    Last week? Was Monday dude. Anyway he's been dodgy for a while from what I have seen his feedback wasn't great when I ordered but I took the chance since he was on the good list and got lucky but a whole month to get it was mental 15 days had been the worst I'd ever had before that lol

    Wainting on wanglansuo8 and chao7623 atm, Ordered Oct 15/17th respective

    Purchased through my CC via Ebay not paypal. So I assume eBay will deregister the user if they are fraudulent and refund me? I sent them both an email asking for an update, afterwards I'll contact Customer Service.

    Yeah postage for me hasn't been that great ordered items from tfdirect (took 6weeks) and terryfts (took 4weeks), even ordered the wj sword for the ko predaking from faithtotalk on ebay took 8weeks, I even opened up a case against him and everything since tracking stopped on 20th August but eventually got it 17th October and just closed the case, so he's still good to go.

    I've noticed that maucat_2 has XTB G2 Deathwish for $60 shipped which is about $15-$20 cheaper than @bababobo00712's price
    X-Transbots MX-15G2 Deathwish G2 Ver Dead End Transformers toy | eBay

    I've also noticed that maucat_2 is using the slow to ship/slow to update SpeedPAK as the shipping method.
    All of their feedback is positive yet they are listed as private. Even though I want this figure I'm not sure it is worth the gamble from this seller.

    Anyone heard anything from liujunling87_5?
    He hasn't responded to the PayPal claim for any of the items that weren't sent attached to a fake tracking number. Sigh.

    I don't know man... Maucats_2 prices used to be fairly consistent with a few good deals... looking at the site now, it looks like a lot is marked down and I see that “FT mercenary” that goes for $165.00+ on Babas site going for the $106.99 on maucats... every Mercenary I have seen, that has been listed below $128.00 for the last 2 months, seems to be bait where all the sellers that have it go rogue. His Tyrant, Jabber and spoiler for $89.00 seems too good to be true in my opinion.

    He has been put on the Bad Sellers list. Scammer.

    But if you read back a bit you'll see that people have had emails from ebay regarding liujunling87_5 stating that the seller's account was hacked...

    Good catch on FT Mercenary. I think I'll simply avoid maucat_2 and let the inevitable negative feedback start rolling in and confirm my hunches.
