Hi I'm selling a MOC Prerub Rumble & Ravage. Transformers Rumble & Ravage Prerub MOC AFA 80 - eBay (item 230502276416 end time Aug-01-10 07:30:30 PDT)
Good luck selling it. With the sheer number of fakes on the market and AFA's propensity for grading fake items, it's gonna be a tough sell. *I'm in no way insinuating your item is not the genuine artlcle.
Last time I checked, there were only 3 AFA 80 Pre Rub R/Rs. These are truly a rare item that any Pre Rub collector would want. I've been looking for an AFA 85 Pre Rub R/R for 2 years!
Yeah your so right Pre rub G1 Rumble and Ravages are everywhere, and unwanted by Transformer collectors.
Sarcasm is only effective when responding to actual statements. I said it would be a difficult sale due to the volume of fakes on the market and their impact on collectors. AFA is no guarantee of authenticity. Good luck reselling it.
Of course it is, you idiot. And as the King of Prerubs says there arn't many AFA'd prerub Rumble & Ravages. If K.O'd ones had been got through the AFA grading system there would be loads of them.
OK Mr. 17 posts, I was trying to be polite but apparently you don't know how to return the favor. Here's a link to an AFA graded knock off Beachcomber. On Ebay: Knockoff Beachcomber AFA-graded as original | HIGHENDTFS.COM In addition, recent ebay auctions have appeared with faked AFA stickers. Search for yourself as I don't really have the time or patience to look for it. Bottom line? You didn't sell it at the price you asked for much less 'for a good amount'. I still maintain the fact that it is a difficult sell so please keep listing so can watch it not sell again.
Yeah, that is gonna be a tough sell. I think $470 is tough to swallow for a possible fake. Plus it would help if you had better pictures. Those pictures are just awful. For that price, they need to be closer in order to show more detail. Heck, highlight the AFA tag more.
