The gold figures look like they're custom. Well, the base anyway. It looks like someone took some gold figures and glued them to a stone base.

I don't know how much they're worth, but if it's not too much, I'd be interested in them.

I won it in a lot on ebay.. Sadly i don't have any info on it..my best bet is that someone got it as a child, or for their kid. Since its sign as the characters lol. Idk how they couldn't tell who, was who thou you can clearly see their weapons..

Has anyone purchased from this guy and gotten their items?

Not trying to be rude or accuse anyone of anything, but I've asked for tracking 2-3 days ago, he said he'd send tracking after work, but now I haven't heard back from him and he hasn't responded to pm...

note: will edit this once i get tracking/item delivery

*edit*

his shipping timeframes suck, but I have been provided tracking and package is on its way.

I have. I bought the four Dark Horse mini-figures painted in gold and put on stands. It took longer than what I wanted for him to get the figurines to me, but it wasn't too long.

But I will say, now that something has been brought up about his shipping, that he could have shipped better. All four figurines were wrapped in bubble wrap (not seperately, all together), and put in a box. When I got them, some of the parts were warped. Luckily I straightened them out without the metal snapping.

So shipping could be better, but yes, I did get what I paid for.

Well I'm starting to get a little concerned and my clicking finger is getting antsy on paypal's "report a problem" button.

I paid on the 6th (Tuesday) requesting tracking once he sent out. I sent a PM on the 13th (Friday) asking for tracking as I never heard from him again, he responded a few hours later saying he'd send it once he was out of work.

Sent another PM yesterday (Monday) as I never heard back from him again.

Still no contact.

I also cant verify that they show up physically as they're not being shipped to me and I wont be in that area for about 2 weeks, so the trackings very, very important here.

I also now notice the email i sent the funds to is unverified in paypal...

again, ill edit this post once/if he responds w/ my tracking

*edit* again, he finally contacted, though didnt ship item out for a week.

I have faith, as the first transaction I had with him went well.
Mind you, I've had similar issues, with unreturned PMs but I'm assuming he's just busy and will get back to us ASAP. He was online sveral times in the past few days though... it only takes a minute to respond, unless he's been flooded with PMs for various items.

I just got a PM from him containing the tracking info, so all is well I suppose.

However, this kind of upsets me:

"Shipped/Billed On:
03/13/2012"

Shipped today? wtf its been a week and you shipped it TODAY? I Paid a WEEK ago, asked for tracking 4 days ago, and was promised it "after he got off work", when he didn't even have the item SHIPPED by that point.

maybe if this was a 10-20 dollar item it wouldn't bother me so much, but -.- wtf.

UPS is the devil when it comes to taking care of packages. I don't know about anyone else here, but I worked at a UPS once as an unloader of trucks, and they prefer speed to protection.

But, since my APARTMENT office is the freaking devil, I'd have a better chance at getting my items with UPS. Here's why:

My apartment office has a manager that has her own hours of operation, ones that are different from what's posted. It's supposed to be open 8-4 M-F. Most days she leaves around 3. And takes a two hour lunch from 11-1. And usually the mail runs around 3-4pm. If a package is too big for the box, they take it to the office, and if it's open, leave it there for me to pick up.

Most days, it's not left because the office is closed, so they try everyday until they're open when they run. Now, if the package is at the office, when my wife gets home from work at around 3:10 or so, most days, the office is closed. Which means, I have to hope and pray that one day they stay open the hours they're supposed to.

Today I picked up a package that had been there for at least 5 business days, and a package from mysterycolor that had been there since either yesterday or Wednesday.

And if something happens to be delivered on Saturday (like my 'Rise of Leslie Vernon' signed and numbered poster), I'm out of luck, and have to wait for the regular week.

UPS shows up at my door 6 days a week, sometimes as late as 7:30pm, so I always know I'll get what's coming to me. As long as it's packed securely, I'll take UPS any day.

^ In your case, I can understand 100%. It would suck having to conform to those rules for my mail. For me though, it's the horrible brokerage fees they apply when receiving anything from outside of Canada.

I'm not saying this is the case, but I've always wondered what would happen to my online accounts at various websites if I died suddenly (car accident, etc). It's obviously not likely, but what if something did happen to him? We would never know, unless his girlfriend/wife knew his login info.

Just a thought.

Obviously I could be wrong, but why else would he not sign in for two weeks?

Digital Ghost
04-02-2012, 09:04 PM
I don't want to jump to any extremes... although anything's possible. He did sell everything at one time, so I thought it merely a case of being overwhelmed with shipping all of it. Maybe everything he sold has been shipped and he's taking a break? He did sell an awful lot of stuff, so perhaps that's the case and he's enjoying his earnings? Regardless, I would imagine he would want to check in and make sure everything arrived safely, etc?

if I was him and I was taking a vacation I would have pm'd each buyer letting them know that there items have been shipped.

