i have just decided i am not gonna buy of ebay anymore(well try)
sick of figure being described wrong or being over priced or coming with repro weapons

jayjedi · Nov 6, 2006

keep the faith john, i had 3 carded figures in a row 1 with shattered bubble , 1 a blatent recard and the other looked as if it had been run over.

then other times you can get a vc jawa for less than a tenner

some you win some you lose
the only alternatives are dealing with the dodgy characters on this forum :wink:
or sky high prices with dealers

Give it one day and you'll be back. :wink:

If you cannot return the figures just sell them and you may make some money.

This is one of the reasons i went down the AFA route, at least you know what you are getting; i was trying for a lose collection but was finding unless i struck it lucky i would have to get three or four of the same item to find one that was presentable.

that's exactly what put me off. the first loose figure i bought was described as c9.5 from a reputable seller, with a decent photo. it turned up with loose limbs and paint wear on the back :roll:

I agree with Inzaman,AFA are more expensive but you know you are getting the real deal.
Just completed my collection of the 21 Star Wars figures all AFA graded MOC.
I will post a photo sometime,they look cool.

thats why i have started trying to get battered carded figs to make a mint loose collection
only trouble is i can never bring my self to take them of the cards
think i will just make enough of a hole to remove them then save the cards

i've got some cards that have had that done to them. if done well it's not too obvious, so at a later date youcould always display as carded figures.
