Hmmm...

I think $99 is a little much but I would do $50 just to have it.

It is not a panel off of the Millennium Falcon or Starship Enterprise.

You would have to be a big 1/18 fan, or of the aircraft to get these.

Not saying they are bad, but certainly not a cheap 1/18 "accessory"

Both are sold now. :(
60.00 wasn't too bad, but the 18.00 bucks to ship it was the deal breaker for me.
Anyone from our board buy the 2nd one?

YT - which one did you get?
Silver or Yellow?

I believe it is metal on the front, yellow on the back. I think for the size of it, shipping the is fair. I have 3 unique 21st items now: a bomber jacket from their convention, a test shot of the WD-63 and now this. I am gonna hang it in my shop. I like this kind of stuff. I wish I could afford some GI Joe swag like this, but I will settle for 21st.

Try being a collector from elsewhere than the continental US. :lol:

The panel showed up with scratches all over the paint on the yellow side. I am not sure if it was due to the poor packaging or that way before it shipped. The seller is giving me a hard time to boot. Totally ruined this for me... :(

YT,
Sorry it showed up scratched. Is the metal side at least able to be displayed?
If it's too bad, be sure to lodge a complaint with Ebay about it.

I just wanted to give everyone a warning about this USARULES seller. I had a really bad experience with him and wanted to alert my fellow fans. As I stated the panel showed up with damage. Although it was poorly packed, I can't see how one side would be scratched up with no damage to the box and no paint transfers. The seller refused to do anything other than what would totally benefit him and I feel he works the system to his advantage, which is how he is able to maintain good feedback. I did end up leaving him negative feedback, which was removed by eBay because I said I was going to leave it in a PM and apparently that is a violation of their policy. :roll: This individual was an executive at 21st Century which just makes the whole thing more frustrating. I am obviously a fan (or at least I was) and to be treated in such a shady manner really speaks volumes to me. I get shafted (in fact I got a warning for leaving negative feedback) and he walks away scott free. I could go into more detail but I will just leave it at that and with a warning to BEWARE.

That is ridiculous about not being able to leave negative feedback. :twisted:

So what if you mentioned you would if the situation wasn't fixed. That is what it is there for. :roll:

Seller sounds like he is being difficult, and over a cheap item. Would not want to deal with anybody who is worried about a few dollars on a sale.

Thanks for the heads up, YT.

YT:
Sorry to hear that you had problems with this seller concerning the beat up panel you received. On the contrary, I purchased a total of three from him and the first two, "Old Crow" and "BBD" were exactly as he said they were. They were used, I new that, and had few corners bent, an easy fix. the third, "Rall", would you believe, the USPS sent it from California to Washington State, via Maryland and North Carolina. When it did arrive, I was amazed it was in one piece. Again, this one was as he said it was.
I had no problems with him, he even offered a refund on the third if it did not arrive.
I am shocked that he would treat you the way he did.
I was interested in the Ultimate Soldier one when he dropped the price, but was short of funds at the time. Again, I am sorry that he treated you the way he did.
