    Well that was nice of him, I wonder if I could get at least a partial refund on the loose Prime I brought:sly2:  I'm not to concerned about it, yea it sucks but you live and learn.

    If anything.... I just want better news reporting from Transformer sites regarding these types of releases. It seems some web sites are in such a rush to post news, they don't really check their info. Not naming any names but remember the "An anonymous source has sent us a photo showing possible reissues of Deszaras, Trypticon" and it took 2 pages on tfw for someone to finally identify the photo as a early 2000 photo.

    oh well, so are you still going to buy the set or are you done completely?

    I'll be buying it from Bodharr. He says he'll be getting it in next week! Again, no news on this. I don't know how or from where. As far as I know, there are no events next week. This is all so mysterious and confusing. What is going on with this figure!???

    And I posted recently that a big way to get around this communication issue, at least on TFW, is to implement a Wikki post for every thread, similar to how slickdeals does it. Anyone can change the second post of a thread - so if there are any revelations, reveals, or news that is important throughout the thread, someone can summarize it on the second post. As an example, see this thread on slickdeals and scroll a bit down to see the wikki post. I don't want to get off topic... but now that I've seen a forum use it, I think it is imperative we implement it.

    Well, it doesn't hurt to ask so hopefully i'll get at least a partial refund on the loose Convoy I purchased since the item has already shipped.

    Luckily, mine wasnt going to ship till tomorrow, so I threw the 300 limited in his face and I promptly got a refund. Damn good seller though, I kinda feel bad for doing it but not 250 bucks bad, especially when theyre clogging up ebay.

    I offered 140 shipped for a dinged box from junkshop, he said ok and then i get another message saying he now wants 45 for shipping. Sent another msg saying I offered 140 shipped and he can throw out the box for all I care and then he declined. COnsidering the low prices bodhar is selling them for aswell as kotoys and a few other located in japan, junkshop migh have his for a while.

    Picked mine up from hydra for 145 shipped ems. I got a msg from bodhar2000 and the price is going up as he has to pay people to stand in line. Better this is going to be limited to 1000 total

    That sucks, i'm getting ignored too so it doesn't look good for me either.

    Well, its probably still better than the 250 it was originally.

    like ebay, the prices go up the last minute. I've also been following them a bit on Yahoo Japan. Although the prices have been going down, if you account for the exchange rate, fees, internal shipping and shipping to your house, it would still be comparable if not more than what Bodharr was charging.
