gernot Posted April 15, 2003 Share Posted April 15, 2003 Look at this....Ebay No: 3127479912 Original Thunder Robot with Box !!!Seller: snypaz69 with just 5 feedbacks.When I looked at the picture it seemed familiar in a way... and guess what.. I found the same pictures in my picture archive from old auctions.The exaxtly same pictures had been added to an auction in February 2001 with lot of more pictures.As I remember the toy had auctioned for about 10000 Dollar (if it was sold, who knows ?).So buyers beware.. the seller offers a buy it now option in his auction text, very unusual.What are you guys thinking of that ... ?

dratomic Posted April 15, 2003 Share Posted April 15, 2003 The guy also says that he will only accept CASH for the sale, otherwise he'll have to pay too much in taxes since the robot is so expensive... I don't know about this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robotnut Posted April 16, 2003 Share Posted April 16, 2003 These Thunder Robot pictures were swiped from myhomepage. I know because, I cropped them likethey are now on Ebay after I swiped them from Ebaya year ago. Take a peak at the link below...I'm always finding images from my site on Ebay.Is there no "honor among thieves" ? :P http://www.robotnut.com/rare/rar7.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robot polishing his rocket Posted April 16, 2003 Share Posted April 16, 2003 BEWARE OF THIS SELLER!he also mailed me saying he would except $4k for the sonic train robot.and yes, he also muttered something about taxes and him saving some money!i asked if the box was original, and for more pics...GUESS WHAT?....i got no response.his last auction was for a robby sled. the pix for this was stolen from ozzies' site, BUT interestingly, he WAS left + feedback.DID HE SELL THIS TO HIMSELF UNDER ANOTHER HANDLE?the plot thickens.anyway, i guess am saying to BE CAREFUL.ALL THE BEST MY ROBOT COLLECTING FRIENDS.

Radar Posted April 16, 2003 Share Posted April 16, 2003 This seller is a thief of course; he offered me the space patrol for 3500 $, the sonic for 3000 $, etc. always cash in an envelope; I warned ebay 10 days ago but they answered everything looks allright for them; anyway let's buy these robots for 10000 $, they're so nice; kingtoyz is his own pseudo ("djyboo" one week ago.

Guest neatstuff Posted April 16, 2003 Share Posted April 16, 2003 I see the seller has ended the auction early!?States: The Item Is NO Longer Available, or should we say, It never was available. I think your complaints to the Ebay administrators must have shut him down. Good Job!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Velocity Posted April 16, 2003 Share Posted April 16, 2003 You know, I have been buying and selling online for almost seven years, and I've only been seriously burned twice in all that time. Both times were by Canadian sellers pulling high-dollar scams of one kind or another. They rip you off, and then retreat behind a wall of silence and/or Customs red tape.INVADE CANADA NEXT!!
