But it's so incomplete and scattered. Every other page has pertinent information but readers have to scroll through loads of discussion.
Is there anyway to clean it up and consolidate?
Also, when people ask a question about fakes that the thread doesn't cover, their posts get referred to that thread and closed?
Does anyone care to update that thread? I DON'T ASK FOR MUCH

Every Fort Max on ebay seems to have instructions but if you look at the seller's feedback, you'll see they were purchased from lanama(sp?)
I actually saw someone selling just the instructions as genuine when their feedback for the purchase occured mere days before. I DON'T ASK FOR MUCH

The thread is too incomprehensive and scattery, to the point that it is barely usefu. The subject and number of cases is getting so involved that to me it really needs its own section/set of threads, with a separate thread for each release.
That would get rid of the 'too messy to find what you want' problem and help people actually get to the info they're looking for.  | |

As I really would like to help those who are not sure what to look for to avoid them getting taken by punk ass sellers that bull S*&t. | |

Otherwise you really have to juxtapose two in hand - btw, those Omega Supreme instructions were the first time I had seen a comparison like that; thanks!
NEWS: linanma is no longer registered. He likely received too many reports of selling counterfeits. Making those reports and getting the actual buyers to report these scum sellers apparently works.
Unfortunately a seller, zoe_jj1984, now sells the same TF items w/the same pics. Curious, no? I reported him for being an alias of a banned user, but no action has been taken. This "new" Transformers seller also strategically makes his auctions private. | |
