I just find it shady that he said "I could of asked" which leads me to believe he was well of aware of this and didn't include it in the description. I went into it based on his feedback and the description. The box definitely didn't look like it's been sitting in the shipper for years and years.

He's been a real prick to me with the back and forth messages as well. I wasn't about to leave feedback and I'm left up ****'s creek. He was worried about getting a negative and I said I don't care enough about him to go out of my way to do that after you just gave me the money back.

I've been selling on there 10 years and every little nuance or issue with my stuff I always put it in the listing to insulate myself from stuff like this.

EDIT: He also relisted it and didn't describe the tape detail yet again, which again leads me to believe he's just trying to get over on a unaware buyer. I've been going through hell buying up these old Resident Evil figures with replacing parts and stuff and I wasn't about to chance getting another probable used one and it's got problems with it. I took it out, looked at it and sealed it back up in the shipper.

If he turns out to do the right thing I won't throw him under the bus. But he wants to stall it out until eBay gets involved just to **** with me.

In the description of it I checked again and he updated it after calling him out on it to "opened for inspection to check contents." Take that as you will, that can either mean he means he opened the shipper to look at it or the actual box of the figure. Stupid vagueness.
 
"You could've asked" is the crappiest excuse, ever. He should've listed it as a "New but opened figure" with a description (although, if you buy a figure with an opened box, assume it has been used :lecture). I once had a problem with a Medicom Snake figure in 2009, and the seller was asking me to leave positive feedback before initiating a return. Don't ever do that. Like EVILFACE said, Ebay will see your feedback and assume that the transaction went smoothly.

I have had good experiences with buying HT from people over the years. Even recently. All of which aside from one were out of the shipper, but were clear as day brand new.

I did have one issue where I bought the Tech Noir Terminator from a eBay seller and the neck peg crumbled upon messing with it. It was listed as used IIRC, but the guy couldn't of been more understanding about it and took it back. I think the guy never did any kinda posing with it and was unaware about it.

I'm fully aware of how eBay works and I'll more than likely get my money back, but at the same time I'm also a seller here and there and I try to be as concise and clear with all my listings.
 
I respect that, and at the same time I hate it. Although, I never sold on there.

But then again, A LOT of stuff I ordered new comes double taped or damaged from "Amazon Fulfillment."
 
I guess something I've grown to hate over the years, is when comedy shows take famous rock ballads and turn them into something of a parody. South Park, Family Guy and The Simpsons do it all the time. Commercials do it all the time, too.

It does help to reintroduce older songs for younger generations who haven't heard them before. But, I think the way that songs are presented in comedy, effectively ruins the image of them. It's especially annoying to see YouTube comments like, "Family Guy brought me here", "Cartman's special Olympics brought me here". **** that.
 
Sideshow strikes again... and again... and again...

They never learn. Must be a genetic defect or something.
 
I hate that on the fourth day of my week long vacation in Hawaii, I scrape the side of my rental car on another car's bumper pulling into one of those angled parking spots.

This is my first "accident" in 20 years. :slap
 
Cosplayers.

People don't need to see an overweight version of their favorite characters in skin tight spandex. Leave the conventions to people who like comics.

I really hate the whoresplay level ******* that do only slutty versions of whatever they're outfit is based on. Jessica Nigri for example.

You mean FAT, overweight cosplayers? Or cosplayers in general?

It's hard to decipher what you are trying to say.

Both, although the hot ones are easier to understand. It's just so odd to me to go walk around like its Halloween
