Are you sure it isn't just the same seller, trying over again to sell them? Look at Corndog, he must think his figures are the cat's arse, yet he keeps "selling" his for horrendous amounts.

Counterpoint: Can you as a collector afford to gamble your money that they are? Can any of us on here afford that gamble? Myself personally, if I had the money, I would get them and make copies. I would not market them as originals. I will say that my knowledge and skill is in the molding and casting, not in card art reproduction, so my card art would suck anyway. I want the characters and I want as many different characters as I can get, so repros are fine for me and I don't need the card art anyway because I depackage my figures, so why waste extra money on AFA carded when loose is cheaper and works just as well. Also, putting it on a card increases the postage needed to send it. Just seems to me that doing mass repros for less and selling them as such would net more money in the long run.

Also, if they are the real deal and nobody will buy them, he is trapped. He has to keep listing them until they sell or pay a fee to pull them down. A repro would not be worth paying the fee.

CCC.

It looks like Marc Alaimo, aka Gul Dukat.
