I wonder does flippers continue to purchase the statues even if no one buys them before the flippers get charge? I can simply say that they are "opportunist" they log on get the T # and try to get their money with a profit before they get the item/statue.

Sadly, no. Quite a few people are getting just the PO's, and cancel before the charge if it dosen't sell on eBay. This is why SS should implement fees, so this practice dies off the the ES of these pieces hold their values.

I disagree. Sideshow should simply investigate all ebay auctions and simply cancel all of those seller's orders. A simple way would just be for sideshow themselves to buy the items, and thus get the seller's name and such, and then cancel that person's order. Thus, that person would not ever get the item, and so would have to cancel the transaction, because they won't ever get the item in the first place. Remember, Sideshow reserves the right not to sell to anyone. If someone would rather have money than a statue, then They should simply KEEP their money in the first place.,there is no reason for them to even buy the statue at all. I guess they simply want a free hand out. Money for nothing. n Rant over.

Yeeeeeaaaaaaaa. I am going to have to disagree with you here. I am not a flipper and even I think this is ridonkulous. What does Sideshow care if people sell them for profit? They just want their initial money upfront. The percentage of flippers to regular customers is small enough that they probably wouldn't see a difference to those flippers who cancel vs regular people who cancel.

Plus that is all sorts of shadiness.

If anything you should be HAPPY people do this because it potentially drives up the ES which can give you a better chance of getting an item, especially if they do cancel because they didn't sell it you now have a chance to for your WL to convert.

Going to have to +1 this one...
 
Sideshow is out for Sideshow and of course they will take care of you if you buy from them. I think that's the line though.
 
sideshow can take care of spammers and recasters,not flippers imo.

In most cases they really don't care about the secondary market we create. It is probably hard as hell for them to even think about which piece will draw a higher demand later. Even having a low es doesn't mean it won't be hard to find later for either the same price or sometimes cheaper and sometimes very HIGH es items demand a HUGE price later.

Haha I know. I didn't mean to make you an outcast. I was just talking from the pure perspective of 100% flippers or those who flip and only keep a very small amount for themselves. I bet in most cases those are the ebayers. Not all obviously but a majority, I could be wrong though. :)

i dont care about flippers as long as i am in front of my computer at the nls and the ppos...:peace:peace
