The name is katrina_sy. Sells a lot of joes it seems with free shipping from hong kong. I bought a fig off them that says it was shipped but then there is a fig posted from this person that is the exact same one I won with same description.

HK sellers tend to have many many of the same figure. Also shipping can take a very long time.

Yeah, free shipping on a figure less than $3. That probably would not be a fast EMS ship.

I can speak from experience that I will re-use an auction photo if I get that same figure again after I sold it. This is probably what happened ...

The seller sold a Shock Trooper (for example) and then re-listed it using the same photo rather than go through all the hassle of taking another photo, uploading it and re-listing it. This way, they can just hit the "relist" button and the auction is live in 2 seconds.

I bought a fig from a HK seller on the 11th and just received him today. Now I also bought a triwing screwdriver from an HK on the 4th and still have not received it. Bottom line is it takes a bit of time for it to reach you. check their FB if they have a lot chances are your going to get your item. No worries man.

I actually buy from HK sellers all the time and they tend to re-use the same pic over and over. Shipping takes about a month. The one time I got a badly damaged figure from an HK seller he replaced and told me to keep the figure that was damaged and was really good about the whole thing.The only places I buy from is the US Canada and Hong Kong

I buy from HK and China regularly. The guys i get stuff from have loose figures in the 100s they get them direct from the factory. It normally takes about 3 weeks to get to me Australia.

I hear the slow shipping international shipping complaint from US sellers all the time, but here in Canada I actually get the figs from HK MUCH faster than anything from the States which usually takes two-three weeks. Most stuff I've bought from HK has arrived within the week.

And yeah, they keep re-using the same pics and description cause their English isn't the best.If you bought on E-Bay and used PayPal I wouldn't worry, you're covered 100%, you're only screwed on E-Bay if you are a seller, that's when they don't give a shit about you.

i only buy from sellers in the US, i dont want to here the i lost your package story. stick to are country mate and you should be fine.

Funny, as in over ten years of E-Bay buying I've only heard that story three times and everytime it came from a US seller...lol.

I have bought most of my ROC/POC stuff from the Far Eastern sellers (US sellers' prices don't seem to reflect the shop prices everyone here is talking about!) and it takes anywhere from 10 days to a month for things to arrive in the UK.

I should add that the things I have bought from the USA usually take 10 days+
