I still can't believe this is still being discussed...

I brought my purchase to the thread and didn't know I got it from Kara. The matter has been resolved, end of discussion on it.

You: Self-entitled whiney-pants newb who thinks that others should compensate for your laziness and ignorance.

Karamazov: Widely respected and mature established member who is now out of pocket for appeasing a ****** of a buyer who thinks the rules don't apply to them.

That's why this is still being discussed. It undermines any reasonable-thinking person's sense of fairness, and you're so thick you can't see it.

My experiences selling my EtD Bruce is what has dissuaded me from ever selling on ebay again as well as ever selling anything internationally again.

Kara went far above and beyond what he needed to do as a seller.

Why don't you just date him dude.

Why don't you just date him dude.

Date with me: We agree on a restaurant and have a nice bite to eat, a couple of drinks and split the bill. The conversation is entertaining and sometimes enlightening.

Date with you: You agree on a restaurant, order a five-course meal and some expensive red - then you whine about the the croutons not being crunchy enough so you do a runner on the entire bill. The conversation 'til that point consisted mainly of your grunts and farts.

I appreciate the support Lejuan but this really is just a difference of opinion that, as Snake says, has been settled. Probably best if we just move on and allow for conversations about the figure itself and not a spat over an eBay sale.

I should say however that I've had a really rough string of eBay sales recently that is pushing me more and more toward Pixletwin's way of thinking for different reasons. Unfortunately, I can't afford more figures without selling my older ones, but I'm feeling anxiety whenever I list something for sale considering that you just don't know what to expect.

I just think you've had a lot of bad experiences with men and haven't met the right one yet

I think this is an unfortunate consequence of the expansion of the 1/6 market, with novice buyers failing to educate themselves about commerce protocols as well as the products they're buying. I won't sell anything on ebay anymore. Unfortunately for me that means I now have some pretty decent figures boxed up and taking up space in the cupboard that I could reasonably get some good money for. I won't even deal on this board, unless it's a member I've come to know through thread discussion. This erosion of confidence in online commerce is a real shame - as you say, many rely on a smooth system to be able to finance other buys. With so many deciding they don't want to play nice, it makes servicing this hobby that much harder.

can some1 help me with some info. Will the ht ttm17/bruce lee body accept the foot pegs of the other truetype bodies (example ttm19) and will the ttm19 feet fit in the dx bruce lee slippers. i want to buy a body on ebay without feet and pegs and just use the cheaper ttm19 feet and pegs.
Thanx.

 

[mrchris]

the feet off a ttl body i picked up fitted my dx body ok and a pair of EB kung fu slippers. so the ttm feet should be ok

Yes, they're compatible on both counts. I initially got sent a pair of TT-clone feet instead of the real deal - the balls were slightly too small, making the ankles too loose. Then I found a spare pair of genuine TT feet laying about, so used them and they were fine.

[6joker9]

thanx guys.

 

[GungFu]

I wonder when Shadowfla will learn how to display his figure properly....

You need to separate them into more than just one stash display. Some of the poses are okay, but you need to make it work and not just stash them together.......

I still find it mildly amusing that we're still here talking about DX04 when HT are on DX11 and they're not doing Bruce anymore.

Enterbay are where Bruce is at and I'm interested in seeing pics of the Black Label statfig or whatever it is.

I was considering getting the 3rd GOD but heard too many issues with it. I wonder what EB has cooked up.

 

[Rogerbee]

Not sure right now, my thread notifications went AWOL till today and I'm not sure what the latest intel is.

FB has been quiet on the Bruce front that's for sure