But he has left everyone in the dark on whats going on. I dont even know IF they shipped 2 weeks ago or last weekend or even at all??

Digital Ghost

Don't get me wrong, I'm not excusing anything he's done to anyone... it's true, he should have done everything you've mentioned. Tracking numbers would have been more than appreciated for those that requested 'em, even if shipping was going to be slow.

The last I heard from him, he was about to ship my items.

I think it comes down to the fact that I've had a successful transaction with the guy, so I'm willing to give him the benefit of making things right. Mind you, I'm protected, if he doesn't come through... I'm not so sure about everyone else that purchased from him. The most I'm willing to wait is a month, not that it should take that long. :tgrumble:

simesquare, with all due respect, we've all gone through hard times at one point or another in our lives... certainly, nothing that's been mentioned in this thread was directed at him in that regard. It's only pertaining to our business dealings with him and while we all have respect for what he may be going through, we have to look out for ourselves as buyers. Surely you can understand that.

Has he forgotten about the legal ramifications of what he's caused here? Buyers (like geoff, for example) have been left feeling ripped off, in the dark and out hundreds of dollars. If he's going through something personal, look, I can respect that... but he should have had the decency and repect enough for his customers to let us know that he had an emergency, even if he couldn't or didn't wish to discuss personal details. And if you know him, or have him on Facebook, couldn't you yourself send him a message in regards to the unfortunate mess this has all become? We're not asking you to divulge whatever it is that he's going through... but he shouldn't have simply ignored all of this.

I hate to be blunt but a few of us have seen his Facebook at this point, so I'll just come right out and say what we're all thinking... if he has time for those "other" artistic hobbies, he clearly has enough time to make things right with his customers. If you've seen his FB, you'll know what I'm talking about. I'm simply too kind to put it here.

Like I said, I'm still hoping that he mailed my item... but at this point, I'm not sure, as he hasn't logged on in weeks and isn't replying to messages. I think I should've received it by now. A simple "yes" or "no" would suffice.

from what navin said there were only 3 sets made for the movie, 1 set he owns, another set in planet hollywood (unless those sold) and now famousjohn21 is claiming to have 2 sets from movie 1?

Did anyone try messaging him on Facebook? I sent a lengthy e-mail (to his PayPal address) explaining the uproar his absence & ignorance has caused here but I doubt I'll receive a reply, as that's what we've come to expect.

If you paid through PayPal and it wasn't a personal payment, you should be protected under their policies.

Thats what I thought. When I filed the dispute I selected the field of incomplete item. It said the complaint would be sent to the seller but they could only assist me if shipping was an issue. Then it suggested I contact the seller. Well I've obviously been trying without a response so its frustrating. After the holiday I'm going to call paypal.

Hey DG, did your item(s) never get shipped? not as promised?

I ask because obviously I opened my case and paypal said they couldnt do anything.

Here is a pic of the swords I have in hand which were claimed to have been Leo's "action swords"

I called my credit card company and they have put a credit back to my account for the dollar amount I paid for the swords. So far this is half the battle.

Now Jester and tmntgeoff you've confirmed that these are not real however could anyone help me get 100% documentation? At this point I obviously believe that they arent but the credit card told me "IF the seller disputes this" I may need to provide them with some additional information/ documentation. I'm in a rock and a hard place because I dont have a COA (because they arent real) and I was told I would get one. I think fact that I was mislead is enough to get me a refund. I will gladly ship these back to him

I know nothing about swords, but when I looked at the pictures, I knew they weren't genuine. They just looked way too new. And not at all what I remember him using.

I'm glad I actually got the items I paid for (the four 75mm TMNT Dark Horse Figurines painted gold and on custom stands), and glad that the sale of the art he had didn't get to the point where I paid him. I was just about to pay for two prints, but he wouldn't get back to me, so I wouldn't pay.

Yeah, he seemed legit, and I got my items, but maybe he was trying to gain the confidence of others by making smaller sales (i.e. to me and others), only to pull scams with the higher priced items.

Good luck to you all.

And just for the hell of it, I just messaged him too. I mean, he's posting about tattoos and acting like everything's fine. It's messed up.

Good to know, thanks! Best thing we can do is continue to warn others about this thief and his shady sales tactics, so no one else gets screwed over. I'd still give PayPal another call if I were you... I will as well. I think there's been several cases placed against him. People like that don't deserve to continue ripping people off, so I'm glad he's off the drome for now.

Actually just posted on all of his posts. I had made an account there before, and although I though I had more posts than I do (11 lol) it still allows me to post although apparently they need to be approved by a moderator.

the worst part about this whole fiasco though, is that this guy probably actually has quite a few real and cool props and tmnt items :/ (obviously besides the fact that he scammed people out of money, I believe most of you were able to get it back from paypal though correct?)

PayPal didn't always put holds on transactions when there is a problem like they do now; this is a blessing if you are a buyer and a double-edged sword if you are a seller.
