I think I just happened upon and bought the most amazing deal in the history of my toy collecting. Can anyone confirm who that is in the back of the picture and if he is supposed to have wheels and and extra arm? Thanks.

Good for you Truecrud! It gives me hope to think that some good deals can still be had out there for Jumbo collectors on the hunt!!

Super Congrats on the score !!!!!
Combattler looks quite clean and complete. Sweet. I assume this was a local find. Myself, being out in the mid-west, I do envy the guys on the coast for finding some of these non-US jumbos from time to time.
Oops, just saw you got it on ebay. WOW, $165, WOW. That is a fantastic score and I wouldn't have found it by the way they had it labeled and categorized.

Congrats on this amazing score. A good example that it's still possible to make great score even with today's crazy prices. Congrats again.

Wow, that's probably a $700-$900 Jumbo in that condition and apparently complete, not counting the other old Popy vinyls in the lot.

just a heads up, NEVER post your finds until youve got them in hand. i won a MIB Mattel GM for 100 bucks and someone contacted my seller and went up to 400 bucks after the auction. people can still find the closed auction listing and contact the seller. i hope you get it. remind them that ebay is a contract and you wont release the transaction if you have to. have those emails on file in your ebay account. good luck.

Good Advice. I think it was one of two things either he saw the one listed from Japan and decided that he could get so much more, or someone went behind my back and told him. I told him I called customer support and that what he was trying to do was seriously against policy. I have saved the emails and taken screen shots of the auction to see what changes he tries to make to the posting.

Absolutely! ANYTHING can happen on ebay, and something is never "yours" until exactly what was shown/described in the auction is sitting in front of you. Too many variables, seller situations like this, damage in shipping, post office could lose your "score", etc. I was a little surprised when you posted the details so close to winning the auction. I hope this works out for you. I did notice that it was up the day before and then relisted the day after when you bought it. Make sure you stay on top of everything. Just know that people will go to any length to screw you over toys. Some guys are just crazy.

i just found the auction he is a zero feedback seller which i never deal with, i know it was mentioned that he reposted it was it won? because it is no longer listed or shows up. if you leave him a negative he is screwed minus zero feedback is almost impossible to come back from in selling.

When I won the Dangard, I was got nervous about not getting the item when they didn't ship it for several days and thought I should have kept mum until I got it in hand. I know someone else here mentioned without names about a seller was contacted for a better offering on ebay.
Even if no one offered more, you could have people contacting the seller if they have other similar items for sale and could make them decide to do more research on what they just sold as well.
