Has anyone ever bought from here, and if so how good are they?

They are showing good prices with absurdly low shipping from Japan.

Thanks, Thom.

It sounded familiar (not in a good way), so I typed "jpfigures" into the forums search box and all kinds of negative stuff came back. For example:

In addition to doing a global search of the forums, the Straight Shooters List and Blacklist threads in the For Sale section are good places to start. Both are kept up to date.

Good call; money is hard enough to come by without some rip-off laying in wait for people to burn. I once ordered a V1.0 1/60 Yamato VF-1 and got burned on ebay. I couldn't challenge it because I ordered it on my friend's computer (I didn't have one at the time)  and his PC crashed. All my stuff (including ebay purchase poof) was lost, ebay sided with the seller. This was back in the early '00's, so no chance of ever seeing it. Would have been nice to have a Yammie.

Anyhoo: yeah, looks like these clowns aren't trustworthy Thom.

Well, that decides that! Shame too, because that would have been a nice price!

I will steer well clear. Much thanks, fellas!

I got burned to the tune of $140.00 US.  They are hot garbage.  Find a legit alternative for your peace of mind.

This worked good with the last site! So I typed Wahwah model shop into the search window here and didn't get anything.

So my question to the MWF community is if anyone has bought from them and if they are reputable?

Thanks again!

I tried (on Ebay and that site..  first they cancelled my purchase because they said my address was wrong,  but e-mailed me that The Post was shut down in Hong Kong (completely), finally they said they sold out and just wanted to keep interest in their store!    GARBAGE!

Making a note of that as well; I finally got my money back from TFkingdom via Paypal, (NOTE: DO NOT USE TF KINGDOM FOR ANYTHING FOLKS!), so I'm compiling my own list of rip-offs and such.

Thanks for the heads-up Gidiot!

I have to come back and say that I did buy a few items from them. This was several months go now, but I did get good service and quick shipment. Again, several months ago.
