SteveyDee68 Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 (edited) We’ve featured these particular items on here before, as the price gougers think these are definite winners to part fools from their cash… Purple People Eater Interestingly, most of the rhetoric in this seller’s description is in capitals, which means s/he is shouting at potential purchasers! What I love, though, is the “rare” description, mentioned possibly three times … whilst there are approx ten more for sale right now, all considerably cheaper! In fact, the cheapest, at £350 starting bid, hasn’t had any bids… so I am wondering how s/he thinks something priced at over four times that amount is going to sell! I also find the whole bit about donating to the Queen’s charities at bit disingenuous - after all, I suspect the seller has no intention of making a % donation from this sale to those charities, whereas mentioning them suggests that maybe that might possibly be the case. I messaged to ask about that… I don’t want to buy it. I don’t particularly like it as a model in that colour. But I think I might message every month to ask how it is going with actually selling it… Just for the hell of it! 😈 HOURS OF FUN!

Sjcm Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 Not sure this classes as madness but this guy's annoyed me on and off for years. Not so much the product (if you want to cover your train with self-adhesive labe!s that's your business), but the disingenuous description. You can get away with decals probably, but waterslide? If you put water anywhere near these you'll end up with a gummy mess. Love to know how many people have bought off him thinking they're getting transfers Stickers 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How on earth do you get them to stick down onto all the relief detail...and why would you want to lose it all under a cr@p label anyway?

I messaged this seller to point out that the description talked of the loco and not the box. He replied in three messages with a diatribe of vitriol. This punter's a nasty piece of work: Quote Simple answer is....what does storage box mean to you? And for instance....if you expect this to suit a Clock work princess. It will not look like the same model and there will be visual difference and you will have bought the wrong storage box. Type storage box into wiki pedia if that helps you understand english. Also, there are other Models of the Princess locomotives and their detailed descriptions will be different. Did you ever buy a garden gate going on the photo and expect the cottage ion the photo to come with it? Pure and simple is your lack of basic intelligence. Unless of course you'd like to point me towards where one can buy a working 00 loco and 3 coaches for £13.50. Any more i say to you will be educating you as you are obviuosly wrong a lot in life. You wont be able to buy anything off me after your unfounded wrong mong attack. Intelligent people buy off me. Thickos who go on the attack then expect politness cant buy my creations. It wont destroy your life but its sociopaths like you away. You know nothing about ebay. The photos show the box and what peoduct it is The boxes are not of a region or fropm an era or run on a specific voltage. Go away now. I have reported your attack and you are listed with ebay under seller protection. Simply put you were execting a loco and 3 coaches for £13.50 because you cant read properly or a shortcoming your end. Go sob to yourself im not interested. And yes...i do ripp into morons like you....what makes you think i should be nice. I am a creative, you are an attacker, a socioptah, a liar and you need bringing down sob sob. And all that from a point made about him describing the loco and not the box. I love that bit about me being banned from buying from him. Oh the agony! The pain!

Sjcm Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 Well he accuses you of destroying his boxes in the last message and the feedback mentions a destroyed box. Maybe he thinks you're involved in a cardboard box extortion ring? 😳 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swissrail Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 (edited) He also mentions my "gang of friends" although I never mentioned this forum at any point.
