at first glance you thinks its minty moc cut card of somesorts.............but no it has a ****ing repro sticker...why why.........deceitful ****

 

[JuniorChubb]

Its like the Primark version of a Jawa with a repro vinyl cape in an opened bubble...

Someone will bite though

Shocker that, sad that it happens and people get stung

To be fair he does say it looks like a repro sticker. If he didn't mention that then he'd be deceitful. If anyone buys anything without reading the description first then they deserve all they get - laziness and illiteracy are to blame!

Yeah...but once the seller gets a negative and paypal takes the funds back to refund the buyer...it's kinda of pointless for the seller. The bubble would be the only thing of use in the lot.

Shame as he has a couple of nice pieces in his other items for sale,

Yeah you can still "mention" something and for your intentions as a seller to be, underline, deceitful. It's all about how you say it and where you strategically mention something. For me it's what not mentioned in the title of a sale that makes a sale a little deceitful and sellers know it. If he was a completely honest seller who didn't want to fool anyone on any level he'd take the figure out of the bubble picture them side by side and mention "reproduction" in the sale title.

I dunno. Although it's shite he does say so, but like many sellers that piss me off it's in the small print. No idea why anyone would want an item like that to be honest.

Looking at the rest of his stuff there are some lovely items. Makes me want to take up Action Force collecting. Love that SAS Frogman. There are also good A-team, Ghostbusters, Battlestar Galactica, and He-man items.

Nice SW Bits as well

I'd hardly say the actual description of the item is small print! Although I am aware of some sellers reducing the font size on their descriptions, schnide central!

 

[x-pack]

Not literally, but it's not in the title meaning you have to read on. So we've ended up wasting time reading a **** ad on an item that none of us would ever buy. There's probably a word for it..

 

[theslider]

Well if you thought that one was bad, then what about this one:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Star-Wars-Vintage-Kenner-R2D2-1977-12-back-card-/271199565713?_trksid=p2047675.m1850&_trkparms=aid%3D222002%26algo%3DSIC.FIT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D15010%26meid%3D7497826021182779971%26pid%3D100011%26prg%3D1121%26rk%3D5%26sd%3D111061520944%26

Now this IS deceitful!

 

[Michael Sith]

Check the sellers other "vintage items"

The wording on descriptions read like bloody Ts&cs

Jawas :!: And that falcon is cheap..might have 2 :!: as I'm sure he has a few of these

Bloody ridiculous :x

 

[x-pack]

Doesn't actually say reproduction card on the listing. Naughty :roll: People are actually bidding on it
