I got the following message from someone on Ebay today:
"hi there, in your description you say that that the figure has never been played with, only displayed. Then what the hell happened to its face. It looks like its been painted black! What kind of false advertisement is this!!" It is in regards to this item: Triad Omega Body Commando SEAL Kitbash Hot Toys DID ACE - eBay (item 170578984345 end time Dec-19-10 20:21:08 PST) Notice there are no bids from this person, so what is his problem? |

well what happened to its face? doesnt look "minty" looks like it got toy burn where it was rubbed quickly against pants or something to try to remove a scuff mark, only it melted the top layer of paint off. Ive done it to a couple figures by accident.

I dont understand when people who have no stake in the thing decide to go on about it. what's the point? just don't bid.
But yeah, what happened?

There's probably no bids because of his question?...It seems like a semi-reasonable reason, but what do I know people are weird that way...

Message # 2:
"This is bullshit! You shouldn't fool with people by saying that the item has never been played with. The picture clearly shows some damage from you freakin playing with it!" |

So a second message regarding the condition of what clearly looks like a played with toy? Yet no explanation of said playwear on your part. Maybe you should disclose in the auction why the figure looks that way. And here too, curious minds want to know

The person isn't even a bidder, so what does he care? |

Simply put, people don't like being taken advantage of or seeing others have that happen so that's why people who don't bid on auctions still ask questions and point out issues.
Look at any thread here where someone complains about the shipping on an item that hasn't been bid on. Now, I'm not saying that you're doing anything wrong at all, you provided a non-blurry picture and a detail list of what every item in said picture came from. Most sellers don't do that much. But I will say that typically when one says "This figure has never been played with, only displayed" they imply the figure is in a mint condition whereas your picture clearly shows some huge black mark in the middle of the figure's face. If the figure is supposed to have that (maybe face camo) then it would probably help if you mention that. If it is some damage, it would also help to mention that and not imply a mint figure. But like I said orginally, you provide a non-blurry picture and that's typically all buyers can hope for |
