    It sort of surprises me to still keep seeing news on this same seller. We're mostly all no strangers to seeing scammers and sellers going rogue, but man, it sure seems like people bought into this seller like crazy compared to so many others that turned.

    Feedback of 1600 WAS a pretty high number:/
    Somewhat more blindsiding than others.

    Well, hopefully this will get buyers to focus on more than just a feedback number and score, but I worry it'll just cause more to avoid direct buying from China, allowing more domestic sellers to keep jacking up prices for "convenience".

    Just came by to say that my order from johosontony - Shockwave Lab SL-41 Posable Hands for Blackmamba Nitro Zeus arrived successfully within 20 days via SpeedPAK. The seller is legit tho I admit I've never experienced a tracking like this :D

    Just received my LG Overlord from
    wangs2-19, came in about two weeks. The tracking was a bit screwy, but he arrived safe and sound. Would recommend.

    I got $39.99 shipped LG Overlord from the same seller as well in recent months. Shipping was like 2.5 weeks to Oregon.

    Yep @Uncle Billy is legit. Their other Ebay store is cbyg3016.
    He even has a non-Ebay store. Transformers Uncle Billy Shop
    I've bought from them many times before, both on Ebay and their non-Ebay store.
    The only thing if the shipping box is any bigger than a flat box holding some stickers/decals or small Dr Wu accessories, that shipping box may arrive with some slight damage.

    Good to hear about your positive experience with wangs2-19.

    It arrived in a box within a bigger box filled with upholstery foam. No damage whatsoever :thumb

    I'm keeping my post updated from everyone I bought from last month.
    China Ebay Seller Check - New-comers READ FIRST POST!!

    What's interesting is that 30 days after jiangyaoming2018_0 "dropped off" my first item i bought from him it just showed it got to my state so in theory i should see what he sent on Monday. will be very interesting.
    However the 2nd item i bought from him (2 weeks after 1st purchase) he gave tracking but never showed dropped off. I'll keep ya'll updated.

    I bought a DX9 ko powerglide from 6hk666666 in November but it never showed. Just opened a case with him. I had a tracking number but like I say, it never showed up in the allotted time. I guess it may still show up but it’s not looking good. He’s agreed to credit but I would have preferred to get what I paid for.

    I bought Quakeblast from them last April and it was all fine. That's several months ago now, however.

    One negative feedback in the last year from a random new buyer is hardly cause for concern on it's own. And it was for a KO MP Shockwave, something I had to wait a good while to get a copy of from a VERY legit seller myself. No tracking updates after the first week is definitely frustrating, but also may not be cause for concern, especially given that this seller looks to have a very small operation, so may not be able to ship often. Still, if you don't see any updates after Monday night, definitely shoot them an email for updates, if they don't respond, open a case with Paypal directly.

    Hopefully that is the case there just using the slowest cheapest shipping method there is due to the low price.

    Finally got my cases against jaingyaoming and lilanqing closed out in my favor. Glad that's over with. Show-Z and Terry from know on. Didn't take me long to learn that lesson. Thanks for the help in dealing with this, definitely made things easier.

    Now if you'll excuse me, I have some negative feedback to leave, if it will do any good.


    Thanks, Jason

    This guy is trying to sell a KO as an original 1984 and lying in the description, right? optimus prime g1 1984 | eBay

    I e-mailed him and he claims "the toy is not a knockoff the box is a replacement box".

    I call bs. I'd stay away from seller jeffery9393.
