BBTS photo error

So once again I noticed BBTS listed an item incorrectly.

The photo of the item is clearly a Henkei Thundercracker, but they list it as a Henkei Skywarp. As I wanted a Thundercracker, I purchased it.

My question is >> am I actually ending up with a Skywarp or do they photograph the exact item that they will be shipping?

:P

I am pretty sure you will get a SW. Most of the time they include a line that the picture may be temporary or may not be exactly like the item sold.

I would contact them and cancel.

I just emailed them with the issue. (Good idea)

Don't they take pics of any used figure and post those pics with the sale item? I don't think they use stock photos over and over again for used figures? or maybe they do ?

In anycase, lets hope I'm getting my thundercracker....



As a side note >>>What does a loose SW / TC Henkei run for normally anyways?

They *always* photograph the individual vintage (read:loose) item.

It's definitely a picture of either Henkei or BotCon TC. yet it is listed as Henkei Skywarp. Now I duuno how much a loose TC goes for, especially if it is just the figure and no packaging. It's a nice deal to get Henkei TC for $60, I paid $91 for mine a few weeks ago.

It could be wrong picture, or wrong listing, your best to contact them. Henkei Skywarp on Ebay never goes as high as Henkei TC.Knowing BBTS, they may just cancel the whole order, or give you what is pictured.

If it is supposed to be Henkei Skywarp, well that's a little higher than what my friend paid for it. I got the Classics Skywarp loose but mint for $8 at our local flea market.
