Looks a bit fishy to me???

[Armand78]

Hope I haven't broken any rules but I saw this on evilbay this morning. I asked the seller for additional pics of the gun. But to me it looks like a repro.

My suspicion is that he has placed the gun in to look as if he doesn't know the value (or correct figure) hoping that someon bids 20 quid for a beater Han.

Was wondering if I am being overly suspicious??? Any opinions?

Yes, gun is a repro - no dot on the handle

 

[Armand78]

He has a 2-1b which has a blatantly painted probe. Bad enough selling repro but the old spiel of in his attic for years and childhood collection. How can people be so heinous!! I am going to message him and let him know that I know what he is up to.

thanks,

AJ

The Barada staff stinks like the piece of **** it is. Going to send him a none too pleasantly worded message.....

Reply from the seller:

There have been in the loft for 6 years well I checked if there float and there do so I thought there would be real and I did buy a few job lots of figures back when I was collecting them so maybe there might be are as I'm no expert with these toys I have own them for about 10 years all together regard Tyler

What a load of old ****.

 

[Armand78]

I got something similar. I'll be keeping an eye on this.

"Thanks for letting me no as like I say I'm no expert just used a website to try and match them up as I have loads of weapons I no I definitely have lots of original tho just must be the odd few I'm going to look into a few more websites and if it's the case I will change the listing regards Tyler"

I think he knows exactly what he's doing...

This was his repy on the blaster when i asked him if it floated.......Just put it in the sink for you yes it does regards Tyler

On the picture on ebay there is no circle present on the magazine, the floater looks like it does....(very faint)

You should ask if the one you would receive is the one he's pictured with the dot on it as you don't notice the dot in the listing. Might be funny to see what they come back with.

I have messaged him....we will see

 

[Clawrence]

His repy.......Yes I have just updated the listing as I'm not an expert I used a website to match them up I'm genuie person and have no intention to sell sum thing that it's not as I would go mad myself and a proper Star Wars collector message me saying it a repro as I thought if it floats it was real but he explained and gave me a website to compare all versions of all the weapons so please let me no your thoughts regards Tyler

 

[Clawrence]

Another repy when i pushed him...

I think it's a repro mate like i say I'm an honest person just free money to me off these toys as been sat there for over six years regards Tyler

 

[Clawrence]

He also has an R2 pop up saber....looks painted to me, and the floating pic takes the piss

[Armand78]

Yeah and looks a little too straight for me.

 

[Armand78]

Thank goodness he's an honest guy!!

 

[weasel]

I can only assume, judging by the spelling and grammar in some of his replies that you boys have quoted, when he says he has had them for six years, what he means is he has had them all his life. No way an adult should be writting in pidgen English like that.

 

[Palifan]

Yep, that's repro alright!
