[QUOTE="indianawars, post: 471033, member: 5674"] So I haven't been collecting for 7-8 months and thought that I might pick up where I left off. The truth is I was missing it. I decided to focus on a few loose figure that I'm missing from my collecting and one of them is the Imperial Dignitary. After searching for the last few days, I finally found a decent one. No paint chip on the noise which I thought would be nice. The guy has it up for £95, plus £4 postage but with 'make an offer.' I thought that his asking price was a little bit on the high side as I don't remember this selling for such a high price. So I sent him an offer of £60 this morning. A few hours ago my offer was declined, which was fine, but it was the comment left that really annoyed me. (copied and pasted) "Bro don't insult me it's already been reduced it's mint and no paint scratches off nose! Check your knowledge on this figure." So I checked the newly listed eBay items and found another one listed in the same condition at £70 with 'make an offer.' So I sent an offer of £60. Half an hour later I received a counter offer of £65. Happy days! Unfortunately, no sooner had I logged into eBay to accept it did the seller remove that listing :( They left all their other listings up except for that one. I'm now feeling like why did I ever both.
