i have bought a vip celsior from him and paid it dec.19th and paid for 2-3 weeks for the shipping and still haven't recieved anything.

some of you had bad experience with him?

i'm not sure i will buy again from him

[prortiz80]

i never had a problem with him sure it takes awhile to get here but u got to understand where the package ia coming from and where its going it might take alittle bit more time than others

[El Krammito]

i bought one set of wheels from him with no problems.

[intuned]

ok, i guess i'll wait a bit then.

still long when i paid for fast shipping

[jano11]

I bought kits from him, twice. No problems untill now. Shipping might take 3-4 weeks.

[NOMADGAMER]

he has very good prices, so i waited a little longer as his shipping is slow.

I bought so many from him with no problems. The shipping time takes awhile, but you have to understand that he's located in Hong Kong. You can get it quicker, but you have to shell out for the more expensive shipping. My orders took about 3 weeks to arrive.

besides because of christmas, post services have been a bit saturated, which can even delay even more the shipping...

Bought a kit from him last September, it arrived about 2 weeks later. In December I bought another 2 kits, but those still haven't arrived. I contacted him and after checking the address he offered to resend the kits. Quite good service I'd say.

I've had two transactions with him. Both were multiple "buy now" completed auctions. The first one was successful although he initially "forgot" to include everything that was purchased. He did send a second package with the missing items. That was about a year ago. The second transaction was started before Christmas for over $200.00 again I received only a partial shipment. That was over a week ago now and I've tried to email him three or four times and have gotten no reply. I would steer clear of this seller not only has he shorted my order and will not respond to my email but when you do get the items they will no doubt come to you rapped in paper without a box and be completely crushed like my last partial shipment did.

Good Luck,

I refuse to purchase from again, he won't answer my e-mails, and even when you pay for the express shipping (should take roughly 4 days) your lucky if you get it in three weeks, I would steer clear of him.

[Spike2933]

if shipping takes a month, something is wrong.

I buy from all over the world and from across the country, I get my items in 2 weeks and a half weeks the latest.

this guy seems not to really care and is just trying to suck money out of people

[ozracer]

I have bought off him before and never again he was a pain in the arse. Models had bits missing and were 3 months late when i paid air freight. I lodged a dispute with ebay and left negative feedback and got some money back which was good through pay pal but his service is atrocious. I think his prices are cheap but he gets you on postage. You pay air freight and he is obviously sending surafce mail so he make up the margin on freight. He has so many transactions up to 20 or 30 on each day so he can hide his negative feedback quite easily. But if you search back through his whole history he has heaps of negative feedback. I WILL NEVER DEAL WITH HIM AGAIN.

He makes up money on the shipping costs?!
Where the hell do you get a Fujimi enthusiast model for 11€ + 8€ shipping , that's 19 euros?!
Or a Tamiya 911 GT1 for 6+8=14€???
Tell me and I'lll buy there next time!

It's cheaper than ordering it directly from the cheapest store in Japan (and even from there you'll pay 7-8 euros for SAL shipping (10-14 days).

Sure he is a bit careless, rarely uses a cardboard box, but he always wraped all the parts in bubble wrap and never had a problem with the kits.
He also replaces broken or lost kits.

I've seen way worse than this from european eBay sellers!

Appart from the occasional lucky bid you have 0,1% chance to get a better deal.

I'd agree upon the thought that many e-bay sellers make money on a higher shipping rate than is actually needed, but as long as the total price is low I don't mind. Bare in mind that E-bay is charging the seller upon the price of the item, not on the total price including shipping.

I bought from Bboykorea several times and never had any problems.
