Whenever you can get the information, make sure to check the weight of the package. Sometimes I get lucky and can find a site that will display it. Had someone send a 0.3oz envelope and had my refund in process before it got to my door.

 

Have to say some postalservices are lazy and just put 0 as weight so that's not always true. Dimensions is a different story.

 

A positive experience with xialeyulo9 xialeyulo9 on eBay. Ordered Bulldog and Planet X Ironhide. Pretty quick delivery.

 

*UPDATE* - Still waiting on my items from liujunling87_5 & bid_bid_good, but these were purchased later than the other two buys I did. So, expected them to arrive later.

Here are my ongoing purchases so far from sellers in China that I am waiting on:

1) liujunling87_5 (on "Good" list) - Latest tracking status "Export customs declaration completed" shipped on 8/25
2) Supreme0519 (not on list) - *Please put on Good List* Arrived today, package well, box and contents in mint condition!
3) happy.go.go.buy.buy (not on list) - *Please put on Good List* Purchased MP-12+ and MP-14+, box was sturdy, but did suffer a crumpled end. Luckily the boxes to my MP arrived in mint condition with no damages at all. They were also wrapped in bubble wrap. Everything all there, very happy  
4) bid_bid_good (not on list) - "Tracking # provided" on 8/26..

If anyone has more info to the sellers above especially the ones not on the list, I would appreciate that. Hope everything works out *fingers crossed*

 

Clothing.2009 came through with my Crash Hog and Klaatu, he's great, and I noticed 2 people left feedback for ABCtoyshop123 that they received their TE-01, so far so good . . .

 

Yeah, I meant to comment on it when the first feedback was posted. They both seem to be from legit buyers with a decent number of feedback. I'm feeling a little more confident about my purchase, but still in the "cautiously optimistic" camp.

 

I can't believe it, but my block of styrofoam from Maojie1990 is out for delivery..lol

as long as I don't have to sign for it, I'll post the results tonight

 

Ooh exciting. I just filed for a refund from my maojie1990 purchase yesterday after a month. Do people try to get you to sign for it to make it seem more like a valid delivery?

 

80% of the time I order anything from China, it's registered and I have to sign for it, and since I'm not home during the day, I'll probably have one of those dang orange notes on the door saying I've gotta go to the post office tomorrow. I hope this isn't the case. Especially since we have a hurricane coming through in the next 12-24 hours..lol

 

MAJOR UPDATE:


OK. Weird gets weirder: today I actually GOT my MPP-36! I'm in a quandry now. It made NO sense for me to have pack of batteries shipped to me and that seller doesn't even sell batteries under the ID I purchased from, but that's not to say he can't be a bulk seller using different ID's for different products and somehow my package just got mixed up, BUT who orders a pair of AA's like comes with a TV remote all the way from China? Even if they're free, they wouldn't be worth shipping. I can't help but think that had I not raised a stink, I would have been stuck with the batteries and no Megs. I will stop the Paypal claim since I got what I ordered now, but I wouldn't trust this seller in the future. What do you all think?

 

Was it orange connex claiming the first one was batteries? if so I had that happen and when I contacted them about it they said that was a standard response but that wasn't why it was sent back to seller? To his merit my seller sent what I ordered straight out to me with a different courier without issue

 

I know toyfly2015 is on the good list but I just want to confirm a good transaction. Communication was a little lacklustre and they didn’t have the item I ordered (DX9 Hanzo) but they replaced it with KFC’s Transistor and I just got him today. He looks great and I don’t regret the change of figure at all.

 

I received them first but was already wary because the seller had immediately sent me an email when I purchased saying my package was shipping under a different number (which IS the one that arrived today), however I kept receiving updates from the seller after that on the OTHER package and he never updated the shipping info with eBay yet had the time to send me tons of shipping updates on both packages through eBay.

The day the pack with the batteries arrived, the seller sent me a message asking me to confirm delivery, and after getting a worthless pair of batteries instead of a big bot, it screamed "scam" to me. NOBODY buys just a pair of AA batteries to have them shipped 5000 miles. I've been on eBay for over 20 years and bought plenty of stuff from China and never felt like I was getting scammed before. Something else that really bugged me: the seller had a single neutral feedback that did NOT show up on his profile at all until after I posted my negative even though it predates my transaction by months. It wouldn't have deterred me, but it was NOT there before I posted my negative. I hope I was just being paranoid because the seller seems to have a decent rep, but it still feels fishy. I guess he should be taken off the "bad" list, but I can't endorse him for the good one either.

 

Lol.. Well.. This is what maojie1990 sent me.. I already had a complaint open on PayPal and should get my refund tomorrow

 

Well at least it’s thematically accurate

 

I'm cautiously optimistic about abctoyshop123. My Quietus' (not version T) SpeedPAK tracking stopped dead at their distribution centre. I asked the seller about it, he looked into it and says customs blocked the shipment. That's a new one... And now he's sending a replacement throught another shipper. So he's either full of.. poop.. or the best seller I've ever dealt with. Time will tell, and I'll update when more news comes up.

 

My order of TE-01 from abctoyshop123 was stuck on shipment data received for a little over four days. Emailed them yesterday, got reply back they will check on it ,next day package was received by carrier and has departed facility. Fingers crossed  .
Also ordered FT30-A from Jiangyaoming2018_0 and Yes model Skywarp from one*day_bid, both are shipped and on the way .

 

Yeah, my abctoyshop TE order just departed the facility in Shanghai yesterday so I think It's leaving China now

 

My abctoyshop TE-01 tracking update from earlier today is "Export customs declaration completed." It departed the Regional Distribution Center yesterday. Anyone from the abctoyshop gang, let us know when you receive your TE-01 or whatever you ordered recently. I hope everyone gets what they ordered, or their money back quickly enough so that they can reorder from legit shops before the reissue sells out. I already have a TE-01, but love it so much that I wanna double up.

 

I went ahead and ordered another from Show Z, just in case this turns out to be a dud.
