Yappy's collection was handled by ebayer sellers-on-wheels (US seller at the time) a couple years ago, and that's just the original saved listing. Dufus even left in "entire collection up for bid!" with only one item on list, and 0 feedback. Not a good idea to bid, but fine to report as scam or ask seller crazy questions.

Zero feedback, located in Thailand, stole pics etc...sounds like a perfect auction. ;-)

It is a scam. I tried to buy the same one at a starting bid 0f $100 back in Nov. I won the auction at $350 at 1am. After paying the guy, he sent me a bogus tracking number. Of course item never arrived, dude would not contact me at all when messaged, and Paypal nearly didn't refund me, until they investigated and let me know it was a scam. Do not bid/buy these Tetsujins out of Thailand or Indonesia with these sellers, with no rating. Take it from me and my incident, they are thiefs.

such listing is one of the most common tetsujin 28 scams on ebay, anyone on the lookout for tetsujin 28 on ebay should take note of the pictures used which are exactly the same as those used in the original and legit auction conducted by seller-on-wheels, as mentioned by jon, (except this time, the seller is clever enough to crop off the boarders of the pictures) and be especially mindful when the name yappy or erik ando-yeap is used in any auctions.

This is why we have to start faded watermarking in the CENTER of all our pictures, here, and on eBay. I have a small free program that does it and will format thousands of images at a time.
I recently used this to protect myself on eBay when selling my Robotech/macross collection. Using the central faded watermark, on a 0 degree or 45 degree angle makes it non-crop able by scammers.
