You could always try ebay. Then again, I don't trust most of the sellers. I've had a bad experience in the past, where I shelled out 15 bucks for a PC game, and never received it.

I should've ninja kicked that damn seller.

Ouch! Sorry to hear that! I've been on eBay for ages now and only had one or two problems. And usually its people buying from me who are causing the problems.

The key is to read the listing a couple times before bidding. Don't get so excited that you bid and then realize its not quite what you want. Make sure you understand what forms of payment the seller accepts, check their feedback rating, and just plain think about how they sound. I won't bid on an item if the seller describes it with 5 words all in caps. I want details before I commit to buying something.

Thanks for the advice, Skeletoncrew! Though, I may wish to wait awhile before I begin bidding on ebay again. I'm still somewhat sour over the events that happened.

RaphRockz · 02-10-2002, 07:30 PM

I have an ebay user ID but the turtle vans I did find are missing parts, I did buy a hard rubber imitation of it though for $3.00

*Skeletoncrew* · 02-10-2002, 07:38 PM

azure turtle, Understandably. I'd be pissed if someone ripped me off. As it is, I do get PO'd when my would-be buyers don't pay me. Shame that the whole world isn't trustworthy...

Good luck with your search RaphRockz. I'm sure there are plenty other potential sources out there. Incidentally, ToyFare is predicting that TMNT toy prices will be rising soon as fans grow up and get nostalgic.

*Skeletoncrew* · 03-05-2002, 02:55 PM

Congrats on the van! I don't need more stuff...but I really want to start getting some of the action figures!

Hot Rod 350 · 03-05-2002, 02:56 PM

i want the 4 classic turtle figures from 88 or the re-release.

*Skeletoncrew* · 03-07-2002, 07:24 PM

They don't seem to be hard to find. I can't believe how many are listed on eBay! I ended up buying a couple of 1988 April O'Neils MOC. One of them has orange boots though, and thats not mentioned in my action figure guide!

**azure turtle** · 03-07-2002, 07:40 PM

Hey Ratking! You bet I'd like to have more time! I spend like an hour on the boards almost everyday, and that's my spare time. Sometimes two hours when I spend study breaks at the Technodrome. Every thing else is spent on studying, homework, or trying not to be a dorm hermit.
