ANY seller is a gamble. If you go by feedback percentages wheeljackslab, he's no worse than any of the other big-time sellers. IIRC, he's the biggest TF seller on eBay so of course he's going to be scrutinized in the spotlight more than anyone else, especially on an internet forum.
I've had I believe 5 transactions with him. 1 bad, 4 good. The bad one was on a junker Mirage supposedly with the waist intact, which it ended not being (it was glued together). I emailed him, he eventually replied (communication was indeed slow) requesting pics, I sent them, he said send it back. I did. He refunded my $ along with return shipping. The entire exchange was completely civil.
Even if a problem with him isn't smooth, avoid the email drama, file a paypal dispute and be done with it. You'd be out, what, around $5 after winning the PP dispute. That's the risk right there, the $5 you'd lose to ship it back to him. If you're really after that Starscream, I'd say it's worth it. |

Very good point, but I did not buy it from him. I wound up finding it cheaper from someone else and got a Cloudburst too. yay! FEEDBACK THREADS eBay TFW2005 ALLSPARK TFANS |

i bought a g1 prime and megatron from him and i am pissed because i paid 200 bucks and hope i get a refund. The title said Transformers G1 Lot Optimus Prime and Megatron W Labels and they were encore reissues, i paid 25 bucks for shipping and it took 15 days to get here and he was also in the US. He packed them in a box with a piece of bubble wrap and everything was loose and a prime missile was missing. Megatron came broke and primes trailer came broke too. |

Wheeljackslab? Don't bother, and here's why.
1. Prices are based on the highest scale possible. You can definitely find better prices out there.
2. Condition of his items are questionable to say the least. Most of the time you'll find one picture that really shows you nothing you NEED to see.
3. His communication skills are horrid. I asked a simple question to see if there were any paint chips on a variant gestalt figure, and I made a request for another picture. His responce? "Item is not mint".
I could go on and on about his poor business skills, but I have little wish to spend anymore energy on this subject.
Please spread the word about this sub-par dealer, and do yourself a favor as a lover of these toys...When you see his name involved, just move on.
Thanks for your time, my fellow memebers. Best wished in all your toy hunting experiences.   Feedback: http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/junkio...enobi-bot.html |

So what about this Galvatron gun I BIN from him for only $6 shipped. He offers his items, last time I checked(which was last weekend), for average prices, just because he doesn't offer his items for dirt cheap dosn't mean you should bash him for it.

"Item is not mint". | You do know that he sells hundreds, if not thousands of items a week right? If he had time to spend it describing every little detail and sending out pics to every person that asks he'd never be done answering questions Quote:

I'm tired of people bad-mouthing him, bashing him whenthere's one little mistake, "Oh no, there's a tiny little nick here underneath a magnifying glass, he's a bad seller." Out of the whole time I've dealt with him there was only one problem, he accidently sent me the wrong part for Blurr, sent a left when I needed a right arm guard, so I informed him of what happened and he fixed it straight away. You'd be a fool not to deal with Chris aka "Wheeljackslab".  BST Thread,WANT LIST,FEEDBACK |
