Ebay steals and deals

[QUOTE=blackiecats]
Cool win!

I’m guessing a lot of people missed it, with the auction title being ‘thundercat

The seller was pretty silly there, because if the title had ‘Thundercats’ in it, I’m betting the Stinger would have sold for much more.

Good luck with opening him, I just couldn’t do it! :frowning:

Yep, still struggling with the decision!

well here are my two lastest. I just won an 8 back Slythe for $36 and an 8 back Mumm-ra with battery for $102 off of Ebay the other day

Please post how this goes with that seller. I wanted to bid on a few of his items but the Money Order only and 0 feedback made me hesitant to bid.

Those 2 factors raised some red flags on my end too.Plus the dates on the pictures showed January 2 2004. Perhaps a mistake but maybe not

I’m crossing my fingers this seller pulls through. I haven’t been screwed on Ebay yet, but we’ll see…if it does happen then I’ll definitely have to do my homework beforehand. The seller’s name is ‘Amy Gomez’ - she/he/…sold 47 items. Hopefully with all the spontaneous auctions listed she means business and not out to swindle many people. I hope the carded Driller looks as good as what was in the picture…I got it less for what it went loose ($164!). 8-back Monkian for $32.00. Roll The Bones.

I wonder how much an 8-back Panthro would go for w/ all these crazy bidding wars?

Matt - I’d appreciate any information you receive about your items from HollaBack…(?)

BTW- I’m new to this board and this will be my only childhood hobby…collecting Thundercats. I picked up Lee’s Toy Guide for starters. I see good folk here too. Later.

Well it looks like the same few people are bidding on these items. It is amazing since some of the stuff is not all that hard to find and not in the best condition. Even foreign carded figures are selling for way over what they should. It is very interesting…

So far the Ebay seller Hallaback2me4good143 has been prompt with replies to my emails. Will email a tracking #. Says she has more Thundercat items to put up for sale. A good sign…now just have to wait and see how well the cards are…hopefully an AFA Driller.

Anyone know how much I paid for my Panthro 8 back 1 1\2 years ago from an online store?..60 bucks. The minute one pops up on Ebay people will go insane. I feel bad for all the people trying to start their collections or continue theirs including myself because it seems like you have to have deep pockets in order to collect Thundercats

I believe that seller is a banned seller from Texas that was once IonIndustries. Hopefully it is not. They had some good stuff up for auction and not just Thundercats. I had bought something from them way back when and believe I still have the address in my archived emails. I was able to get my money back at least.

And you can back this up?

Do you have his name and address? If you do we can compare info.

Hallaback Seller on Ebay

Hello all thundercats fans, I just saw this thread on the new seller Hallaback that sold some thundercats. I bought two She-Ra Princess of Power items and sent payment today. I will let you all know how the transaction went. If anyone wants to discuss this, you can contact me at:

stacycollector1977@yahoo.com

Talk to ya later, Chris.

Kriz I will let you know how it goes with her. Hollaback is very friendly and prompt with emails (but just to be on the safe side i got insurance and a tracking number on mine). I believe she is based out of Las vegas not texas if I remember right (from paying). Im hoping this works out though

Manny/Jaga you are right in that I also feel bad for people just starting there collections and paying way too much for damaged/non mint items. There are so many sites out there that sell carded thundercats in better condition and for cheaper. Im going to have to start saving and maybe pick up a figure every few months now (unless I can get a good deal) in order to finish the other half of my collection

Same here I asked for insurance and she/he ships FedEx. Based out of Las Vegas, NV. So…it’s a gamble :slight_smile:

Ok - What do we do now? Hallaback2me4good143 is no longer a registered user. My order was marked as “Payment Received” on Jun. 1st. Stacy, Matt?

Here you guys go:

I wouldn’t call it a steal just a :shock: !!!

Some very interesting things going on at the bay…

I possibly have a similar Ben-Gali coming my way. North American card in a little better condition, except no name tag. Certainly nowhere near that price though.

Any word on Hallaback2me4good143???

Holy crap that is crazy for that Bengali. My 2 MOC Bengalis and my loose complete Bengali and loose complete Playful Bengali didnt cost that much combined. 600 dollars is crazy

As for the auction with hollaback. Im going to email her again tomorrow, Im not worried yet I’ll give it another week then I’ll be worried. Then ill talk to Ebay and the post office and see if anything can be done about it (maybe get her charged with mail fraud or something)

Ebay has become a haven for crooks and thieves…people know that Thundercats are red hot and are taking advantage of it. I mentioned in an earlier post different red flags about this seller but it seems like nobody paid any attention. 0 feedback and only wanting Money Orders as a form of payment are 2 big red flags. For those that had transactions with hallaback you may be in for a long fight to get your money back. I cant stress enough to do your homeowrk before dumping hundreds of dollars on an item. Look at the feedback…actually read it and check for feedback from buyers. If there is none that should raise some flags on your end. Is it really worth it to buy something from a 0 feedback because most likely it will sell for a lower price? Its a big risk i’m not willing to take.
