But still it's odd that he sold the same miniature last week

As a seller and collector I have numerous rare and OOP figures in my collection more than once - so over a space of a couple of weeks I will - if I need the cash - sell them.

There is no point selling two of the same item in the same week as the price will be affected due to the availability.

If this was the 10th one he was selling - then yeah by all means be suspect - but I think its poor - when you have no evidence - to imply that someone is iffy as per this and the other recent eBay thread - now locked thankfully.

If you are worried - why does'nt someone ask him - that at least may give you a better grounding - or not - for your concern.

"Hi, is this a recast of the Very Rare Troll 3, or an original?"

"This? Naa, this is just a recast i did. only expecting about Â£3 for it, not the Â£30 if it was the real thing.!"

There are a hell of a lot of recasters out there, i know this for a fact. And for some one to have this mini twice in a week is very suspicious.

Sorry, i WILL be suspicious, cos there are a lot of w*nkers out there who know that there is money in BB mini's, and recast a lot of the rares. And as a collector, i am not happy about the situation.

If i was buying purely to make up teams, and i got them for about Â£1 a mini, then fine recasts are good. But for a collection..

Maybe I should bit on this one

Yeah. Hoomin's got the rest of the buyers scared so you may get a good price.

I got F*CKED on a troll 3 auction. I think Firebreather now has my Troll (I was going to give it to Norse) in his collection because he could make the guy deliver it.

I guess you and I have different definitions of "evidence"> I don't need crap in my hands to know I've been mistreated. I don't believe Indy does either. I believe that there was more than enough evidence to suggest that shill bidding DID take place. That locking statement was purely garbage in my opinion.

I agree there are a lot of recasters out there - have been caught out myself - but not sure how you are helping the situation by slating someone over here - if you believe its a recast get the auction pulled or notify GW - who will soon pull it - thatâ€™s my solution and works every time -I'm as pissed as the next person about it - but moaning over here doesnâ€™t solve the problem just means some other non forum user gets stung

As for blocking the other thread - whatâ€™s wrong with that - no evidence - no proof and a forum owner that could end up in the poop for inaccurate bollocks
