So I open up my Ebay package 2 weekends ago, and instead of receiving 2005 Oktober Guard Schrage, they sent me 2005 Oktober Guard Diana. Diana had sold for more than double what I had paid for Schrage. So, at first I'm super excited, because I don't have Diana, and it's a figure I've been after for a while. Then reality sets in that this person will surely be contacting me wanting the figure back. Sure enough, the following Monday they contact me. I let them know that I'm perfectly happy with the figure they sent me. Of course, they make it clear that they really need it back. So I did the right thing and sent the figure back. It felt like a gut punch mailing it back though.
The company/person made it right though, by sending me 3 extra modern figures to make up for the error. I'm not really a big fan of the modern figures, personally, but one of them was a 50th anniversary Beach Head complete. I must say, it's a pretty damn nice looking figure. All's well that ends well I suppose. |

It's good to know that good things happen to good people.

Tough decision but you did the right thing and having a clear conscience is more valuable than any action figure. God bless you.

You did the the right thing and you were rewarded.
Double good on you! I sold a mostly complete crusader with payload and box on eBay. At the same time I was selling a astro-viper and countdown both complete and with full uncut cardbacks.I was going to make it one big lot but decided to post the other two figures individually. But I forgot that I put the other two in the Crusader box. I realized my mistake after I had sent it off. I tried to contact the guy but I never got a reply. The crusader box has "$7.00" written in black marker and the astro-viper had an action force card back. Last edited by Indiana Joe; 05-16-2017 at 03:48 PM.. |

The real moral test would be sending back the JoeCon Daina.

I like your decision. We need more people who love their neighbors as themselves!

The collector community (and the world for that matter) could use more folks like you and less repackers, crooks, and cheats
