View Full Version : Wow! Is this guy for real?!

Look for "thisweeksitems" on eBay. This seller has 20 REV sets of Iron Man, Executioner, etc... currently listed.

Either he's the reason why no one could get the Armor Wars figs they wanted - he must have purchased half the cases in wave 1 - or he is trying to set someone up...

Does anyone know about him?

That is quite interesting. You may want to contact him or some people that have gotten items from him before and question it. It does seem a lil fishy, and it never hurts to ask a simple enough question.

Thats the most ridiculous thing Ive seen concerning heroclix on ebay in quite some time. There must be a mistake.

Looks to be a collectibles store, probably just opened a #### ton of cases. Looks legit to me, there's easier ways to scam than this if it was one.

I would think some higher profile pieces would be in order if a scam was really going to go down.

I was thinking that maybe someone hijacked the guy's eBay logon and is trying to pull a quick one without really knowing about the actual rarity of the Armor Wars clix.

Something that bothers me is that he's got exactly 20 of each REVs. I've opened 2 cases myself and didn't get an exact pull like that; at all. I figure he would have had to open up something like 25-30 cases to get so many sets of those hard to get nons.

And why not sell them as complete sets? And why list them all at once, "cannibalizing" (sp?) your own auctions?

More likely to have people pay smaller ammounts for select things they need than larger ammounts for stuff they may or may not need and/or want.

Maybe 20 was the number the group (I'll assume it's a store) was going for and they opened till they got it.

wes_man21
01/02/2006, 23:14
Still why sell 20 at the same time, the prices will all level out. Those auctions will show the true demand for those figures. He had to open around 35-40 cases to get all of those Vets, 20 Vet War Machines and 20 Vet Iron Mans, come on.

Cause these places operate by hitting on the newest thing and moving on, they don't want stock sitting around. They want to get it in, and get it right the heck out and make what profit they can.

Not the greatest business plan ever, but an effective one if you can stay ahead of the curve.

I hope he's fer-real, I just bought 3 rev sets from him before seeing this post. Yeesh, I was wondering why all the rev sets that were barely posted today were getting taken so quickly, now I know: his name showed up on this forum.

TechLee
01/03/2006, 11:52
Eh, I'm testing the waters also, but I wish he had a BIN option. :p I hate waiting 6 days to see if I win a bid.

I may drop a bid or two on the REV sets tonight. I'm not particularly afraid of getting scammed as PayPal offers pretty good protection.

That reminds me of the time when that one guy was selling fake clix...

Very suspicious. But then he could just have gotten 12 cases and go really lucky. :confused:

01/08/2006, 12:14
i just saw the same listings on EBAy and thought i would cruise the realms and see if anybody here has any knowledge of this seller. exactly 20 REV's of each??
Please let us know when you get your figs.

I won an REV War Machine set from this guy (last figure I need is V War Machine) and that was just about a week ago. If/when I get my figs I'll definitely post it here.

bigkahuna83
01/18/2006, 15:50
well now he has 10 of each unique from xplosion and ultimates as well as 20 REV's from those sets. The fact that he has EXACTLY the same number of everything make me scratch my head.......

TechLee
01/18/2006, 15:51
Any Updates?

I bought one item from this guy.

As of today it has not arrived.

Same here, I emailed him today. Usually about 1 day turnaround on his email replies.

IronFist
01/18/2006, 15:53
I bought pretty much all the figures I wanted from AW from him, with the exception of Iron Man REV. I've exchanged 4 or 5 emails with him, and he seems legit to me. I asked how he came by so man Captain America and Iron Man REV sets, and he said he opened a whole bunch of cases to get them. Which explains the free figures that he offered with several of the auctions. He must have a ton of incomplete REV sets laying around now.

When I get my figures, I'll post here as well.

jwolfe279
01/18/2006, 15:55
I hope everything is on the up-and-up with this seller... I bought a good bit to finish off Armor Wars. I'll post if/when I get them.

Kaitouace
01/18/2006, 16:00
Checking the guy's feedback he seems to be on the up and up. Several recent positives for various Heroclix related sales. Didn't notice any Armor Wars stuff yet but things like a few LEs, and REVs from sets like Hypertime, Xplosion, Fantastic Forces, Ultimates, and Clobberin' Time. Turnaround seems to be around a week to a week in a half between the end of the auction and when the feedback is posted.

Lots of old classic toys too. Barbies, He-Man, etc. Doesn't seem to be much rhyme and reason in the stuff sold either. Toys, Heroclix, pins, etc. I wonder if this is just some big warehouse selling stuff.

ol_Dut
01/18/2006, 16:03
I picked up a few AW REVs and some other things from this guy as well, and I'm still waiting, too.

cyberdragon
01/18/2006, 17:21
Also bought from him, despite my concerns.

I received a bunch of clix today from another eBayer who had his auctions ending the next day, or just about.

I suppose these will take a bit longer to arrive due to the amount of auctions he had going at the time but I won't wait more than 30 days after the auction's end before doing something about it.

TechLee
01/18/2006, 18:32
E-mail response received, he ships in waves from how it sounds. New shipping wave should be soon.

Offered me refund if it wasn't going to be soon enough, but I'm just anxious for the figs. :D

I saw these auctions and the sheer bulk of his available REV sets scared me off, but based on his feedback and the followup for the auctions it looks pretty legit to me.

I know... I feel the same way (I really want those figs I got). Just thought I'd share what I found and let the people decide! (Thanks to bigkahuna's sarcasm :p ) Anyway, posting figs that don't exist seems a little bit fishy... I would confirm the material existence of an item before posting it on ebay.

If you have not received you items, you can file a claim after 10 days. If a bunch of us file a claim with ebay and paypal, it will send a huge red flag. Hopefully it will help us get our figs or money back, and shut this person down.

Ok So I am a crafty guy who wants to screw a bunch of people out of money. How do I do it? Well I set up about a 1000 auctions on ebay many of which are for clix people will drop big bucks on. Then I simply walk away.
The 100+feedback could be simply a smokescreen for the big score.

I bet this guy could walk out with $6,000 and what could ebay do? What are you going to file a class action lawsuit (not for 6 grand). Way too any defendants and to little money involved.
As a result I would like to let everyone know I am putting up 100 of each figure on ebay. KC (everybody), Nighcrawler, Ultimate Thor, ect... Ok so I am joking..



Am I wrong about this guy? We will know in about 1 month....

I remember a few years back that there was a PS2 Paypal scam
Anyone remember that?
The guys sold like 100-200 PS2s on Ebay the X-mas year they came out and were getting 500-600 a pop for them. They didnt even have 1 to ship. They made huge bucks on that scam. Dont recall what happened in the end now been a long time.

I sent him back the Ra's Al Ghoul in hopes that he would send me my Magneto...needless to say in a few days i got my Magneto but i was out the shipping of Ra's back to him...he said he would compensate me for the shipping but that didn't happen, i was just glad i got my Magneto...

IronFist
01/26/2006, 09:56
I bought several AW figures from the same Jan 9th auctions. I've been in contact with him several times since, and he's said that a bunch of people messed up their invoices, so he had to resend them, which delayed getting the stuff out until last Friday.

He said that he sent the last packages from the AW stuff this week. We should be getting them by Friday.

Or, our wrath will descend from the heavens, and will be terrible to behold.

One or the other. I guess we'll see.

ol_Dut
01/26/2006, 10:01
I'm getting very annoyed. To date I have nothing from this guy. I've sent three very polite emails asking for a status report and heard exactly nothing. It's been almost 20 days and I don't have any clix either. Needless to say, Ol_Dut is not happy.

Funny thing is, this seller's getting lots of positive feedback for selling clix this month, but the folks doing so were happy buyers of older stuff - Xplosion, etc. No one leaving positive feedback did so regarding Armor Wars pieces. So the good news is, if there is any, that no one is receiving any AW stuff from this guy. Yet. At least no one is being singled out, we're all taking it in the shorts together- so to speak. Maybe the big ol' box will come today? I'm not holding my breath.

The "messed up invoices" junk sounds way too much like the Neotoys debacle that I was an unfortunate participant in, so this doesn't make me feel to good. At least here I'd be out much less money if things do go completely pear-shaped.

Right now the terrible wrath thing is starting to sound pretty fun.

KC Supes isn't the rarest thing in the world. If you open enough Unleashed cases, you'll have that many. Seems that's what he did with Armor Wars.

I'm very sorry for such a late response.. We had some delays with some
of the Armor Wars shipments, but they've pretty much all gone out now
so they should be on their way. Please let me know if you don't receive
your order by Tuesday and I'll try and track down some tracking info.

I apologize for the inconvenience,

ol_Dut
01/27/2006, 10:36
After four emails, I finally got the same response that you did. I'm guessing the delay boils down to selling figures that were not in hand at the time the sale was made. I'm hoping my stuff comes today - it'd be nice to have some of those pieces for the games this weekend.

Well, the promised delivery date of this Tuesday has come and gone - nothing in the mail today, either. Over three weeks of waiting :disappoin.

This seller's email responses have, at best, been spotty and not at all helpful. Unless a miracle occurs in the next 24 hours, I shall be doing my best to cram all my negative feedback into 80 characters or less and go through the crummy PayPal dispute reoslution process. Yuck. :(

I got Sentry , Bane REV , and Hawk REV awhile back . It took awhile but I got it. I think he waits until the whole block ( like Armor Wars ) pays...and then ships them all on one day after everyone pays... so it takes awhile , but I've gotten it.

This guy is a great seller. I mentioned casually that I didn't get any bonus figs while giving positive feedback (but no big deal). He sends me an email saying he wants to send me the bonus figs anyway. It took him forever (notice a theme) but I got double the amount of bonus figs I normally would have gotten and they weren't bad bonus figs either (E HT Batman and E Mandarin among others).

Well now he is listing with his auctions that it will take forever to get your figures. So if this was written on the auction and you do eventually get your figures, then you should leave a positive.
However, if you weren't expecting it to take forever, a neutral could be justified. However, personally I would request a refund and leave a positive once I got the refund.

I too am waiting for some figs from him from a recent auction. Glad to see that many of you received your pieces. Dut, any word on your figs yet? I noticed that someone recently left a whole batch of nasty negative feedback for him. Seems like juding from these posts, he buys cases then puts up auctions for the pieces he thinks he's going to be getting, then giving people refunds when he can't come up with the figs. Not a great way to do business, but I've encountered worse on Ebay (my sole negative feedback is a vengeance feedback from sifulama...). If my uniques ever arrive from him I'll pop a note on here.

I wonder if the prices are lower for these auctions since he sells 10 or so at the same time, increasing the supply and lowering the demand.

Had a good order with him in the past but recently I got burned. Won a KC Unleashed Unique back in January...after botchings and unsents I asked for a refund 2-3 days ago , which I got. Won Fantastic Forces REVs and a Unique back in early February , and if I don't get them today I will ask for the refund on those as well.

I'm all about patience , but in both examples he could've sent it after waiting over 3 weeks and I'd still have them , but I have no package or DC # to show for it. And it would make me feel better if his # of auctions slowed down so he could obviously catch up with what he's selling but its obviously WAY more then he can handle.

At this point the + month worth of frustration waiting for figures has overcome the slightly cheaper prices that he has. From now on I'm staying away.

I just got an email from this seller saying that he would no longer be selling and people should expect their money back. I have been waiting since Friday for my refund, I hope it comes through soon or I will contact paypal.

This is terrible news! I had a huge order coming with lots of figs I was looking forward to playing. Thanks for the heads up.

Sorry to let you know, although I did just notice in the email it says he will be sending or refunding every heroclx order he has this week. So you might still get your clix. I hope you do if it is figs you really want.

I too bought a Unique Hush from him. fellow board member csi, told me he takes forever to ship. I got him on instant messenger, and asked what his turnaround time was, and he stated a little over two weeks. I mentioned that I would rather have the refund, since I was hoping for a faster delivery, took a couple of days, but my money was refunded.

csi bought an Ult Ironman from him, but received an Ult Thor from him instead. seller said he could return it, and get the ironman, or just keep the Thor. csi told him he would return the Thor, and to ship the ironman, but my pal said Thor isnt leaving his house, until Ironman shows up

seems like a guy that got a little too big for his britches

Any word from this guy? First time I ordered, I got everything no hassle... so I'm a little concerned that I haven't heard anything from him on this second order. Also, he's dissapeared from ebay. How long should I wait for an answer before contacting paypal. I'd rather just have my figures, truth be told.

I ordered multiple figures about 50 bucks worth cause of a magog in ### package in early february 2/7/2005 more specificly. This guy never sent me my package ignored most of my messages and said 2 weeks ago finnaly that I would get ### figures or a refund but 2 weeks later still no word or package and repeated emails have been ignored. I also see that he is no longer an ebay user so I can take no action against him I am screwed do not order from him ever

What about Paypal? They can give us our money back, right?

### problem with paypall is you have to file for a refund within 30 days of teh auction also if ### guy cancels his paypal account during ### investigation then they cant give a refund, I won a dark phoenix once for 100 bucks and I was ripped off, I did a paypall refund but ### guy canceled his account and I only received 13 bucks refund for this transaction out of ### hundred I spent
paypall is not reliable

Within 30 days of ### auction ending or within 30 days of paying? If it's within 30 days of paying then I got a few days... if not, I'm screwed.

I just checked, it's within 45 days of paying... which means you're still screwed, but I'm okay. Wow, that sucks about ### Dark Phoenix! Sorry to hear it.

What's his instant messenger name? I keep trying to bug him about these items, with no response.

Lunar,
I am in ### same boat. I have about $20 of figs that I have been waiting a month on. I had another $30 of figs that are awaiting payment but I was holding off till I got ### first set.
Now I find that he is no longer an autherized seller on ebay. Check out his rating which has around 150 negatives before ebay shut him down. I submitted a request through paypal for a refund but haven't heard anything yet.
I am currently trying to find this guys address and /or instant messenger name. If anybody has any info on this guy please let me know.
From what I can tell this guy was simply putting up auctions on ebay even though he didn't have ### stuff in hand. He may have intended to meet all ### orders or he may have just decieded to cut his losses and run off with our money.

I bought KC supes, despero and an REV Hal Jordan from this guy and it took him a month to ship my figs twice and I still never received them. After a couple weeks from the initial month of 'shipping' I finally got a refund. I didn't leave him negative feedback, but I was pretty pissed that I didn't get my KC Supes cuz I only paid 40 for him. Oh well, glad to know that some are having good experiences with him though
