    Because of all this I jumped on a THF Ultra Magnus from a U.S. seller last week. Paid maybe 20 more than I would have from a Chinese seller, but it was worth the piece of mind.

    Not ebay related, but has anyone ordered from Best Wei Jiang on Amazon before? Their feedback looks pretty good and with ebay sources for KO's now drying up, they have a couple that I'm thinking of jumping on.

    one*day_bid has posted my Jinbao Devvy... updates will follow :D 

    It's strange how the stickers they posted two days ago are still not showing on the tracking system, but this package is on there immediately o_O

    No idea, but some people who had bought from liujunling87_5 received an email from ebay about the hacked account... I haven't bought from them for a while, but had several times in the past, so was quite dismayed to hear they may have gone to the scam side :(

    I have to wonder if taxing and the lack of ebay sales has reduced sales so much that ebay is no longer worth it to them anymore. This would explain why the good sellers are going rogue. They are milking it for what they can and then bailing.

    Don't think USA has that much influence on sellers. That's like saying USA buyers are the reason. Going rogue is a giving up problem in China.

    Maucat has dropped prices even more. I’m concerned for what I’ve ordered to say the least.

    Arrived in the UK! :D 

    So hopefully I'll have a lovely big Devastator sometime early next week, and hopefully not some beads or Lego :rolleyes: 

    Stickers would be good though, seeing as they've shown no sign of movement, but as long as they come with the Constructicons and not on their own :p

    I think zhiguang1987ok2 can go on the bad sellers list (if he’s not on there already).

    Bought an X-transbots Arkose from him on the 22nd of October, and a tracking number was provided on the 24th. After a few days of non activity I contacted Speedpak and was told that seller had yet to provide the item...this was now the 29th of October. Contacted the seller and was told (the next day) that the courier had failed to deliver the item to the shipping company, and that they would sort it out immediately. That was 3 days ago and the item STILL isn’t with Speedpak.

    I emailed the seller this morning and asked him to cancel the order and refund my money, we’ll see what happens.

    Today I received a flat yellow packet, on the label it states '1 anime figure'...

    With trepidation I open it and find some stickers (or probably more correctly, some decals :p )...

    yay.jpeg

    So that's one order from one*day_bid here :D 

    My Jinbao Devvy is apparently at the local Parcelforce depot, but as they don't deliver on Saturday (unless it's especially paid for) I don't think I'll be getting it till Monday :rolleyes:

    6hk666666 came through. The MPP-10 is excellent. I'm really happy and shipping was fast. The other tracking numbers are registering as well. 1 down, 3 more to go...

    Just to bring this to a close... Ebay seller: liujunling87_5 is a confirmed scammer. I received my refund from PP today. The seller never responded to my PP claim nor to my messages to him thru Ebay, even after his "hacked" account was "supposedly" restored to his control. Complete BS Sh!t Show Liar! Avoid, avoid, avoid. I paid and never received anything. Some item was shipped (probably a piece of lego), but the China Post tracking number bounced around the USA for a month, then became undeliverable due to a wrong shipping address. Scammer.

    Did you have to phone PayPal again to get the money back?
    I also have money waiting to come back to me via 2 open PayPal cases from this seller.
