waxwing Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 So that means what? They are going to steal my account? My identity?Banned by someone for buying a cheap set?Giving these guys money just encourages more scams. Then you have to go through the whole getting your money back process. If it seems like a scam, then it's a scam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

humanvege Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 (edited) hey the seller updated price to $190 and then back down to $160...interesting...somethings gotta be wrong with this person's account. It shows no items for sell. Edited October 16, 2015 by humanvege Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KShine Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 (edited) Extremely likely to be a drop shipper - you'll get your item, the "seller" gets their $, LEGO gets their $, Ebay gets their $, the CC holder gets lots of frustration and fear, and then the CC company writes it off, and charges higher interest rates (which you're already paying anyway).

Siddy Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Pickleboy I admire your daring. I think KShine's right though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roxio Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 (edited) Don't LEGO Shop at Home blacklist your address as well if its shipped to you by a dropshipper/stolen CC?So your own regular LEGO Shop at Home account could be banned for a while as well Edited October 16, 2015 by roxio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacsniper Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 (edited) It's so sad to see all the knock-offs Lego in a comic con where enthusiast gather to share their passion and respect intellectual property and copyrights from artists and designers. As much as I like great ROI products, but with toys, I cannot risk any body's life or my business to have issues with paint, plastic quality or loose parts where children can be injured.Maybe Lego need hologram stickers on it's box and other parts for proof of authenticity? More social media/video contents to educate consumers on license and designing cost to justify to premium price tag?

TheGallows Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 2nd listing from this seller today, new LM for £49. No sales for over a year looks like a hacked account, classic example of to good to be true. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Lego-79018-Hobbit-The-Lonely-Mountain-BRAND-NEW-/201497843171?hash=item2eea3515e3:g:QrMAAOSwaA5WjQCT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
