    PREORDER NOW! [iminime] The Deadly Vipers - The Angry Bride, The Yakuza Queen

    I've now reordered, but I am wondering what's the correct address to send via PayPal. The e-mail says to send payment to [email protected] but the order says [email protected]. Which is correct?

    { Roman General } ACI Toys 1/6 Warriors ACI08 *Anniversary Product*2012 Coming

    I've already contacted the seller so hopefully they can get the missing part from ACI, without having me ship the entire set back to hk. If not, I'll have to wait for the missing part to be available on ebay, which could take some time.

    { Roman General } ACI Toys 1/6 Warriors ACI08 *Anniversary Product*2012 Coming

    I got my figure today from toyshomeb2. The figure is great, in spite of all the small flaws (which are already reported in this thread). Unfortunately, my set was missing one of the leg armors: The box was sealed, and in otherwise good condition, so this seems to be an error from the...

    I've spent HOW MUCH on my collection?!?!?!

    Let's see...I started collecting 1/6 figures in late January with the main focus being accurate representations of iconic movie characters. So far I got 34 Hot Toys figures, 5 enterbay figures and 5 figures from other brands. The total sum so far, is close to $13.000. That sum includes...

    www.hottoysonlinestore.com is a scam (Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit?)

    Yes, I signed for the documents, filed a claim, and still got my money back. Signing for the parcel is only a problem if the seller contests your claim, and is able to provide proof that the items were shipped in perfect condition. Let's say the contents were damaged or stolen in transit. In...

    www.hottoysonlinestore.com is a scam (Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit?)

    The deadline for the seller to respond to my claim, passed today. I didn't have to call PayPal, but I did send them a message with further details of the scam. I never heard back from them, but the payment was reversed anyway. I think the reversal is automatic if the seller don't dispute your...

    www.hottoysonlinestore.com is a scam (Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit?)

    My payment to Peter was reversed today, so I got my $1500 back. I even got to keep the documents :D I'm glad that business is over with. I've already purchased 3 of the 4 figures I never received, elsewhere, albeit at significantly higher prices.

    www.hottoysonlinestore.com is a scam (Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit?)

    Re: Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit? Well about a month ago, $400-$500 was the market price for a MIB dx01 and dx02. I placed several bids at that price on eBay, but managed to get outbid in the last second. There were even other online shops that had the DX01 in stock for $499. The HTOS...

    www.hottoysonlinestore.com is a scam (Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit?)

    Re: Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit? New collectors are not automatically aware of this "fact". I managed to get a couple of rare figures off some of these obscure websites not long ago, so it's certainly not impossible. The Hot Toy Online Store storefront looked more professional than 99%...

    www.hottoysonlinestore.com is a scam (Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit?)

    Re: Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit? Please inform us of these reliable places, that still have the older Hot Toys releases (dx01, dx02) in stock at acceptable prices. Paying $600+ for each figure on eBay does not count.

    www.hottoysonlinestore.com is a scam (Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit?)

    Re: Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit? Wow, there's been quite a turn of events since last I checked this forum. For what it's worth, I do believe that Dave's taken the cash and fled, screwing over Peter and the rest of the distributers. I do however also believe that Peter's Involvement in...

    www.hottoysonlinestore.com is a scam (Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit?)

    Re: Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit? File it immediately! Your large order is probably one of the scammers main targets. File it and if your lucky, PayPal will hold the transaction before it's cleared in the sellers local bank. When did you place the order...

    www.hottoysonlinestore.com is a scam (Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit?)

    Re: Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit? Yes, this applies in normal cases, such as eBay transactions where the seller disputes your claim. However, PayPal will not be able to get a dispute from this seller, as he will not be accessing his account anymore. Considering the amount of claims...

    www.hottoysonlinestore.com is a scam (Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit?)

    Re: Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit? As I've stated. PayPal has a "Significantly not as Described" policy. They cannot claim the content was lost in transit by sending an empty box as the seller classified the shipment as 'documents'. I have already contacted the HK police, and notified...

    www.hottoysonlinestore.com is a scam (Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit?)

    Re: Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit? How would it help their case in any way? I have a Paypal Invoice listing the items I've bought. I have saved all the e-mail correspondence detailing the transaction, and I have the sellers signature on an envelope marked 'toys' classified at 0.1 kg...

    www.hottoysonlinestore.com is a scam (Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit?)

    Re: Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit? This was probably done on the request of the HK police, as they are currently in the process of investigating the site and its owners. ------------------------------------------- Read my initial post regarding the scam, here File a Cyber Crime report...

    www.hottoysonlinestore.com is a scam (Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit?)

    Re: Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit? It's not really suspect at all. These people probably came here for the same reason I did; to see if the Hot Toys Online store website could be trusted, and if it is safe to place orders with them. Do a google search on "hot toys online store scam"...

    www.hottoysonlinestore.com is a scam (Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit?)

    Re: Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit? That's great! I hope other victims follow your example. If multiple people file reports on the site, it will help raise the local authorities awareness of the fact that this is large a international scamming operation, and not just a simple seller...

    www.hottoysonlinestore.com is a scam (Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit?)

    Re: Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit? I will still get my money back, even though I signed for the item. This is covered by PayPal's "Significantly not as Described"-policy; "Buy a book, receive a brick, file a claim". By actually receiving the bogus shipment, I am now in possession of...

    www.hottoysonlinestore.com is a scam (Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit?)

    Re: Unofficial Hot Toys web-shop--legit? I don't doubt that you did receive your items. Several trusted people, have had good results with them, but I believe they were waiting for the right opportunity to jump ship. I'm located in Norway btw.
