Why are always the bargains get lost or are suddenly unavailable ??? (1 Viewer)

Is it only me or does it happen to you guys as well?
First I got the KC Pharaoh's Statues AE012 as "buy now" for $125 - it got "lost" in transport. Seller refundet the money immediately (what I found very strange) - while at the same time a AE012 went for over $200 on ebay.

Now I found a LAH061 set very well priced here in Europe - for half of the price of the last one which was sold in the US. I bought it and suddenly get the information from the seller that it was a mistake. He doesn't have a LAH061!?! ^&confuse It was a LAH041 which he sold in a different auction !!!

I buy lots of goods in the US, in China and else. But it seems that only the bargains are the ones which disappear or are suddenly unavailable!?

That's because if a hard to find set at half the normal price; it's too good to be true. One way to help with this is to make sure the Seller has posted a photo of the actual model he is selling and not a stock photo. That makes it a bit harder to screw around. But beware of the too good to be true deals.

I second Terry here. Now Oliver since your are in Europe, buying items in the US is still a great bargain for you, thanks to the strong Euro...:wink2:
