That is ****ing insane :shock: I've got a Luke X Wing carded :o

I haven't bought much this year on ebay and the majority of what I have bought has been presents or stuff for other people. Like many I'm not chasing that much stuff anymore due to collections or runs filling up and scaling down in the items/lines that are collected. The Star Wars section is...

I got mine for less than $100 from Brians Toys in the late 90s, back in the day when Brian's Toys actually had proper specials within their weekly email.

I was about to send you a link but see you beat me to it :D

Some sellers do bulk feedback leaving sessions and forget to take out the ones they wanted to leave something else for. The bad feedback is still there, only the feedback within the last 12 months now counts towards your score.

Mine went up about 260 :shock:

I paid about £20 for mine, few years ago and I don't think it was listed as a Palitoy. I've seen less 45 backs than the 65 back.

It wasn't to do with altitude or changes in air pressure. The hole was there to relieve pressure when the bubble was applied. The initial techniques used in Mexico weren't good at sealing the bubble. However, they quickly got it sorted but still continued the card stock with the holes in it...

You can insure and get tracking but the price increase is quite dramatic, they also deliver it quicker using these methods. The £46 above was for basic no insurance (apart from standard insurance) and no tracking. With tracking it is £71 or £66 :o There must be a way of doing it cheaper...

I just looked into sending something weighing 5Kg to the US but airmail small packet rates stop at 2Kg and it seems the only way that it can be sent is with Parcelforce Worldwide - even their economy rate is about £46 :shock:

The sad thing is that it would appear that less than 3 people have gone through with the non-paying bidder process. If 3 people had gone through with an NPB the account would have been shut down. It is pointless not filing the NPB as otherwise ebay keep the fees and tools like this go on...

Just before Christmas the woman in the queue in front of me at the PO was paying a customs charge for a play.com computer game from Jersey :shock: I've bought stuff from play.com and had never heard of anyone paying duty until then. You could buy anything you like for £18 anyway and it may...

Last night I was mostly drinking Abbot Ale and Cobra in the Indian and when I got home. When drinking Cobra at home I normally put it in the freezer for 30-60 minutes before drinking it 8)

£33 was probably on the cheaper side of what they can go for - I'd say an average of £37-£45 although with the bubble being yellow (most are anyway) and with the tack hole and general descrption of the card being in fair condition probably a reasonable price. I am after a 77 back R5-D4...

I guess it will depend what mood he is in.................. I was about to send in all my Palitoy ROTJ stuff, Kenner proofs, cromalin and other items but after reading what he wrote decided against it. I'm still waiting for him to request the items I photographed :roll:

Works for me anyway :mrgreen:

I wouldn't be surprised if Dave Tree is putting something together. If he doesn't post soon, just say the magic words - "Bend 'Ems are ****" and he should be along shortly :arrow: :arrow: :arrow: :arrow: :arrow: :arrow:

Providing the lunatic buyer doesn't tick the echeque box and then that can take up to 18 days - with the usual torrent of "where is my stuff" emails and neutral feedback for slow shipping from the newbie bidder :x Paybay also make the bank payment the default payment, so you have to watch...

Come to think I've had a non paying Frenchman for a corgi car a good few years ago. I lost my 100% feedback a while back due to 1 negative retaliatory feedback, I'm now at 99.9% so it makes no real difference. Losing your 100% is one of the best things that can happen as you don't get so...

Regardless of what bullshit or genuine excuses people give me I always start the non paying bidder process after 7 days of no payment - I do however make sure that I explain that the process will be stopped upon receipt of the money. Once that process has been started it tends to concentrate...
