Is this Fake Ghost Obi????

[Carol]

My daughter purchased the Dark Wing Duck set for around $35. She hasn't taken them out of bubble-wrap but I already told her to email the seller - Sinodolls
SO, even if they have a serial number they are scrappers?

Sinodolls only sells scrappers so unfortunately there will be something defective about them.

ok i didnt buy from either from them but (got to love that word) i did by an animation 1 unopened box from hong kong and when it came it was seal in box and foil but when i opened it on the bottom no serial number but it had initals DL any one know anything

side note the box did have a hong kong disney land price tag for 75.00 im not to sure but i think im good thought i would ask

If it was sealed in the box and still sealed in the foil the it's a real vinyl. Now oddly enough it seems that vinyls sold outside the states don't have a serial number but a code like yours

ok thanks i really got worred there for a min thanks

Did a quick search for Sinodolls and it brought me here. I thought they seemed fake. Funny how eBay is so money hungry the allow these guys to contuie to rip people off.

Thank you all for these posts. I was looking at buying some stuff from each of these sellers. This saved me a lot of aggravation

There is a whole lot of scrapper ebay sellers to watch out for - there is a list in the first post of this thread - http://vinylnation.net/forums/showth...-watch-out-for

Thanks! I have bookmarked that thread now. I will always check that before making ebay purchases.

I just bought a ghost obi wan from eBay from zelda007 and worried that is fake. The serial number is run a little on the lip of the edge. Anyone ever hear about this seller?

I just noticed that seller has another Ghost Obi for sale and wondered if that was a bad sign for the one you bought - I mean who has two for sale within a week?

Also I notice they only use stock photos (not of the actual vinyl), the description is a bit over the top, all their listings are private and there is one feedback that says they sold a vinyl with a defect not stated - they might be legit but I am not sure I would be OK with buying from them.

[Ghostobi]

He said he invested in them and bought a bunch of trays an is that he has like 6 ghosts and is selling some of the ones he has to pay for his taxes.

[lintman]

He has three ghost obi's for sale right now. His description lists that many of them have production defects. I don't think I trust this guy at all.

Here are the pictures of mine it seems ok.

The serial number is on the edge and there's a chip from the ear but that's all I can tell.

[swlady]

Don't know if this helps but I got both of my ghost obi's from DLR and both have a chip on the ear but both serial numbers are not on the edge.

[Boggerbret]

I want one sooo Bad......just don't know if I want to Shell out 150-200 for one.........but i guess buying a case for 280+ just for one is a bit silly....but then again I would have 23 more!! lol

[Chronotrigger]

I want to buy one of these on ebay. I've been noticing one seller has sold at least 6 or 7 of them if not more (from the states). Should I be concerned?

[tandedobbs]

Sorry - that is definitely a scrapper.

Seller 'mybjd' and seller 'sinodolls' are either one and the same or are both scrapper sellers - they regularly use the same photos for their vinylmations and are not to be trusted.

Thank you for the heads up! I'll avoid these two on Ebay.
So terrible!

There is another thread with a more comprehensive list of scrapper dealers - I will bump it

Add bootyfinder to the list. He is careless enough to use the actual pics, and the vinyl obviously has no serial number. The starting bid is too low as well. The worst thing is, there are currently 4 bidders for the item.
