Small Scale Military Headquarters

Seems to be a flood a 1:18 SS on Ebay recently.

I wonder where they came from.......

Sad thing is that somebody is actually biting on these.

MD anyone?

I think we all saw this coming after the MD sale.Looks like this guy can plan for retirement after selling 1 set.

LOL.....

The only good thing is that eventually the rush to put up goods from MD on Ebay will most likely flood the market and then you get the really good deals and cheaper shipping than MD.


Who is ready for some Pathers and 88's to show up?

Hey guys check this auction out!!!

$100 bucks or best offer for the SS set.

I would like to challenge all of our members on the board to submit offers of $9.95 and put "monkey depot" in the message box.

Just to give this guy a reality check.

If this is a members auction then I would doubly encourage it.

$9.95 offer will be automatically rejected but at least maybe he will get the message.

I think this seller is trying to make a huge profit if he did indeed purchase this set at $9.95. Keep in mind though that this set kept creeping up in price once the initial offering of $9.99 was over and this seller may have not purchased it for $9.95.

One guy from Germany bought a set. I think that is a little illegal there to have SS stuff isn't it?

This sort of topic seems to come up on a regular basis on many different forums. I say more power to the guys reselling the items that they got cheap from MD. Buy low, sell high. That's what the free market is all about. If someone pays exhorbitant prices on eBay for items that can be had cheaper then it's their own fault. As long as the seller lives up to his end of the deal and provides an accurate description of the item that he's selling then he hasn't done anything unethical no matter how high the price goes.

Many people wouldn't hesitate to sell something at a high price that they were given or got cheaply from a yard sale but they somehow think it's wrong to sell a new item that was bought cheaply at retail. I've been buying some of the clearance XD items from WM and listing them on eBay. I check what similar items have been selling for recently and then price my items accordingly. If I make a profit and the buyer gets something he wants, I don't see the problem.

I agree. It's only worth what someone will pay for it.

Free markets and capitalism are great when it's in your favor. Not like my GM shares that I purchased for $40

Well giving this guy a bit of a reality check he has at least dropped his price down to $75 which is more in line with the actual value of these sets or least until Monkey Depot blew them out.
