Why so many people hate myteefinestuff?

I do like the store, nothing but good experience, but there´s a lot of haters round there. So why it is hated?

Price gouging. Basically a nicer version of footballorange guy. They rarely if ever have a sale. Until they are more competitively priced, I will stray from that site at all costs.

Id rather spend hours digging through bins at garage sales looking for accessories than pay what they ask for one grenade or bomb.

...haters? Get out of here with that pretentious sh*t. Dude has good stuff but charges WAY too much for it. That's not hating, that's reality.

I've been thinking about buying from there, because I think it's cool that there's a place like that.

Shipping price is too expensive!! I added a $0.10 item to my cart and the shipping was $5.50/$8+. That site will be my only last option in the world.

I dont hate Tom or his store neither!!!!

.....I had bought from him thanks to a friend in USA for saving in shipping cost...Nice stuff and sometimes so great rare items, excelent service for customers, ....just as everybody points sometimes the price is disheartening!

Anyway that´s the deal...you accept it or not...!

It was the same for me then again i'm in argentina, but that's usually the shipping cost i'd pay for a figure...guess i was hoping it'd be cheaper for a handful of small, lightweight accesories.
And i was dissapointed at some prices...i'd never pay $5 for splinters' robe lol...but overall i don't hate the site, they've plenty of items that are in the $0.10-$1 range that i'd like to get...i'll definitely shop there once i can get some more paypal.

Thing is...a single accesory here costs anything from $1.50 to $4, no telling if they're playmates, and there are no bargain bins or garage sales for me to turn to, so despite the $8 shipping cost, it may still be worth it for the $0.10-$1 items i just need the basics (turtles' belts, sai, katanas, chucks, bo) paying $28 for 7 weapons seems outrageous, and noone even seems to be selling belts here.

myteefinestuff is a Great site which we should be thankful for that it exists!
I ordered a few times from Tom and the experience has always been awesome.
He refunded me shipping which was incorrect on his calculator at checkout and he ships lightning fast! Packs everything very securely and is very accurate!

The complete figures and the MOSC figures themselves and some of the repro labels are too overpriced imo.

BUT he has some really good prices on accessories imo!!! Way better than eBay because of their crazy seller fees! Just the early stuff is expensive because it breaks so easily and is rare and the later stuff because it is rare.

Even tho i don't understand the pricing on many of the items, i gotta admit it's a pretty good resource because of the sheer amount of stuff that's on there...maybe it's aimed at hardcore collectors or the pricey items are rare...i can't justify spending that kind of money on accesories atm myself (like the ones that are like $5 a pop like the splinter robe i wanted ) but then again i may be the exception since i'm broke as ****, other people may consider it pocket change XD i have to be as frugal as i can...well, anyway...his store, his prices, so i'll simply opt just not to buy pricier items.

Anyway, i checked my mail today and he had sent me emails regarding my order like 10 days ago i hope i didn't come across as rude, i just didn't check my inbox, d'oh!I replied explaining the situation...

I like spending money on his site. I've found some things that were fairly priced. Overall, I've ordered many things and spent $1000 for some nice figures on his site.

His MOC figures are always in such great shape.

So I'm a hater for telling it like it is, and pointing out flaws in logic/grammar? Or is it that I don't want to pay $10 for a tiny plastic sword?

Guy buys stuff and flips it for 10 X what he paid for it. He's a scalper.
