    Lol my longkfei88_90 order now says on its tracking "return to sender processed," ostensibly due to the "cannot be delivered" issue. Still no refund, still no communication from him, still no PayPal claim advancement. No response from USPS on my missing mail claim.

    My patience persists, but it's still irksome.

    Its been almost 2 weeks to get to this stage. Lets see...

    Thought I'd pop in here and mention someone I've just had the misfortune to come across. Skimmed their feedback quickly, managing to be a total idiot and missing the first few lots of negative feedback that point out this EXACT problem.

    huiziwang2014. Bought this: 2017 COOL Transformers TOY FanToys FT-10 Phoenix MP Jetfire G1 Action Figure | eBay and after he told me everything was fine and the free shipping included my country, he turns around and sends me some weird messages about wanting more money and the item not being in-stock. Heh.

    I took some screenshots yesterday (I took them out of order but I've posted them in chronological order).
    I've edited them to take out my personal details (though I imagine that's unnecessary at this point, but you never know).
    Oh, and in regards to the first message I sent him, I had a problem with my PayPal account over the weekend that I had to get sorted out, so I took a few days to pay him after accepting his counter-offer to me (yeah, I saved jack, oh well). Shit happens though. That shouldn't be a problem. Not a $69 problem, anyway.
    Have fun.

    I've filed an eBay "return request" (that whole thing does my head in - since they changed it, it has become a lot more confusing, I swear) since he hasn't replied in over a day, but I might ring PayPal in the morning to expedite it (they close at 12am NZ time and it's 1am here now).
    I'm not too worried - I'm going to buy one from an actually reputable seller now, as I'm sure I won't have a problem getting my money back, but I thought this was worth letting everyone know about because he clearly can't be trusted, despite his feedback.

    EBay seller iuubc is no good. I had high hopes. The tracking number I received was for a postcard and two paper bookmarks.

    PayPal now says they have to wait for the package,which is now marked return to sender apparently, to arrive back in China before they can refund me. Wtf? It's abundantly clear I'll never see this item. It's abundantly clear longkfei88_90 is a scammer. What is the thing preventing them from finding in my favor here?

    I'm now almost more irked by the delay in PayPal acting, than I am with the scam itself. It's not about the money, it's about the principle.

    I prefer "cool dude" over "legend" but appreciate the compliment. It's really a joint effort with members on the board and the willingness of my suppliers to discount their prices for my rub deals. I just try to connect the two (and don't get me wrong, I BUY PLENTY IF NOT ALL of the figures I organize deals for - so it's not like I am mother teresa ;)  peace...

    I've asked the same question and I am still waiting myself because I want to pull the trigger on Wildrider Transformission Havoc, I hope someone can give us some feedback on him here soon.

    I'm guessing no one here has dealt with the seller. The prices are pretty good on some of the items, the kind of good that make me nervous. But, some feedback has been left for some of the very discounted items and it's positive so.....

    I might just bite the bullet and give it a try.

    Ebay:
    Does anyone have info on liuxufefei or skxx2016_3, they both have/had FT-05 Soar MISB, both auctions look(ed) identical from both. I contacted both and liuxufefei responded and stated there was a mistake with the description and that the last two he had were opened not MISB, then he must have changed the auction description to reflect that.

    Three people have bought a Soar from skxx2016_3 in the last couple of weeks... is that any members here?

    Also what are your guys thoughts on wuhanlipu? I ordered from him, received a legit tracking number, but I had contacted him two days ago after the sell but he has not responded yet, should I be worried?

    Bougth "G-creation Shuraking 25cm SRK-03 Grimlock Steel lock in stock MISB" from zhenbozhenbo201313 on 18 July. He shipped the item same day and gave me two tracking numbers, but I still can't get any info on it, just see "Shipping info received". The orders from bababobo ordered 19 July already delivered. Looks like the next scammer appeared.

    I noticed that as well. Apparantly she just opened an account on Amazon. It may be worth keeping an eye on to see if and when she offers TF items there.
    Amazon.com Seller Profile: smartlulup2010

    Unce Billy too recently shut down his AliExpress account and keeps his Ebay account (johosontony) active in addition to launching his own website. www.unclebillyshop.com

    Are sellers moving away from AliExpress for some reason?

    Speaking of Uncle Billy, his Ebay Store currently has ACE 01 Tumbler (3P MP Cliffjumper) for $40 shipped.

    I received my package from iuubc today. Looks like I have to go on eBay and eat some crow. As well as cancel my dispute on PayPal. Not happy with the transaction and the postcard nonsense but I did get my Warbotron
