Wow, you know what, I supposed to be one of the victims of that auction (only 25 dutchs, as I remember, but as the auction ended, he said there were few more for sell), but at last minute, I decided not to take it. I felt strange with the seller, since I was not out bidder and he still send me a invoice.

: Around last Christmas, I won in a Dutch Auction on Ebay for one of approx 40 Toys McCoy Indy "Store Display" model figures from a seller's "contact" in Singapore, according to the description they had been store display models that had been gathered up sell.

: They were all supposedly loose mint, however a few had some accessories missing which were to be recast in the Toys McCoy Molds, and that they would be ready in the new year (early January).

: The price was good $250, compared to $800+ (at the time).

: To make a long and very frustrating story short, None of the approx. 40 auction winners have received their figures or have gotten refunds.
: Currently one of the "victims" of this scam has organized legal action against the seller.

: On a brighter note, I have since bought a Toys McCoy Indy and have it on display in my bookcase (what a figure!!).

: Hope it all works out for you guys!
