I dont see anything wrong with that auction. His shipping price is about right................IF he were shipping it from MARS! :p

Yeah stumbled upon it looking for the AE Tallgeese 3 figure (picked up the other four AE figures for $40). Ebay will likely come down on him if anyne is stupid enough to bid.

I don't know who that guy is but he has been buying a TON of RT stuff for a TON of money lately. I'm thinking about retiring from Ebay for a few months so he can get everything he needs before I try buying anything again. He just paid $310 for an MIB Alpha, we had a member here selling one for $145 and only getting nibbles.

I think he has been sent by God to teach me very valuable lessons about patience

That guy's a Big Fish with cash... time to reel him in with your unwanted BT stuff on "Lake eBay" NOW before he stops bitting...

I had a similar experience with a guy bidding against me on old Hubley metal car kits, he was winning auctions and paying 3 to 4 times what current collector market prices were. I turned around an listed a few kits I had in duplicate/triplicate, and sure enough, he bid on all of them and I made a sweet profit off this guy. After a few months he was nowhere to be seen and I resumed bidding with normal eBayers, who knew the value of the kits, and didn't drive the prices up with hysterical bidding practices.

Check out this crazy price

I bought one of these a few weeks ago for less than $100 shipped. And that's more than I think it's worth since the hands suck and can't even hold the guns. Also it needs a stand to remain upright. Not much action in this action figure.

I think a better example of stupid ppl are the people who have bid $50+ on that "like takatoku" loose Galaxy Defender. If I'm not mistaking that's a $9.99 knock-off that was sold at Walmart??

you mean this one?

Bootleg valk

I totally agree. Can't they totally see that this is totally a bootleg? 50 bucks for this is waaaay to much. I might as well buy these at the stores and do the same thing.

It was some guy claiming to be from the future (2146, if I remember), and selling off the rights to a line in his screenplay, which he already knows is a best seller, and that he also knows that the winner will make a million in royalties. It had some pretty interesting things in the description, like how the king of the Earth is a sentient Octupus.

chris

but aren't laser disks more expensive than dvds? i'm sure all these disks are out of print and very rare...i can see why the guy would be selling them at such a high price...but since they're in the ld format, they're more of a collectable than something you'd wanna watch...laserdisks are pretty much for the hardcore fans...but then again...those prices are still way too jacked up :ph34r:

it seems like in japan that they are about the same now or less, then again i could be wrong it seems like LD's are all older so maybe that is why you can find them cheaper, but his prices are way to high, every set he has i have seen for a fraction of the price, the LD sets were expensive when they came out, but they should not be 2 thousand dollars now, like i said i almost got the ZZ set for $150.00, and i have seen some of the others for about $100.00 to $200.00 at most, his prices are absurd.

Hmmm... this guys is located in Japan and if you apply Yen amounts to his auctions, the prices become more realistic. Like 2,000 Yen instead of $2,000. I think he is confused and someone needs to send him an email?
