Did anyone see the seller who put $1 Buy It Now Invisible Man kit on eaby with the $43 shipping charge? What a rip!! I reported him so hopefully he will get it yanked off.

I see he changed the Buy it Now to $39 something and reduced shipping anter being reported. he says he still has a few in stock- seems funny if they are tied up in port for inspections. Does this mean they have been released from the inspections?

until I hear otherwise from Moebius and CultTVMan they're still in Customs...so trust that seller not...

He changed it again to add "This item is a pre-order" and to explain the $43 shipping cost previously listed was a "mistake". :rolleyes:

If you notice, he also doesn't state who produces the kit.
Any seller that does that, does not deserve the business anyway.
They do that to keep people from finding out things like it isn't actually available yet.

Thats why I reported him right away - guess he is trying to stay ahead of ebay. I feel sorry for people who dont know any better and buy from these people. How do they get 100% feedback too? Oh well. he wont get my money.

Most likely won't get money from anyone else who reads this forum either, bro!

He probably paid Pre-order prices for a schwack of kits and is planning on doubleing his money (at least)...oddly enough, most people who buy Aurora type kits off Ebay have a little savy about themselves and know better. I liked the way Scott from Monarch handled the Ebay Sellers, selling Nosferatu for $100.00+...He went right on line on Ebay and sold them for his retail price that seemed to put an end to that:thumbsup:

I wonder if the goose selling $1 IM kits combines postage? I'll take 5 cartons........:p
He's now asking $39? What's the retail on these?
Yeah Mcdee, Scott had the right idea. :thumbsup: Collecting multiples for future speculation's fine, but blatantly profiteering on current kits is bordering on criminal in my books!! Most of us know what we're doing through our experience, but what about the new guys? It's a great way of introducing them to the hobby!!:freak::(
