Just wondered how a collector of AFA figures didnt know if the DT sabers were real or not? looks like a cop out to get bids.

breaches ebay policy- but........

yeah its pretty damn obvious this person knows they arent selling £1000's of figures, but not declaring it in hope of getting some high bids.....

I can't see where it mentions DT sabres...

 

[plantman]

Thats exactly it, look at the pictures and sabres are DT ones, the seller answers a question that they bought these figures at a car boot....

so someone will see those pics and think "oh my god, DT sabers and the seller doesnt know" ill bid £500 and get a bargain...

 

[rob71]

Ah I see it now, so guilt by omission.... although he has answered a question on the weapons saying best to assume they are fake. He's breaking the rules either way.

It's not great, he'd have been better doing a float test and just stating whether they're repro or not. I'll be having a bid just for the stand. Can always dump the weapons!
To be fair he's made public a question about the weapons, think most of us know what the 'don't know whether they're genuine or not' means

Float test is useless for most sabers :wink:
