how many of the weapons are repro ? Think you should have mentioned that in your advert

 

[marky1973]

well a few are but that was the point of saying to people to ask me questions about the items, all figures are in pretty good con too.

Ah the "Well I told them to Ask" game.

Yeah, oldest trick in the book. What good reason is there not to mention the repro?

To make more money of course :roll:

Thing is, when i first started collecting and e bay buying, i was fooled by auctions like this... trusting the seller :roll: and ended up with several repro weapons scattered throughout my colleciton. And by the time you realise or someone else informs you, it's often too late. Which is what they're counting on.
I think this is outrageous. And to post it on a collector's forum... the gaul! :shock:

Same here Pete, ended up being a very costly lesson. It's that sort of attitude (as a slightly more informed collector ) I despise.

Good thing is he's outed his own auction and selling practises by coming on here.

I have to say that I was disappointed too, hence my post. I think that sellers, especially when they know there are repro weapons, should advertise the fact.

The advert leaves a sour taste in my mouth and I honestly don't think that the seller should be allowed to post the link on here unless he makes changes to his auction

I agree. So that's link removed.
