    Again please don't send any hate towards this person. The point of this video is to inform others about this person and red flags that come with purchasing any collectible items.
    It just sucks that it was from one of our own. As well as thinking about it more I probably should have blurred out the name and that was a bad judgment call. All I can ask is for no one to bully this person.

    Glad you were smart enough to beat the scam! Also, this is why I highly recommend people to ask for some kind of time stamp with the pop to add some extra proof that it’s actually in their hands & always be cautious with purchases. Make sure you have protection incase anything ever goes wrong. 😊

    Also closest I got to getting scammed (not bragging, I tend to buy from stores I trust for this reason, only ever made 2 Facebook purchases and a handful of eBay ones on pops way too new or too cheap to be fakes) was someone in a group who was refusing to do good and services for a Wynonna earp chase. I see 1 red flag and I don't have time to deal with more.

    Thank God for PayPal and eBay customer service. My daughter brought me a young Carl and Ellie 2 pack for Christmas last year only to suspect it was a fake when it arrived. Not sure how much the seller actually charged for it, but she challenged it's authenticity and was supported by PayPal and eBay and her money was returned to her account. In the end she paid £20 because she knew I really wanted it.

    I am glad i was able to pick a 7/10 damaged one for 100 euros. And it was legit because i ask the seler to send a photo with the paper with that days date, and we acepted paypal goods and services. For those interested in this kind of deals this trick with the date and first name on a paper next to the pop clears the problem of seller that use photos form other adds.

Luckily I found about this "Vanilla Prepaid Card Scam" early before I made the transaction but I want people to be aware of this and I shall no longer be using Mecari!

    @Shugabug657 3 года назад

    Unfortunately I've had similar issues 3 times. 1st was buying a fake pop at a big comic convention, was trying to double up on a pop which I already had but when I compared them it was a fake (Only paid retail)
    2nd was buying upside down spider-man on Facebook marketplace the guy shipped it in a satchel and came damaged so I was able to get my money back.
    The lastest one was different and expensive. The fugitive toys Spider-man pop was real but it was placed in a regular Spider-Man box with a replacement sticker. It's my fault for not realising the sticker was a fake as I was making sure the pop was real and with the Funko app and ppg both had various release dates it was only after receiving the pop and getting in contact with Fugitive Toys for confirmation that I was able to confirm the box was switched with a replacement sticker.

  • @duaneswitzer295
    @duaneswitzer295 3 года назад +1

    You already know I don't mind helping out on authenticating as well, every pop has its own unique tell it sucks tbh all the research involved. Anime and horror I feel are the most common replicas you will find. You know I can relate, I hate it as well always someone trying to get over on someone else just to make a buck, and please to who all that read this watch for sticker swaps I see it everyday on Mercari (example)Sage Mode Naruto date stamp should be OG 2016, 2017, and 2019 if u want a true GameStop exclusive.. Sorry that happened Donte..

I've only been collecting since July but when I found all those Ad Icons at that rummage sale and then found out how much some of them are worth I bought Hard stacks for them and in fact the GITD Boo Berry is in a hard stack and now a safety deposit box. I just found the Evel Knievel and TLC Chili chases and first thing I did was put them in Hard stacks. Same with Simon Bar Sinister. It's bad enough there are scammers out there but from within the Community and a subscriber at that is beyond dispicable.
