    That doesn't say it's a ko. It might be a scam but I don't know the exchange rates. Isn't a pound about two dollars? If so, that's right about what he's supposed to cost for the legit version.

    I paid 49,25 euros for it ( paypal exchange price ).
    And as you know, euros and dollars are almost the same now.
    1 euro is 1.05 or 1.06 dollars, so it's will be little over 50 dollars for you.

    Or for easy way: put that item in your watchlist. then go back to ebay.com for your us dollar ebay site. now go to your watchlist and it will be priced in dollars for you.
    Just keep in mind that paying with paypal, you pay a little bit more because of paypal exchange rate.

    And yes, it doesn't say it's a KO.
    So i hope i get a real Takara one.
    And since the KO version of Ratchet isn't on the market yet.

    Sorry, I read it wrong. I almost never deal with pounds and I've never dealt with euros so I guess I didn't notice the different symbol.

    $50 is too much for a ko and is low but not outside the realm of possibility for the real thing. Hope it works out. I've been wanting a Ratchet but I'm cheap so I'm waiting for the ko.

    I'd suggest waiting for it on Ebay and Amazon if you want free shipping.

    @Shanxs Feel free to copy this info and pic to your first post. Thanks.

    Although if the seller originally paid 50 euro/pounds= $US100 back in the day and now the exchange rate is 1:1...

    Good luck dude. Hope it works out for you. That UT Siegfried for 50 GBP plus the fact all his figures are all priced lower than the same items he previously sold, plus he's selling below market value... Well just too risky and a waste of time for this cheap man.

    It's already been discussed a bazillion times the effect jumping on scam auctions and then claiming thru PayPal has. Hurts everyone that uses eBay and PayPal in the end.

    We all would love for it to come thru for u and everyone that clicks on the link you shared. But it's probably after being burned countless times that I just try to avoid these types of "too good to be true" type deals..

    The guy looks like a scammer.
    No reply to mails.
    And the figure just went to 29 pounds.

    Yep. I noticed. He's a legit seller although his prices are a bit higher than what you'll find on Ebay. I guess the trade off is you know for a fact he won't scam you. I've bought from him twice before.

    That, and since it is on Amazon, you can use amazon gift cards or credit card reward points to help knock the prices down as well. I've bought from him several times as well.

    I've been waiting for this. Got my KO MP Ironhide from bestgrey and I can vouch for superb quality.

    I can import one of those so-called factory-leaked copies for 60 shipped.
