    It's been an awesome pleasure doing business with METROCON. We worked out a deal for my MIB Brave Maximus, and he was super communicative and paid exactly when he said he would. Even better, he followed up with some pics of BM as part of his collection :) 

    Without hesitation, I give METROCON my highest recommendation. And I hope we can do more business sometime in the very near future!

    I RARELY leave negative feedback for anyone. I think the only two times I've done so are for people who have literally scammed me. While METROCON didn't scam me at all, he did go completely against agreed upon terms and a deal we set up where I was supposed to sell him an item.

    The Initial Situation
    He posted a a want thread and I responded to him letting him know I was selling something he wanted and said to let me know if he was interested.

    He replied saying he was and asked for a shipping quote, which I got for him.

    The Deal
    He said he wanted to buy, but asked if I could hold it for him for about a week. I replied saying I don't normally do holds but that I would if he agreed to the price and agreed on a set date on which he'd pay. I did also say that if something came up that he could let me know.

    The Issue
    A few days later I receive a PM saying that he's letting me know that something came up and he's letting me know he can't go through with the deal, and he goes on to say that someone else contacted him with a lower price and that is the reason he's backing out of our deal.

    While I do appreciate that he contacted me to let me know he was backing out, the reason is not one I think is acceptable given that I specifically set out the terms for the agreement and he accepted.

    It's because of the rare (but not that rare) member who does this that I don't like to do holds, and the reason why I've decided to leave this feedback and made it clear that I will no longer work with METROCON again in the future.

    I hope everyone who still decides to do business with him in the future has a better experience than I did.

    Bought an RiD Spychanger X-Brawn from Metrocon, and it went awesomely! The price was good, the communication was great, and he was willing to work with me on everything.

    Also, if you guys will pardon my French, Metrocon doesn't fuck around with packaging. I've bought expensive guitar pedals less securely packed than this 15-year-old Spychanger, and I was thrilled to see it. I'm sure X-Brawn was also happy to be safely reunited with his brothers. :D

    Bought some Halo Mega Bloks from him and man his packing skills are awesome. I could have dropped the package from 5 stories up and it would have been fine. Dont hesitate to buy from him
