Ya, funny that we're probably bidding against each other...
Speaking of ebay, beware of Sinostory, Sinodolls and now MBJYD (Sinostory), they frequently will say they are "stockout" after you win an auction.

I gave Dreamcab quite a bit of money last night. Won 5 out of the 7 auctions I was bidding on. Thanks to everyone here who jacked the prices up on me I had bad dealings with Sinostory but luckily I didn't give them any money. I won a Hoth Soldier (for only 9.99) and when I tried to pay their PayPal didn't work. I was told by them that someone hacked their account and they were working on getting it fixed. Sinostory asked me if I would prefer to cancel order and he would repost when accounts were straightened out. I said I would prefer to just wait until PayPal was fixed and then I would send money. A week or so went by, Sinostory disappeared from Ebay and I thought that would be the end of it... I didn't pay yet and they didn't ship - nothing lost. Then the following week I saw the exact same auction, same photo used, same text/item description (exact wording and everything) but under the name MBJYD. So I sent a message to MBJYD asking why they were auctioning my Hoth Soldier (which I 'bought' for 9.99 but just went for auction at 40.00ish). They claimed there were not the same person and I let it go at that. I'm just glad I didn't send any money.

Speaking of ebay, beware of Sinostory, Sinodolls and now MBJYD (Sinostory), they frequently will say they are "stockout" after you win an auction. I actually had a Great Dealing with Sino, crap I gotta go look in my ebay doings to see which one it was that didnt screw me. Sinodolls. He actually refunded me a whole mess of my payment and sent some extra stuff because of some Issues. All in all I did ok. It is true about they out of stuff of stuff, then magically have more later on. Its just the standard way of operating for them folks. And I know for a Fact I jacked up a few auctions, Didn't take into consideration the needed Dollars to pull out the W. AND I likely Overpaid for the one I did get. The upside is for all intents I'm done picking up sw5 figures, minus 1, assuming my most recent pickups from another seller arrive. Then I'll just have to Fight the Urge to finish out the Chrome Based set. Because well That would be insane. Right? Yeah... Maybe...

I actually did have good dealings with Sino right up to the issue with the last figure. Probably bought 5 or so figures with no problem from him. I guess 'dems da brakes' in the high stakes game of Attacktix auctions.

Could very possibly be the record for a single [incomplete] figure... no Wolverine. If you think the Colossus Mega is rare how rare do you suppose his missile is?

I believe a Broken Tipped Ghost Yoda on the wrong base went for over 2 bills a few years ago. I myself have wondered if folks wanted to 1 for 1 Black for chrome and vice versa on SW5 as to have a matched set. I like the variety in the display, but the more inline setup matching would be more my speed. But I doubt it'd pan out, lol
