Fcbarcelona101 Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 could anybody email this "(business guy)" to see what they say really don't want to walk away from a offer $500 unless i know for sure that... has anybody ordered from this guy? Trust us. This IS a scam. 1- He says he is sourcing the sets from Lego directly, but even if that were true this set has been out of production for years now so unless he saved a couple to sell them later (and at retail to boot) there is no way he got it from TLG 2- Western Union. No way for you to recover your money WHEN they Don't ship the item to you. Keep away!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hepcatpunk Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 You're not going to find it for those prices from stores/craigslist ads on the internet...plain and simple. Don't be na Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverick2k1 Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 I don't know how much more clear Ed could of made this....all these "deals" are SCAMS. They will lure you in with unrealistic prices and sweet talk you to make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. If you want to spend hundreds of dollars and receive nothing in return you should consider donating to a charity. An item commonly known to be worth several thousand dollars will not sell for a few hundred...that's just common sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would anyone in their right mind sell a used Falcon for $500 when you can go on eBay right now and list one for $1200+ and sell it within a couple of hours? It is a scam.

Ed Mack Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 found company selling $1200Info? Do they take PayPal? Credit Cards? I would never buy a 10179 unless it was on eBay or other reputable LEGO site like Bricklink or Amazon. These other so-called "companies" are most likely scams.
