What do you guys think? Is it worth putting him on ebay? There's no way I'd get the price I'd agreed with my customer (hell, I doubt I'd even recoup my costs), but there's also no parts on Krang I could recycle for other customs, and I don't just want to junk him. I've never had much luck selling TMNT customs on ebay...

Any opinions/advice would be gratefully recieved...

I guess the question is how much would you ask for him? Maybe someone here would buy him off of ya.

Wow dude. What a shame. Sorry to hear your customer bailed on you. :/... Let us know his going price. Like jester said, maybe someone here will buy him.

Never mind guys - looks like my threat to put it on ebay worked, I received an email about an hour after posting this. I've recieved part-payment and should have the rest soon.

It's just so frustrating when this kind of thing happens - it's bad enough on a normal custom, but even worse when it's something you've literally spent dozens and dozens of hours working on...

Kickin' stuff, man. I don't see why you don't you have your own company.

Ulisses31 · 11-23-2011, 07:41 AM

Very well done

mondo_geckers · 11-25-2011, 10:46 PM

Sorry, he was shipped off a couple of weeks ago...

I'm about to start on my last TMNT customs for a while - doing repaints of the NECA figures and a Mirage/original toy-inspired Leatherhead. Pics will be forthcoming once I start work...

mondo_geckers · 11-27-2011, 06:07 AM

really clean work here.

Is the guy selling it, or is this you selling it?

That's the guy who commissioned it. Thanks for bringing that to my attention - I have no problems with people reselling my customs, but I would have liked some acknowledgement that it was my work - from the auction description it's implied that the seller created the custom...

No problem man I thought you would want to know about it or if anyone wanted to pick it up.

by the way, how much did you sell it to him for?

I'd rather not give out that info, all I'll say is that I'd be very surprised if he recouped what he paid for it.

What does "recouped" mean? Are you talking about a resale on his part?

Yeah, the guy who originally commissioned the figure is reselling it on ebay (see above link). I've emailed him to ask if he can edit his listing to give me credit for the custom, so I just have to wait and see.

11-29-2011, 06:48 AM

Why not, its not yours anymore?! and your not selling it. i just want to know merely for the fact of how much something that is custom like that goes for. im not going to buy it, even if it was 5 bucks i wouldn't, because that's not my thing.
