Drop shipper

Funny how they have negative feedback saying they are using stolen CC's and EBAY does nothing about it.

Drop ship. They have negative feedback that states they drop ship.

Got to love ebay.

Ebay couldnt give a sh*t as they are making 12% profit off the 130 and then they own paypal and take another 2.5% why should they prevent it if its making them money hence why i moved my business off ebay (y)

They sure try to stop scammers yet here is an obvious drop shipper. Lol.

Oh OK I had not checked but figured it probably was even without checking.

Thanks

You're welcome.

I was scammed once. Reported the seller and less than 24 hours later they were kicked off of ebay. Thankfully I had my money refunded.

The "Limit One Per Customer" is a dead giveaway every time, while the big box stores do like to restrict buying, an ebay seller has absolutely no reason to. I got two pet shops on my second drop ship order, I was able to return them to Walmart and they refunded the persons credit card, made my day!

Good point about the limit.

So did you get your money back?

Yeah, the funny thing was that I reported it to Google Wallet several times for a refund and could not get a response from them at all, once I notified the seller though, I got my money back in a few minutes! Apparently they didn't want any waves, despite my attempts to flag them, no one at Google Wallet seemed to care, but naturally Walmart wasn't very happy, they didn't tell me to return anything but I felt it would the simplest way to resolve it. I have actually been on the other side of one of these scams before and for me, it was $2100 taken out of my bank account from paypal, it was a huge disaster and I would never want anyone to go through all of that.

I just wanted to suggest that a good shorthand rule I use is that if I need to write a post asking if it's a scam, I answered my question already

Drop shipped items are a tiny fraction of his business, most of his sales are auctions for real items he has in his store, why would he be drop shipping? He is also actively listing his current items, I don't get why he would jeopardize his real business like this, a drop shipper wouldn't have that many real auctions for real medium dollar items like that, way too much work!

Looks like a good deal to me. The seller has quality sales and history.

Looking at past sales for this set, it is right in line price wise.

You guys think this is a legitimate sale? I'd like to see some of the past sales for this set, I haven't seen it going for $180 free shipping when NIB...ever. Scratch that, the only time I did was from guy who was listing them for $169 that was selling tower bridges for $200 shipped and I only saw him because a member (I think Ed) posted it as an example of en illegal drop shipper.

Typical Fraudulent Drop Shipper Warning Signs: 1) Almost always Buy It Now. 2) Stock Picture 3) Price usually much lower than average ebay sales (Too good to be true) 3) Minimal Feedback of around 20 or less with similar Lego sales at rock bottom pricing 4) Almost always larger, more expensive sets These guys will never have a 1000+ feedback because once people start reporting them they move on to another user name/account.

All right then, if you guys think its legit, I'm gonna bite.

I have not heard of that before, that would make sense I guess but I have no idea how it works exactly, thats kinda the info I was hoping to get from this thread. Well, I just bought it, we will see what happens I guess, I don't know if there is a way of backing out of the sale now.

I think you'll be OK. This set has been selling in the $160-$180 range, plus the seller has over 1000 feedback with all sorts of sales, not just LEGO sets. If I didn't have one, I would have bought it.

could it possibly be stolen merchandise? it would allow him to undercut other sellers on the same item since he has $0 invested in it. what ever he sells it for would be pure profit.

I honestly think its a little unfair for us to just be assuming these guys are "Shyster Shippers" Who knows where he could have gotten the set. I pick up sealed sets all the time off of craigslist for prices that would allow me to undercut other sellers. So thats not really fair to just assume because I got a Sealed Robie house for 100 that me selling it for 140 is illegal.
