Seems that my expectations of my shipment coming in at the end of the week won't be happening. Seller won't contact me after an inquiry of payment being received and requesting a tracking #.

Kinda ironic as other buyers state that this guy has "good communication".

I just had 3 transactions on ebay (not TF's), and I contacted the seller a few times in each case asking for a tr#.. 1/3 responded, but all 3 packages came in, so dont worry, they are probably just busy!

He has an okay number of feedbacks and it's 100%. Seems like he's doing this from home, so I'll give it til the end of the week for him to give me a response. If anything, I probably will receive the items by then.

I'm still trying to get a replacement for my out-of-box broken Prowl, but I can't seem to find one, and Hasbro will only promise to send me something of comprable value :madfawk: I so know I'm getting a Swindle if I send my Prowl back...

Not sure about alternator value but for binaltechs, it seems odd that the inexpensive BT's are Swindle, Hound and Grimlock. The more higher priced ones are Prowl, Meister and the S2000. I'm guessing because these are more sought after?

I just had an Alternator come in yesterday. The guy shipped 1-day which was cool, but the box was opened, ripped, and cut. The inside packaging was sealed.


Even though I was going to open it, I felt like I was tricked so I left him negative feedback. Apparently, it was opened by customs since he's in Canada, so he's going to give me a refund minus the shipping, and I get to keep it. I guess I jumped the gun on the negative feedback :hsdunno:


Anyway, I'd say just be cautious of buying from foreign sellers since customs might mess it up.
