Check this out:

:HALUC:

For comparisons sake. Here is a slightly more realistic seller:

OMG, I'm dieing laughing here. $200, lol. Ya'd think, on $195 profit, he could atleast overnight the set to you instead of parcel post. ;-)

I saw a thread on 2005 about this dude... apparently he was able to hawk a KO abominus for $150.

If there were ever a time to sell, I'm beginning to think this year is it. Stupid movie.

Why? He's doing nothing wrong.

The ones that need slapping are those who are foolish enough to pay that price.

Just for being outrageous.

However, point taken. :grin:

LOLs

Maybe I should get into this business, and sell POSs for just-lightly-less-unfair amounts.

My god, people are such dumbasses...

This is what makes me laugh the most about the auction (other than the outrageous price)

These are Lower Grade Plastic pieces that are great to have for Display but not so good to play with

Why would someone pay that much for lower grade plastic pieces?

I doubt these will sell for that price.

I really hope noone just getting into collecting, or shopping for a gift falls for this. Could you imagine your gf getting this for your birthday thinking she just bought some amazing gift. :sad:

the seller is on crack and the people dumb enough to buy these KO's need a brain transplant. Jeez....no serious collector would ever pay 200 plus for a KO. Especially since those RM ones are common

I just bought powerlinx kicker from him. It was cheap. I looked around at his stuff. He has more KOs and there all $150-$200. What the hell is that? :???:

I really hope no one buys this..

I hope they do.

America is based upon seperating stupid people from their money.

I love America.

So, all I have to do is go to the Big Lot’s across town, buy all of the KO’s for $5 a pop, and sell them for what the real thing goes for on Ebay?
Hell, I’m in the wrong business.

LOL seriously.

What makes it super wierd is that the rest of his wares are dently priced. He just LOVES those KO combiners for some odd reason. >.>

He has to be on crack.
If the KO's are worth that much, I'm sitting on a frakking goldmine.

Put it into perspective.

They got a bargin.

I would have charged them three times the amount the seller was asking.

$19.99 for the Devastator KO?

I didn't see anything wrong with the auction untill I saw the price. He doesn't seem to be hiding the fact that it's a knockoff. Anyone who knows anything about Transformers should immediately see this as a knockoff, and so would not pay $200 for it. I picked up An authentic, loose, near complete, G1 Devastator less than a year ago for under $75.00.

by **Godmodule** » Thu Apr 12, 2007 3:33 am

I bought the KO Devastator for like 15 bucks shipped, and I still felt ripped off.

by **Uncrazzimatic** » Thu Apr 12, 2007 7:40 am

Well if you're stupid enough to buy it then it's your own fault.

If he managed to post this auction while on halucinogenic mushrooms then he has far greater mental power than most people in this thread are giving him credit.
