Disgraceful E-Bay Auction

Well, technically speaking, if it is in fact a ToyFare version, it really has not seen the inside of a ToyFare...but you want to know how you can be sure? A special secret...the ToyFare ones have a sticker that says ToyFare...the TRU ones do NOT.

Someone should ask the guy to show a pic of the package.

I was reacting more to the sellers claim "Exclusive Kermit in Tuxedo Figure - IN HAND!
Not Sold in Stores!" ANd we all know it was. I am not to worried since he has one day left, and only one $2.50 bid.

Since Ken is here, I will ask him this, since it does relate to Ebay....
My understanding is

1) you are going to tabulate the number of orders for the VC Beaker

2) You are going to contact the manufacturer in China and have more made to accomidate the orders....

I think a good way to kill off the Ebay sellers who are trying to syphon off your goodwill would be to have the club figures in a different packaging, or somehow different than the WW ones at the convention.

That might discourage them a bit!
Just an idea.

The Same Seller

He says this error figure has no hat, but under tha accessories he lists the top hat!
He is probably wondering why no one wants to pay more than 3x retail for a defective toy.

that same guy is also selling 2 Piggy exclusives as "Not Available in Stores." What a shmuck.

Yes.

Yes.

Really no way to police it. Besides, the packaging is expensive since it is a small run. New film would just up the price.
