    Getting tired? For some six months or so, it's been obnoxious having to wade through all the movie stuff and KOs flooding the listings to try and find something even relevant, let alone good. I used to just go the main/first page, either overall TF or G1 subcategory, click newly listed and just go through the first 5-10 pages. That's how you find freshly listed good shit with low BINs. Now that yields 75% crap. The only way to find anything is individual character/faction searches, and even those are cluttered up if there's a movie version or KO.

    i understand being short on mula, dotn get me wrong, but with all the movie bullshit on there, who the hell wants to buy or even look for that matter. it gets nausiating, i just want to see something new once in a while, even rinkya is getting clogged with it. I just like seeing new stuff.

    I've had to update all my regular searches with -movie appended to them. It may remove listings trying to keyword spam but at least I don't deal with all the excess.

    Sorry, wasn't trying to be a dick about it. I totally understand that it must be a pain in the ass for guys like you who are frequent eBayers.

    I hear you! Too many movie figs. Thankfully most of what I've been looking or is specific and not movie related, so I haven't had too many probs lately.

    sorry man, thats one of my most coveted LDs. saw one for 700 about 2 years ago, and now nothing/nada, nil, so i have been saving up for the day to pull the big trigger, hopefully it wont get too big.

    also remember the big up roar for the 08 bubmlebee, now you cant swing a dead cat without hitting one of those toys. thats why I'm waiting the clearance sell at walmart to do my starscream MP buying, the walmart by me has about 10 MP optimus's still left on the top shelf/ collecting dust. so i expect ss will be the same. the scalpers out now missed the boat, scalping is only good for those guys in the begining.

    i here ya mal...as you know i'm always on the hunt for rare minibots and quite a few of them are bumblebees...and now i don't even search for that name any more because all i end up with is 39 pages of "08 htf concept camaro bumblebee" and what pisses me off even more they have them listed as "g1"
