Yeah, this looks very hinky. All the auction pictures from this guy have different backgrounds. It looks like he's filched pictures from a lot of different sources. Zero feedback to boot. DX-chogokin king, have you filed a complaint with e-bay yet?
Maybe some of us could send this guy a few e-mails asking for important details, and some other photos.
Maybe a request to see a couple of those toys in the same shot...

You should definitely report him to eBay.
I just took a quick look at his other auctions, I notice that lots of his pictures are taken from someone else because I've seen them before, exactly the same pictures. Some of them even from Yahoo Japan.
Very likely this is a scam.

I just report his AZZ to ebay but i dunno what ebay can do about it since the auction link is over 90 days. There are alot things ebay cant do after 90 days..lol I cant view it no more plus the pictures must have deleted. I think u guys should report to ebay as well before someone else get burn again. I think we have responsbility to get rid those F@#% scamers that try to cheat people so ebay will be a better place for people to trade stuffs. That just my 2 cents  Bryan |

I still CAN NOT believe ebay still let this @#$% running his auctions. He should be SUSPENDED by now. I am starting to question ebay's ability to catch potential FRAUD or LISTING VIOLATION |

Having zero feedback for a super robot collector is just unbelievable. Although I'm not totally convinced he is is a fake, there is no way I would risk bidding on any of his stuff. One thing that makes me wonder is because he has some sort of odd stuff mixed in with the good stuff, but regardless, I would never bid on anything from zero feedback seller ever unless it costs less than $30.

" Although I'm not totally convinced he is is a fake"

Most experienced Ebayers will immediately draw up a flag when they see a "new" seller on ebay with these kinda "rare" items. I suspected this seller is a scam as well. 0 feedbacks definitely doesn't not make me want to bid on the items, no matter how rare it is... its just not worth the trouble when all if just a hoax.

okay, 2 things here: 1. i never said it was okay to just copy someone else's pics. i am just saying that sellers do it all the time. if the true owner of the pic/description thinks he has a right to it, then he can report the guy to Ebay. 2. if you want to know how to "scam" your feedback, look for the listings made in the philippines. there are thousands of scam "buy it now" listings there, usually the listing is for a recipe or an e-book, it is listed for a buy it now price of less than two cents or nearly free. all you do is win the listing by bidding and the seller just asks you to leave positive feedback instantly, and shortly after, he will do the same for you. they just do this over and over until they rack up their feedback. how is this possible? because in Ebay.ph, registering and listing items is for FREE! What r u talking about?
