    Well good luck to you.

    If you're really feeling lucky, why not buy two? If it turns out to be legit, I'd pay you double that for one. :lol

    well I had $16 to spare just sitting in Paypal so I figured what the hell. I'm 99% sure it can't be real but I'll wager $16 on that 1% that it is

    Free shipping, too? Probably just selling the box. Ha. That will be their excuse. "I never said the figures were included."

    Wow, it's bumped up from 9 sold to 16 since I first found it (right when the thread was made actually).

    I'd like to be one of those 16...

    But seriously it's probably not legit.

    Should the interior look like that? I haven't seen the Bruticus piece, so I don't know. It looks like an empty box. If they claim you're only buying what's in the picture, they could literally be selling the box. However, even the box would be worth something. Probably just taking the money and running.

    I went through the description, it neither mentions 'Item Pictured' or 'Just the box'. This is either a scam or a miss list, and I'll gamble the 16 bucks.

    I know. It doesn't mention either of these things, but I'm just saying they could use it as an excuse.

    Thats the great thing about Paypal though. I can link them to the listing if they do in fact just send me a box, and then I'll get a refund.

    The item has been taken down and the seller is no longer a member of eBay. Rats. I was hoping we lucked out. Haha. To the Resolution Center!

    I read that if it's related to an Ebay seller getting banned, you have to wait seven days. If you haven't received anything after this time frame (and I doubt you will), you can visit the Resolution Center to file for a refund.
