Probably the result of the various eBay bots people use - and yeah I've seen a lot of miss-matched pictures.

In all honesty, if you check his listings, they are full of mistakes.

That in of itself is probably enough of a 'red flag' to think twice before bidding - maybe.

That's actually pretty cool, though it looks more Catchacan than Cadia. I'd even have no problem with someone running it in a Guard army, even though it should be marine.

Yeah, I actually think the conversion and painting is pretty fair on that land speeder. Only dumb thing is the gunner not actually manning the gun. Price isn't horrible, even.

I bought this, and I almost feel bad. I think what they put as the "buy it now" price was supposed to be the starting bid price.

This auction was up a month ago (same picture) in the US, so I'm guessing this is a Chinese recaster. However, for $21 I'll risk recasts for an Armorcast Warhound, OOP Rhino, and a Dreamforge Gabriel Knight.

Ive seen plenty of auctions from china with similar account names as that, selling whole armies for 20 dollar. I am guessing its a complete scam and you wont get anything.

If so, you will get your money back through, especially if you pay with PayPal, which now gets you 180 days of protections - conditions apply though, and be sure that you're covered before purchasing!

eBay 'only' gives you 30 days, and many overseas shippers will tell you it might take that long - or longer - for the package to arrive...

Yeah, I definitely paid with Paypal. It's the way to go if I do ebay. Get burned once and you learn really fast.

This does currently look like the typical cereal box stompa that I've seen a few of in this thread, but at least this is listed as a "Work in progress" and may actually end up being a really epic model, especially as it comes with a (supposedly) pro-paint job as part of the sale. I'd love to see what the finished product ends up looking like.
