new possible re-caster on ebay ... in UK !!

[craigyboy]

Hi all,
just been having a nose around on ebay and we have a possible new re-caster located in the UK... selling ripped off 1/35 and busts from life miniatures and youngs with a sprinkling from other manufacturers too. he's from Newcastle upon Tyne. maybe he's picked these up from another counter fitter from somewhere in the world and has decided to sell them off as he does not want them any more...…. giving him the benefit of the doubt first of course !! ……. or he's doing the dastardly deed and re casting. just seems too many for a mistaken purchase.

In which case, he might have a traceable address Anyone on here who lives nearby could pop round and see if he's had his knuckles broken yet.........all in the Spirit of Christmas, you understand

Hi Guys

I have seen this guy on flea bay certainly a heck of a lot , can't believe they all aren't recasts ..as Craig says just too many

I have also spotted this seller on e-bay, he does have a U.K e-bay address but I was victim to a re-caster who's address was listed on e-bay as the U.K but he actually was operating out of Poland.

This chap has just been banned from the scale -models.uk site for selling recasts. Despite some well-meaning advice he didn't seem to understand the implications of what he was doing.

He was recently banned from scale model forums.
He called us hypocrites(I don't know why) for wanting to buy originals.

Really? You gotta laugh, haven't you ? Absolutely no idea, obviously, as to the harm he's doing. A total twat , then.
