My Entire 25th Collection On eBay

+1 on that for you guys who don't know him, on top of being a stand up guy, CIAD sold me a ARAH Wolverine a while back and had the same issue with shipping. Needless to say he made it right regardless of e-bay's BS and all was well in the end.

As a matter of fact, my CG is standing on CIAD's Wolverine in my sig pic.


Bid with confidence boys and girls! CIAD I'll try and help you if I can bro, f-in' Pay Pal still has me locked out b/c of their anti-second amendment BS though. :(

Sorry to hear about the money crunch....
Are you getting out of collecting or are you just selling off one of each figure (I hope you're not calling it quits)

Wave 1 - 9 Single Cards
Wave 5 - 9 International Single Cards
San Diego Exclusives
Mail In Doc

I'll be listing Comic Packs, 3 Packs, 5 Packs & Vehicles this evening.

If you're looking for a figure, there's no doubt I have it listed. From Yellow Stalker to Diaper Crotch Beach Head, they're all there!

Well, not all...There's no way I could ever sell my Destro/Iron Grenadier Collection.

So go check it out, bid high & thanks for looking!

Would help you out, but I don't have paypal! I know that I would be interested in your exclusives and some of the other one's. Hope that your situation gets better and I know that the "Tankers" here will help out. They always do. Good Luck on your auction!

Guys, thanks for the kind words & well wishes. As for the insane shipping, I've added a disclaimer to each listing.

As for those who are unable to bid due to PayPal, sorry guys, but at this time I cannot run with Money Orders. I will be moving very quickly here, so I wouldn't want "you" to mail a payment and then have to wait it out while my mail is forwarded & all that jazz. Thanks for your understanding!

Ed, it kills me to have to sell'em, man. As for selling "one of each", that's all I have. I think the only doubles I have are of Crimson Guards and an extra open bat/snow serpent. As is, the only figures I've kept are my IGs (and all versions of Destro). I'm not getting completely out of collecting, but my collection is definitely going in a different direction.

Again, everyone, thanks for the kind words & well wishes.

Hello, thanks for waiting and welcome to eBay Live Help! My name is Frances. How may I help you?
1:36:46 PM cobra.island.arms.dealer
Hi Frances! Thanks for your help! Here's the issue: Many potential buyers have contacted me in regards to my current listings. Some are receiving exact shipping quotes via eBay (1 - 2 lbs), whereas others are receiving quotes for $20 - $40! (yikes!). What is causing this issue/error?
1:37:43 PM Frances S.
I appreciate you contacting us about this. I'll be happy to assist you with that!
1:37:49 PM cobra.island.arms.dealer
Great! Thank You!
1:38:18 PM Frances S.
Do you have the item number handy?
1:38:33 PM cobra.island.arms.dealer
Uh..actually, there are 63 item numbers. :(
1:38:40 PM cobra.island.arms.dealer
it's against all of my current listings.
1:38:43 PM cobra.island.arms.dealer

These will be okay. Thanks for providing me the item number. I'll quickly check this for you.
1:40:25 PM cobra.island.arms.dealer
Thanks, Frances!!! I really appreciate your help!
1:43:33 PM Frances S.
Thank you for staying with me.
1:43:46 PM cobra.island.arms.dealer
Oh, no problem! You're the one doing all the work!
1:45:37 PM Frances S.
Just to clarify, since this is a calculated listing, your buyers may come from different locations. Are they aware they will get different shipping costs?
1:46:05 PM cobra.island.arms.dealer
yes, they are.
1:46:11 PM cobra.island.arms.dealer
thing is, they're shipping to the U.S.
1:46:17 PM cobra.island.arms.dealer
shipping shouldn't be more than roughtly $8 & change
1:46:35 PM cobra.island.arms.dealer
some people have gotten quotes from Michigan to Ohio (one state away) as high as $38.

1:47:17 PM Frances S.
Wow, that is really high.
1:48:01 PM cobra.island.arms.dealer
Agreed That's why I was pretty nervous, because I don't want anyone to think I'm trying to gouge on shipping, nor do I want my listings cancelled due to fraudulent shipping charges.
1:49:33 PM cobra.island.arms.dealer
Each listing was set at Priority Mail Service, 1 - 2 lbs shipping, plus $1 for handling. At the most, I think the highest rate would be to California, which would be around $8.90 (well, $7.90 + handling)
1:51:32 PM Frances S.
We have heard that some are having discrepancies with the shipping cost. we are working to resolve it as quickly as possible . The best way I can suggest to you is to contact the buyer and tell them that you may just adjust the shipping cost in the invoice you will be giving them.
1:52:06 PM cobra.island.arms.dealer
Sounds like a plan. I've also added a disclaimer to each listing advising that shipping would not be anywhere near that high amount. Hopefully people still have trust in the world!
1:52:17 PM cobra.island.arms.dealer
On that note, thanks for your help, Frances. It's greatly appreciated! Have a great afternoon!
1:53:07 PM Frances S.
Have a great afternoon as well. You are actually doing the right thing on these items. I wish you all the best with this listing and with all your future eBay transactions! Is there anything else I can help you with?
1:53:20 PM cobra.island.arms.dealer
No, you've been great! Thanks again for your help!!
1:53:32 PM Frances S.
