Die Cast Lighted 1/350th TOS Enterprise (TOMY crowd funded)

I bought 1 at $46.99, vendor is Fairfield Collectibles. It said it was their last one. I checked later and it was a different vendor at a higher price. Maybe there was a firesale and multiple resellers picked them up super-cheap and are trying to dump fast? I'll be interested to see if the box is still sealed along with everything present inside...

P.S. The TOMY, warts & all, is still amazing to me at this price point! It of course doesn't hold a candle to my string-art E from the 70s...but it's close...

I bought one this morning through Walmart for $41.99, sold and shipped by Horizon Hobby. I just checked again and it was $61.78 by a different supplier.

Did the guy have good or bad reviews. In one post you said he didn't .

Yes he did have bad reviews! His rating was a 3.5 overall, so he did have some good reviews. But IMO ANYTHING below 4 is bad. AND his BAD REVIEWS WERE BAD.

Since this is sold via. Walmart, you can use PayPal so you’re protected if you get anything but what’s advertised, or it doesn’t get delivered at all.
 
I put in an order for one yesterday with WalMart, and got a notification this morning that my order was canceled because the item was now out of stock and that PayPal was refunding my purchase.

Yea, honestly I started laughing. I have already started a return. I found a group on facebook where about seventy people had the same problem. You know the saying, if it's too good to be true ;). Honestly, I did not need any more builds as I have about 4 working right now.

Yeah cool that you didn't take it to seriously! Glad you're protected though!

Very true so true...when a deal is to good....Happened to me to last year. Found a seller on Mercari selling a Hottoys Leia Hoth figure at the original selling price! They usually go for 2 or 3 times that price! I ended up with a Digital Voice recorder instead. LOL Thankfully Mercari was on it and cancelled that sucker and gave me my monies back. So yeah I know the feeling!

Seventy people huh? Man us collectors are serious targets for scammers! LOL
