The winning bidder's in for a nasty surprise.

Poor bastard. I didn't think anyone had the nerve to do that now.

And Kev and Sally might be thinking of upping the price for it.

:rofl:
A genuine reason for using the rofl emoticon!
There were five different bidders. Just shows what using misleading keywords can achieve.
I Froth because I care about miniatures.

I've seen various other minis sold for this or that. It was usually dodgy bloodbowl ones, or Mordheim.

Years ago, I saw this WotC ChainmailOrc Berserker listed and sold more than once for over $20 as a limited edition Citadel Chaos Warrior. :roll: Granted it's been OOP for almost 20 years, but it's still ubiquitous for less than $10 and not the most popular sculpt, compared with the Orc Trooper and Gangfighter.

The same eBayer sold another HF figure

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CITADEL-WARH ... 7675.l2557

Now the table maybe OOP, but the figure isn't

There certainly are some strange bidders on eBay, I believe some are in it for the "hunter instinct" buzz!

I have noticed, that female figures sell, even if still in production....no surprise there though! Do people just not do research of what is still available?

I must start titling my eBay listings a bit more ambiguously, might get things sold!

Saying that, I have done well selling off my duplicate copies of Conquest! :oops: :twisted: :roll:

Is this not against e-bay rules or just good ol' fashioned fraud?

Seller could claim he/she didn't know... :roll:

I've won a few Marauder figures for cheap, as the seller thought these were from another manufacturer. Twenty years ago, I'd have messaged him/her about the error, but now I can't be bothered if they can't research the provenance.

It's fraud if it's a knockoff/recast or bait and switch or you don't receive the item.

That's usually the the excuse with such sellers.

The buyers, though, can easily put in a claim through ebay or paypal if they realise it. The usual "significantly not as described" one should do it.

I thought there was a "no questions asked" return policy.
