Joe said:I agree with what people are saying, there are always going to be sellers and buyers who will be unaware of this situation but even if they were aware..what are they going to do? Pull their auction? On what grounds? All we have is a bunch of circumstantial evidence that admittedly doesn't look good won't be proof enough for some.
Forum members are far more likely to feel bad by selling Toni figures because it's kind of impossible to pretend you haven't seen all the threads at this stage and of course the majority are nice guys who care about their fellow collectors..yet some still will. It might seem bad form but they will just say until it's proven it's not true.
It will be on their conscience if they cash out knowing full well the figures might be suspect, if you want to do something about it then you can email a link to the thread(s) to buyers + sellers on ebay or the forums but you won't be able to alert everyone or stop everyone from selling these on. I know for a fact your regular ebay dealer won't give a **** even if it IS all proven to be true.
I have a bunch of these, (see my AFA 90 ESB/ROTJ Palitoy focus). Even if i sell them on cheaply with full disclosure, what's to stop the buyer
from flipping them at a higher price with no disclosure?
