Great! You'll love him!

And now, something completely off topic..




So I have two HT Preds on eBay.. Says ships to the United States in my shipping info thingy, and in my description I have "I do NOT ship outside of the US."

I just checked, a bid on each.. One from Mexico, one from Indonesia.

Am I missing something... Or are these guys just complete idiots?

Idiots. What Predators?

I absolutely hate every predator movie that was made after 1987, but I have to admit that Berserker predator has something special that makes me want to buy him.

I think it's the great looking face [both in the movie and figurine].

Yeah it's kind of sad there's really only is one great Predator movie really. I didn't care for this new one much and I remember most of us at work didn't feel good about the Predators designs when we were shown and then had to sculpt and paint them. I was busy on P1 at the time and didn't want much to do with these new guys. I think they did turn out looking good in the movie and these HT figures came out great. I love the body and paint work so much. Some of the details are off just a bit but all in all it doesn't matter when you have these in hand. They feel and look like 200 dollars well spent. Tracker I think is the best one and funny thing is I thought his design was the worst looking at him behind the scenes. This is a great figure and I'm looking forward to the Classic and all future HT Predators. These new guys blow away the older HT Predators even though some articulation is gone. I'd love to see some of our NECA stuff get this high end treatment.

I think if you state in the shipping option US only, when you create the auction, then they can't place bids on it. Not sure where or how, as haven't sold anything on ebay in years, but read it somewhere on the forum.

Well, there is a thingy in the shipping info where I choose where I ship to, I have US selected..

But obviously that doesn't stop people from bidding on it.

Damn Humans..

I know what you mean...some folks don't read the descriptions...

You know, I wonder if when someone from a different country wins them, pays, and I don't send them I get to keep the cash.. Wouldn't that be wonderful?

There are a lot of buyers outside of the usa. Most of my buyers are from other countries. It is risky shipping international make sure if you do follow the direction for seller policy protection. Always ship with tracking , I learned the hard way, the buyer says he never got it.

 

[ExMem-LarjaThwei]

^ Everytime I try sending something through eBay to someone not in the US, there are problems.. And since eBay bends over for the buyers, and makes the sellers bend over for them, imo it's better to just not deal with international shipping..

 

[sprig0701]

But that does come in handy once in a while. I bought something fairly cheap, and the seller sends me a cancel transaction notice, and I deny it. He sends me a message flipping out, saying he messed up and doesn't have the figure, so I reply back calling his bluff and just wait a few days. Like 2 days later he puts the exact same figure up for sale with a buy-it-now price for twice of what I won it at. So, I leave the idiot negative feedback. So, since he can't spite me with a negative feedback, he leaves me a positive with a negative comment

So anyway, I send him a message laughing at him, and he replies back that he is reporting me to eBay. He did. I get a nasty gram from eBay saying harassment type messages are not tolerated, and next time will result in a possible suspension or banning. Soooooooo, I reply back with the item # of what I won, the messages he sent me and the item # of the figure being put back up. Needless to say, that moron is no longer a member on eBay (well just at least not under that name anymore).

But all-in-all, eBay sucks with their fees, and if it gets to the point that I have to sell anything then it will most likely be on here.

Checked my parents' e-mail account for the first time in forever and discovered Tracker has been in-stock at RE for the last week and a half. At least I found out today and not later.

Guess I'll have my Tracker some time next week then, which still gives me plenty of time during the summer to enjoy him. Can't wait to complete the trio! Plus with the Ex. Classic PO'd, that future all-Predator detolf will be packed!

Hopefully all before Christmas too.

tracker is a shelf diver. that suicidal SOB. luckily there was minimal damage, his blade broke the fall. snapping that crap metal at the point that inserts into his arm of course, once i tweeze the little piece out ill be in the market for one of the longest blades.

 

[a-dev]

I think stands are your friend. Just too risky without. Sorry to hear it though.

yeah, maybe, i think stands look like crap though, and you lose all the realism that were obv. going for.

 

[robbiethepainter]

All the new body predators are divers. That's the down side to having all that heavy plastic. My falconer has taken the plunge a lot.

 

[a-dev]

If its happening repeatedly surely you should use the stands then at least. I just don't get it. I'd much rather sacrifice the aesthetics of my display than have my figures falling over constantly and either breaking or taking on paint scratches.

 

[sprig0701]

Really. How many chances do you have to take with your $200 figures taking the fatal plunge before breaking down and use the included stand that prevents that from happening? We're not talking about $20 McF figures with no included stands.

But hey, if you want to send me that $200 I could put it to better use. I'll send you pics of the figures on my shelf that I buy with it ..... on the stands.
