Hmmm... and he still has it listed on eBay. Guess he feels no remorse.
Glad you got him bud!! People like those are not to be allowed on these forms full of hard working prop makers trying to do their thing!

As I've said before about myself I joined the RPF following a long search for the best BR Blaster I could find and not only did I do so, I found this phenomenal community of fans and artists.
I am constantly blown away by the skill, talent and imagination of so many people that it ******* me off that a number of ***** think it fine to exploit the artistry of others whose talent they will never possess.
To the true artists keep on keeping on! I would rather pay for the real thing than put a penny in the pockets of one of these *******!

Update on my purchase of the 2 badges from "gordenj67". Instead of the 2 badges (which I'd already started the return process on following the posts above), this arrived!
So, one badge missing in action and the badge that did arrive isn't the one listed.
And people ask why I'm considering leaving this hobby...
***EDIT*** The seller refunded my payment which, to be fair, is honourable. They'd earlier proactively refunded an overpayment on postage. Whilst recasting can't be condoned, I doff my cap at the seller's handling of this transaction.

The "other" guy on EBay offering all 4 badges is indeed me! You can get them cheaper here though.

So let us break this down......
They claim that they have bought a bunch from GG either on ebay for $35 (Shipped) a piece, or through the RPF at a cost of $25.00 plus $6.00 shipping ($31.00 shipped).
They claim they "bought a bunch of these to resell", and by resell, they mean listing them for $26.58 plus $12.46 in shipping, for a total sale price of $39.04.
$39.04 - $0.30 (eBay seller insertion fee) leaves them $38.74. Now.... subtract $3.12 in final value fees (8% ebay standard fee).... then subtract the PayPal standard 2.9% ($1.17). This leaves them a final pocket amount of $34.45.
So if they bought from GG on ebay, their sales plan was to flip them for a 55 cent loss on each? Or if they bought through the RPF, they are going through all the trouble to resell for a whopping $3.45 on each badge?
Needless to say I do NOT BUY that they went this route.
