was not disputing the cost bro,just making sure i got the price right,is all

I get that, I'm not mad about money being made because it's what happens on here. He played the "collector to collector" nonsense about wanting it for his collection. That's what's irking me.

Fair enough, with the trade I did with Marvelknight I included a glassman customs tony stark unpainted head, he may not want it hint hint, lol, but if you 2 are close you can atleast see it. I had purchased the scaled down ML IM 2pack/maria hill headsculpt, it's a nice fit and comicbook feel, the RDJ is more realistic, so you get a choice of what style you want to fit a certain dio or look. He's a good guy and he can make custom casts if not listed, let him know he might be able to scale something down or up.

It's called scalping. If the US market is willing to pay that much, and you have the product, there you go. Of course if he picked it up at TJ Maxx and made that much, it's good business. But buying it from someone here and doing that is kinda wrong. Sorry that happened to you.

Well if your painting skills are good enough, you could just buy the head.

Not sure if he got my package yet or not though,... shipped it by surface with tracking but surface takes a while, he wasn't in a rush which was great as rush delivery is like $160 lol, but shoot the shit with him he may of gotten it, I just figured I would of got pm'd about the level of awesomeness. lol

lol,he knows you're cool so he does not mind waiting it out,but im sure he will be in touch when your package arrives

[Ninjinister]

I'm more concerned about the dupe that ended up paying over $200.

I'm not caring about money tbh, like I've said. Opportunties are made to be taken and we'd all do it given the chance. But harping on about wanting something for your collection and it "making" your birthday to go on and sell something annoys me

I have a new starting price for mine too if I do decide to sell. Assuming people are willing to pay that for it

im sure will make a nice little earner from it,when you do decide to get rid of it.

[Ninjinister]

Well, looks like I'll never afford one then :|

Well that $8 one eBay has free shipping, but only if you're in the US. I might get that one, even though I have never painted a head. Just get some paint remover and practice on it!

That's just called being a scum bag, plain and simple.

I wanted a set for the kid but I will just get the RDJ head from Glassman and the Chinese warmachine and be happy with that lol

Yeah, looks like these puppies have gone. I'll keep checking my TK, but I think the sense of disappointment is starting to get me down.

[shortysben]

Against my better judgement, you have all made me feel inclined to address this:

First and foremost I would like to publicly apologize to mgtaj, if you feel like I did you wrong I am sorry, it was never my intention to just outright "flip this item".

With that being said I also want to mention that I was grabbing this for myself, when the pack arrived I was very underwhelmed by it, I decided to toss it on the bay with a ridiculous price as I figured if Someone was willing to pay that price it would be worth it for me to let it go, as I only sold this to purchase some expensive legends I have had my eye on. If I had straight up traded this for figures instead of using eBay as an exchange medium this probably would have turned out different.

As to being called a scalper, I have always been generous on my trades here and any other site I have been on, it's easy to call me a scumbag and scalper over this, but ask anyone I have dealt with, and they will tell you this isn't the case.

While I know this post will hardly dissuade anyone from changing their thoughts about this and me, I just hope this one isolated incident does not overshadow all the good things I have done in the past with the community

[Jackieboy]

but arent you the guy that wants a good deal from everyone else?so trying to justify why you slapped a $250 price tag on an "underwhelming" set as you put it,is kinda rich of you,dont you think.

[trebleshot]

Get back on topic guys. This isn't a feedback forum. Any further discussion of trades - past or present - should be taken to PMs

[darksword]

Sigh, everyones just mad cuz it's not released in the US. I couldn't care less, I'd never pay over $50 for the set. Rather just make my own custom figures.

[Trainwreck]

Does anyone still have these? I'd like a MIB one. I'll trade for it.
