This auction just popped up since IJ is on my wishlist. That's a rather pathetic feedback rating, don't you think?

ebay.com link: ws

Stay away.

#3 12 years ago

Hmmm !!!

Just wondering ,,..

#4 12 years ago

I'm sure black rose would sell ya his!

#5 12 years ago

When it goes out , The Deal will be Cash & a Trade for my IJ... I haven't had The Shadow or GNR yet .. and a few other's ,, Not really lOOk-n for any Stern's unless it's a BDK . I've already had an offer trade IJ for a HUO Spiderman Red ( 235 games played ) with web'd side-Rail's + 500.00 cash..

It looks like the vast majority of their negative feedback is in their lack of communication with the buyer, which is really bad thing. Plus a feedback of 90% is absolutely terrible!

#7 12 years ago

they want 5K and yet can't be bothered to post more than one pic? + it's a pic taken from across the room. Only purchase in person (that's my motto anyway)

Yea I agree 90% positive feedback on such a big purchase is living on the edge.

#9 12 years ago

$3500 and the reserve isn't met? Pass.

Scroll down Ben, there's six pics.

Did you read this guys Feedback?? Unless you live VERY close and can go there...Forgetaboutit!

#12 12 years ago

I dont believe I have ever seen a feedback so low. Certainly risky. The pin should be a No Fear.

#13 12 years ago

Yeah, 90% on eBay is a terrible rating. It's hard to find someone that doesn't have a 100 or at least a 99%. As someone else noted, most of the bad feedback is lack of communication. Some of the positives even note the item isn't as described.

#14 12 years ago

If I had 90% feedback, I'd probably just open a new account under my wife's name. You are better off with zero feedback than 1642 feedback @ 90%.

Their negative feedback makes it sound like once you make the purchase, it might already be sold, or they won't respond to any questions.

With that much money on the line, in person is the only way to buy that pin.

Yeah man, other than that, it looks "legit". Go check it out, things change in person, specially if you got cash.

Cash in person is the only way to roll.

#18 12 years ago

No way if you were thinking of having it shipped.

Absolutely yes if you can go check it out, pay cash and leave with it in your vehicle...eBay feedback means nothing if this is the case.

Of course both answers ignore the fact that he's at $3500 and that isn't enough for him. Overpriced. Walk away.

Agreed. The sad fact is that IJ is going up in value quicker and quicker.

I've seen that game listed before - I think he has been trying to sell it for a few months now. Based on the pics it does not look like a 5k game to me. But if you could get him to do a deal outside of ebay and don't mind a three hour drive one way...
