    And that's why I continued doing business with them after their items started arriving 1-2 months after the 7-25 days they usually guaranteed, or do other things like "mischarge" me the wrong amount on a preorder balance. It's painfully obvious they are struggling and so I would argue that's when it's the most important to have CLEAR and TIMELY communication with their established customers, so we don't think they're going to drop off the face of the Earth communication wise like so many ebay sellers do. I bought on average 5-7 transformers from them a year. So it's really disappointing that when I have my first legitimate issue with an item, they drop the ball so hard. That just tells me that I've been lucky that I hadn't had more. This, compared to BBTS, who on my VERY first purchase I received an item with quality issues. They let me return it and sent me a replacement no problem.

    All TF-Direct had to do is explain to me exactly what was going on when I asked for a simple status update on my claim, which I did every 3-4 weeks and I only followed up that often because I was never given a timetable or ETA.

    You do you, but I'm considering myself lucky that Paypal offer to eat the loss on the item (and wasn't the full price either as the original $9.95 pre payment was over 180 days). Show.z let me go ahead an open a afterorder on the parts I need so we'll see how that goes. I'm already receiving a lot more helpful customer assistance from them than I ever did TF-Direct.

    Helloo, I’m new here but I’ve been browsing these forums for a while now. I noticed this and I was wondering if mr.brian2009 is still legit? I had ordered a Tunshi Mai from him yesterday, the communication was great, but reading these messages has got me thinking abit. I hope you can help me with this!

    Anyone recently purchase from yjym-50? Feedback looks good. I’m thinking of ordering a JinBao Devy with the upgrade kit from him.

    Bought a ko g1 trailbreaker from bigbangbigbangbigbang on eBay and item arrived fast and in perfect shape. Some tolerances were a bit tight but that’s not on seller. Seller I would definitely recommend.

    I actually ordered the MP27 Ironhide KO from them last year. Came fairly quickly (about a month).

    Any experience with Dragontoys-1 on ebay? I bought FT-43 Dunerider from them on May 7th and was given a tracking number a day later, but hasn't started working yet. They shipped through Yanwen. thanks.

    Hmm I think tracking will start showing up within couple of days... You tried parcelsapp and 17track? I've had stuff shipped through yanwen and it should show up by now already

    They are also a good 30 to 40 dollars cdn cheaper from known sellers baba and Mrbrian...so not sure if that difference is enough of a warning...about 15 percent cheaper

    New here, wish I found this forum before i made my purchase but just to ease my mind, has anybody bought from seller Yiguotian? I ordered 3z optimus from him and tracking has been fine but my package is in Fontana, CA right now and i heard stories about peoples packages ending up delivered to other states because of speedpak. Thanks for the help!

    I hope you get what you ordered. The low amount of reviews coupled with the suspicious pricing on items make me highly skeptical.
