ordered from YJA, I have no idea how to, unfortunately its pretty easy actually.. just go to the buyee.jp website, sign up / create an account and start searching and shopping. I have purchased a good dozen or so things through them and have had 100% success. How it works is they act as an intermediate and bid on the item on your behalf. Then if you win, the goods are shipped to them, then they forward the goods on to you. Yes you pay a service fee, the freight costs to and from them which is kinda like double handling but it works pretty well! I have even trusted buying my very rare and sought after Max & Milia VF-1J pair though them and those little babies cost me a small fortune! And many others! I found Buyee the best and most straight forward of the proxy buying services. Edited November 6, 2015 by spanner76 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

00Geass Posted November 6, 2015 Author Share Posted November 6, 2015 What was the link or seller in Amazon if you don't mind me asking? http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002QYNIGG?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00 That's the item, the seller was Tokyo Line.

spanner Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 Yeah, I got refund and they told me to keep the kit. then you could always on sell the kit! and you're ahead! or you gonna build it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
00Geass Posted November 7, 2015 Author Share Posted November 7, 2015 then you could always on sell the kit! and you're ahead! or you gonna build it? I honestly don't think anyone wants this thing, it looks pretty lousy. I might later on build it as a Battroid only kit since it has buff proportions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wmkjr Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002QYNIGG?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00 That's the item, the seller was Tokyo Line. They say is was an accident it was listed there (yeah, sure) and that they're going to refund my payment Thanks for the link. Yeah after looking at the link I think Amazon needs to edit the listing. The product description and pics are for the HI-METAL but the summary and title on top are for the model kit. One way to tell is the HI METAL doesn't have landing gears and the model does that and like you siad the model is more blocky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
