blueShinyApple Posted February 2, 2011 Author Posted February 2, 2011 I got sad news. It was a scam. The package arrived yesterday. I shaked it, and it sure was LEGO, but when I opened it I realized that the package wasn't misb, and that it was totally wrong pieces. It was a mix of pieces from set 8851 and 8030, and some other random pieces. No pneumatics, no tracks, no bucket, but a lot of wheels (????).. And I got instructions for set 8851, 8030, 8843, and a old technic booklet.. it was kinda' weird, 'cause it was some old lady that was selling it so it was a little suspicious.. but anyways, any ideas what to do?

blueShinyApple Posted February 2, 2011 Author Posted February 2, 2011 I'm doing some calls, and earliest tomorrow i will have it fixed Quote
Tobbe Arnesson Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 Bummer! It was a new user to Tradera but still. Ask for your money back, they clearly stated it as a unopened set and it was not. See more here on how to proceed (in Swedish): http://www.tradera.com/help/HelpPage.aspx?NodeID=1640 Failing all that chalk it up to learning experience and move on. Quote
blueShinyApple Posted February 2, 2011 Author Posted February 2, 2011 (edited) She was appearently selling it for her abroad son... [edit] But seriosly, I think I'll have it fixed tomorrow Edited February 2, 2011 by blueShinyApple Quote
Paul B Technic Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 I just won a auction! :laugh: well, what should I do with a unopened 8851 pneumatic excavator? should I open it, or try to keep it till I'm 70 and sell it then? What do you use to do with MISB LEGO? should I make the worlds only unboxing video? Some ideas or thoughts? Open it :) Quote
blueShinyApple Posted February 3, 2011 Author Posted February 3, 2011 (edited) Problem solved! The old lady was selling her sons old LEGO, like a big lot of unsorted LEGO. But then, among all the other LEGO she found the box. You all know the old boxes, with a lid that opens, then through a transparent cellophane you can see the pieces, and you open the box on the side. She thought it was unopened -because of the cellophane , and she couldn't see that it was the wrong pieces, 'cause the instructions was placed all over the pieces..- so she picked it out and sold it alone. I bought it, she sent it, I got it, I opened it, I thought it was a scam, I called her, she gave me my money back. Edited February 3, 2011 by blueShinyApple Quote
