    Thanks for this list. I ordered a Megatron from netclow. Sent that shop and "baba" an inquiring message but only netclow followed up. Hopefully it turns out well.

    Netclow is good. In fact I recently ordered two MMC Ocular Max figs from him and I received them in only 1 week! I've used him a lot, especially for Iron Factory as he usually has the best price for those.

    No. I did not have to call a second time. Just received my refund and an email stating PP closed the claim in my favor after never hearing back from liujunling87_5.

    I was ready to call again if I did not receive my refund after the initial claim period was over. How Ebay allows sellers or I should say scammers like this to keep their accounts open... is prosecutable negligence. Ebay is aware of what is going on now, and is doing nothing to stop it or to protect future buyers.

    Ordered on the 28th, posted on the 30th, arrived in the UK on the 1st, and if it hadn't been a Saturday I'd probably have got it on the 2nd!

    But anyway, a very large package arrived today!

    Containing three boxes taped together with the now famous yellow tape!

    IMG_6496.jpeg

    Boxes which contained these goodies! :D

    IMG_6499.jpeg

    I saved £11 by going for the 'no box' option, I don't keep the boxes anymore anyway.

    So one*day_bid is still legit, and also now holds the record for quickest delivery to the UK from China (at least in my experience) :cool: 

    The only problem I have now is to decide if they stay in combined mode, which looks great, or individual mode, which also looks great! :p 


    P.S. I like the artwork on the instructions... the actual instructions not so much :rolleyes:

    Good haul. I can see why @Craigmcgowan1984 speaks highly of one*day_bid.

    I was so impressed that I convinced one of my friends after the same set to buy from them! :cool: 

    And I'm considering getting the Jinbao OS Bruticus from them too :D

    Anyone got an update on @ggz437 recently? They got some good prices on some FT stuff but similar pricing on multiple things.

    e.g. 91.99$ for three different items.

    it's been a while since I ordered anything from them good to see they are still legit, and that is one hell of a quick delivery, was your jinbao totally complete?m had missing pieces but one*day_bid got all missing pieces sent to me a month later after contacting factory. Now he's all upgraded with knee extensions and drills, I could do with stinger shoulder ratchets though they've loosened over time, still very posable though IMG_20191107_121317.jpg

    Yep, totally complete and sealed tight (so no dodgy second-hand stuff that I'd been warned about).

    And damn, those combiner ratchets are tight!!! :eek:

    Ebay:
    ciao, compro dall'Italia.
    L'ho comprato l'anno scorso da netclow , TFC Hades e poi TFC Road Caesar, uno per uno, e non ho mai avuto problemi, invia per $ 1 e i suoi pacchi sono timbrati con Poste Olandesi e arrivo in circa 20 giorni senza passare la dogana e senza costi aggiuntivi.
    il mese scorso ho comprato da chlifg1008_8 e il pacchetto devi arrivare entro il 13.11 ma il numero di tracciamento è inesistente e dopo il mio acquisto, il 15.09, su ebay in molti hanno lasciato feedback negativi e arrabbiati e lui non risponde.
    Inoltre ahbj1981-9 non risponde al messaggio dopo l'ultimo mese in cui ho acquistato un trasformatore: il pacchetto è stato perso o è tornato dal centro di smistamento cinese. Ha detto che me l'ha rispedito, ma non ho più avuto sue notizie.
    Ho visto che molti venditori cinesi dall'estate hanno iniziato a ricevere molti feedback negativi, soprattutto a ottobre, a causa della festa nazionale della Cina, l'ufficio postale è chiuso da una settimana ... mistero !!!

    conosci jinwen1212 ? hai comprato da lui?

    Never mind those, you could do with better shelving! I mean, really, who'd display their Transformers on those things?! :rolleyes:

    So, something strange is happening with the tracking on my order from 8hk4428 on eBay.

    On the the 27th of Oct it said the item had left overseas but then on the 3rd of Nov it said again the item had left overseas, then on the 6th it says the item is still in Beijing? I hope this is not a bad sign, I'm already dealing with a rouge seller as it is, don't want another one.

    I would check every day now maybe twice. Return to sender and departed to be destroyed are options now.
