But it's on the mesh, which isn't a solid part of the bio. Unless the brown is the original color of the mesh, meaning it was dyed or something. The whole recasting process is so damn weird...

i do. if you don't, then you seriously need to find a cheaper hobby. HT figures are high-end collectibles. and if you're living from paycheck to paycheck then you're living beyond your means by collecting them. i just don't get where people's priorities are when they put themselves in debt buying toys they can't afford.

Oh man I just read from page 14 to here. My eyes are too tired for me to even leave a proper response. I hope you guys work things out. But for anyone that's gonna spend that much money on a fig, a bit of research would have helped point out that that bio is a recast and not the original.

Ok guys let's give them some room to breathe here.
Mistakes happen, so do lapses in judgement.
What matters is the willingness to learn from them and make amends when they happen.
@ PVA. I'm glad you're doing what you can to correct the misunderstanding.
You might want to explore a fig swap with ash to put the matter to rest.
Good luck to both. Let's keep things positive as much as possible

After reading most of what's going on I have to say something. AVP bought the Celtic from me. And this not NO ILL WILL toward him because he is a good guy. Maybe he got caught up in selling, buying, selling and then buying again. We all saw his threads on that. I think he just got caught up on trying to have EVERYTHING. And couldn't stick to one thing. And if you have the money for that more power to you, but if you don't why risk buying a $450 figure. I've been there and done that. And thanks to my terminator bro(ENDO-HUNTER) showed me to stick to 1 or 2 collections and stick with it. I too wanted EVERY Hot Toy figure that came out but they're getting more and more expensive with each Pred. Now...back to the Celtic. I sold it to him without the box. He might have bought one somewhere else. I sold mine for $25 here. The Mask I sold was the original. The eyes were painted silver by SilentSurfer and had the Alien claw marks on it. He then took off the claw marks and it looked brand new. I remember because were going to see the Friday the 13Th remake and I couldn't get a baby sitter.
Anyways....he got sold with the stand, his star, long blades, extra hands, but No spear and No box. Here are some pics. *WARNING PIC HEAVY*
That's him in the back ground:

I still think AVP is a GOOD guy. And for what it's worth I'm selling some of my stuff to help him out. Maybe they can return the figure, and then workout a reasonable payment plan.

Woah woah woah stop there Juan. You're a great guy and from what I see the bio you sold him is nothing like the one he sold ashkanls. NOTHING! That is obviously an original HT bio you got there with silver lenses painted by Surfer. (I myself has done the same thing and it looks fantastic.) But take a look at the picture that ash posted. It looks nothing like the bio you sold to PvA. And PvA is blaming it on the person that sold it to him. I seriously thought it really was a misunderstanding even up to now but I'm starting to really feel doubts here.
Can you darthjuan007, confirm that THIS is the bio you sold to PvA? Because this is what he's saying you sold to him.
Sure as hell doesn't look like it.

Heres the deal, Im combining 10 pages into a few paragraphs. This is all intended for PVA but our peers are welcome to know everything.
I have a good amount of money saved so I can buy these $500 figures if I choose to and pay my car payment and everything else I do and still save. If you have 5 of these figures PVA and cant refund my money then you shouldnt be collecting these. Stick to $10 Neca figs.
PVA Sueing you in court doesnt require me to spend more then $35 and a trip to where you live. By the way when you win the case (me), the loser (you), has to pay the court fee and possibly if Im lucky me missing work and traveling charges. I run the family business so I work 7 days a week.
PVA you feedback on here can suck it. I have 1715 feedback on ebay so what if you have 29 positives here. Fact is any given sale can cause me to have 1 negative! When something goes wrong I refund the money or send something else to make the buyer happy.
I believe from everything I have seen from you, you are 16 yrs old which means I have to drag your mommy to court
Im sure she will happy that this is all over a toy. 
I have won a lawsuit before and collected an additional $1500 for my time when the printer didnt print what I wanted the way I wanted.
I have 30 days to go to my Bank and tell them you jacked me. What they do then is give me back the $$$ and go after paypal which in turn will come after your mom since the paypal account is set under your mother dearest. Im giving you 2 weeks to pay me back! Then I will send the figure back to you. If you cant get that money I suggest you send me another figure to help make up for this one. We can negotiate a deal but you have until Sunday night to responed to this message.

Im looking at the mask rite now. Its very soft and flexable. The screen over the eyes is actually gold on the inside of the mask and the outside was painted silver (dry brushed). On the inside they is exsesive paint that ran down. Hell ill put up a pic.

C'mon AVP don't blame this on me. i hooked you up with one of the most wanted Preds out there for less than what you sold it for.
@Rain: No my friend...THAT is not the bio I sent AVP. As you can see in all the pics that is the O.G Celtic bio that came from HT. I have more pics I can dig up....AVP.

WHAT DA EFF?!?! That is NOT a HT original The HT original is semi glossy black in the inside just like how a lot of other HT Pred bios look like. If you've seen the inside of the P1 bio, you know what I mean.

OK! Re-reading PvA's quote, he does not mention that the bio was sold by darthjuan. He simply states the seller of the bio mask. BUT! My question is, if you've had the original in your position at one time when darthjuan had sold it to you, how can you not tell that is it a recast? And where the heck is the original bio that darthjuan had sold with the Celtic have gone to?
Takes a lot of analyzing but my conclusion thus far is that darthjuan007 is NOT at fault in anyway given the evidence that has been shown and by the reputation that darthjuan007 has achieved on these forums.
You can keep your stuff now bro.

Im out $420.... Kind of. I have something for the money atleast. How old is he (in your opinion atleast)?

Well nothing else is wrong with the figure right? If you can get some money back and get the stand and spear, it is still a great figure. The hard part is getting an original Celtic Bio. That's nearly impossible but a lot of recasts are almost as good as the original now with the same type of lenses and everything. Your call. You can still come out good on this.

As you can see the scratches on my bio and the lens I sold him are WAY different on the one that he tried to sell.

Oh yea dude. And you can obviously tell the brown/tan details that yours is an original. Any owner of the HT Celtic can tell you that. Because we've all spent hours staring at that beauty.

What would work best since he is broke is to sell me another figure for like a $100-150 cause the Celtic to me is worth maybe $200 the way it is to me. I see he has a p1( I have 2 currently), p2, elder, 2 wolfs (pass)............. Its on him to pay me, sell me something else that is top notch, face me in court with his mom, or have Chase deal with it..... For the headache and time he has cause I would rather not just get a refund.
