Seems like this site is temperamental with file size

BlaineFromer wrote in Fake hologram stickers are not ligit. Dont buy them on ebay.:Nobody is “protecting anybody”
I’m simply just wondering why nobody is addressing the situation of
contacting the company that owns the rights to this

And secondly, when you type in this thread
And you talk text and it automatically goes
To the next line, it automatically capitalizes
The start of the next sentence
Rather than keep talking and make a paragraph readable

I just don’t understand why everybody’s looking for a fight
which is what it seems on here
Believe me, I can put boxing gloves on to in person
But again, when it comes to hiding behind the keyboard
Is the juice really worth the squeeze? Not to me, but perhaps
to you guys and more power to you

All this being said again I’ll reiterate, I’m happy with the five I bought
It’s a toy, and a fond remembrance of a past youth
But that’s the only reason I chimed in here people don’t seem to like my opinion
It’s just so strange

Blaine

PS I certainly do not speak “pigeon English“
However, typing and talk texting on this board may make it look at so

I retract my apology I made, due to the evidence now found further. You snake.

I was comparing your sticker pics to the ones from the seller, and I couldn't help but notice that the table used for the seller's pics is identical to your table. There's even a container on the table that looks eerily similar. Maybe I'm just being paranoid, but something doesn't add up. Why don't you come clean with us? You might feel better doing so, since it appears like you aren't being 100% truthful with us. Maybe you could tell us how you made the stickers or what printing service you used?

There are additional pictures on eBay, for anyone that wants to compare, just in case I'm mistaken.

Agreed, looks pretty clearly like the same table. So many fishy elements to this guy's story. Sudden appearance here right after Mark's posts, the old "referred by a friend" excuse, attempts to redirect the inquiry, supportive statements about the shady seller's friendly demeanor, questioning the accusations of fakery, etc. Sheesh.

Let mirth prevail!

Exactly. Fell right into the trap. And apparently none of the figurines pre-dates Y2K. Mars has more. Blaine my ***...

IMHO, take our lumps and move on. I get it, smoke screens are off-putting, but the listing is down. Its not the first time I have been burned, it wont be the last. Ive kept my resealed revised magic pack and Ill keep this.

And where the hell is mbassoc2003 when you need him? With his Latin talking buyer-be-ware, up my butt when I say something?

Kidding! Kidding! Leave it alone mbassoc2003. :)

I'd encourage you to file a fraud claim with ebay and send them back. That's really the only recourse we have against these types of sellers: one, you get your money back and out of their pocket and two, with a few returns for Fraud, their ebay status may be downgraded cause them to lose any seller bonuses and their account may be flagged (not sure if Ebay still does this or not).

Agreed, Ian must be hibernating.

I would have in that case, but i didnt see it at the time. The seller received two negative feedback for a sealed packs and was gone. I saw this when I thought about buying another pack a couple of months later. I think some folks steal established accounts btw. I know it was resealed because the cards just about fell out when I checked it again. No rare, several lands. Usually too much glue is a sign, this was too little I think. That really did suck.

Let me add: fill the FBI online form for postal fraud as well... it could help as we also have names and addresses.

I am sitting here asking myself why are these people
So paranoid. You asked for pictures of the units I received
I took them on a stand outside my office.
It’s actually sad now that I am reading this. I actually
Thought that there was a beginning of some sense of normalcy here.
In fact so far I have read that you all proclaimed that you have OCD,
Are paranoid and honestly from a newcomers perspective
Have very sad lives.
I tried here, I truly did. I was being a nice person and
Just giving an alternate view. You folks seem stuck in
Your ways and looking for something you’ll never get, a
Life. If this venue makes you happy so be it. If you feel
Big and bold assuming I am something or someone I am
Not more power to you. I just see a very sad situation here

And in regard to the figures as I plainly stated
I gave them to my children now and they added
Their own figures to them
Read the commentary I wrote. Sheesh you folks
Need a life. Not sure what happened here or to you
But honestly if this is all you got then I would suggest
To really life a life before it’s to late
I am being honest here People grow up.

We have other proofs you're the scammer. Justice is coming for you in NJ.

It bothers me when people lie. More so when they are caught and continue that lie as if it’s not happening.

Blaine. You have been weighted, measured and found wanting.

Stop hiding behind your ego and pretend persona and pay back the people you’ve scammed.

Comical, the delusional calling those who found him out, delusional. You’re a con artist and the evidence is stacked.

Let’s hope the force of the law hits you up the head real hard like.

I’m not entering any further into conversation with “Blaine” as he’s a tool, a liar and a scammer. Or at least trying to cover for the scammer. Im just glad the principled people here found you out.

Your proposed mob mentality is what really is comical
Especially when the person on this end of the conversation
Was just chiming in on a shared purchase situation
You can defend your antics all you’d like I have nothing
To defend here on my part. Some friendly advice..
Create a “healthy” relationship, then make a family
Your priorities may change a tad.
When you stay in the basement for too long and don’t
Venture out into the real world you become paranoid and
An angry person. LEARN TO LIVE its very helpful to cope
With life

Be well and please get help

I took the time to read this
I am sad about this
You seem to have issues
Help is available for you
Now my life is lesser
I weep for you and the future
It all seems so bleak
Please for the love of Kali get help
The world is here for you
You are not alone

If you hit a Rowsdower, you get to keep it.
