Same here ... I'm out of stuff to look for.

I just kinda run across things here and there ... but there's not a single TF I'm hunting for.

I could always run to Target and pick up the Decepticharge & Prowl that I know will be on the shelf and sell them on eBay, but that's just too much of a hassle.

$175 shipped ... 2 ways to look at this


1. AFA service is worth at least $120 on something that huge. Shipping has to be around $20 too. In reality, the toy in the box is $35.

2. You paid $175 for poop wrapped in silk.

they don't pull what they used to. I've thought about doing the same thing, stalked auctions with both of them listed ... and seen them both sell for $47 a pair.

After the acutal cost, ebay fees, paypal fees ... you'll make under a $1.

Hmmm.... carefully open the package and remove the toys. Seal everything back up. Send it back, get money back, enjoy playing with Predaking?

Put rocks in place of toy to simulate weight.

:chuckles:

that's what I said about the Predaking I have. There's no way to tell what's in the box because there's no window or anything. There could be JDM rocks in there for all I know.

:noes:
