I have no means in promoting this auction.
but I just have one question... WOULD YOU BUY SOMETHING LIKE THIS IF YOU SAW THIS IN STORES? this guy clearly states that the figure has been tampered with and that it might possibly be a variant. obviously its not. HERES THE LINK http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...ksid=p3907.m29 |

The Destro figure I have listed has a silver head when it is the blade Destro figure that is supposed to have a gold head. I did not glue it on. Yes, the package is destroyed and is stapled back together. Did I Do This.....NO!! I bought the figure at Wal-Mart about a week ago. I saw it and could not pass it up even though it was damaged. I don't even care if someone did buy the figure,switch the heads and then take it back. The fact of the matter is that it is supercool and I have never seen it before. I am not in the rip-off business and will always tell you about the condition of the items I sell. What if this was the scenario....Some kid who knows a lot about GI Joe saw this figure and had no money. He then tried to take the figure out of the package and run-off with it for free. He got spooked and ran out without. The kid wanted the figure sooo bad but Mr. Wal-Mart was on his tail. Sucks for him. The Wal-Mart employee then took the figure to the back, put a couple staples in it, and put it back on the shelf to sell......If this is the case, I found a Hasbro gem and now I am sharing it with you guys. I think most of you guys or girls would have done the same. Anyway, please do not send any more statements wasting my time about me customizing this figure. |

While there are some questionable phrases by this seller concerning the item, there is ample wording about the condition of the figure and pics to back it up. While not, at least to me, completely honest in his auction (it isn't a variant so don't play it up like that), it isn't a scam. Sellers can see what they are getting, and he has described the item accurately as well.

Looks to me that someone wanted both a Chrome-headed Five Pack Destro and a Gold PDD all while saving a few bucks. I honestly can't believe that Wal-mart would take this back, but I've been wrong about them before.
I do challenge however, that if it was so "super cool" as he claims in the description, why would he put it up on ebay? |
