Battery belt for sale

OK someone has listed a screen accurate G&M battery belt, and he doesn't claim it is screen used, but sure does throw out the idea it is since he bought it with a screen used Cylon, and other screen used items. One reason I question about it NOT being screen used is the lack of adhesive on the battery box material. Other than that it is the correct belt, and if screen used a OK price. Not screen used WAY over priced.

Perhaps we should ask him if he has any photos of his former suit to share for updating the galleries... *Hint, hint*

You're right about the price... it's overpriced indeed! A pity... :sad:

I know who this guy is. A few years ago he was claiming he owned 1 of only 3 Cylon's left in the entire world. His HORRIBLE 2-3 photos he has posted were dark, and looked like his camera lens had dust on it, or it was raining inside is dark house. He was trying to hide his hand, and arm off to the side. A piece or two was missing that included one of the gloves.
I looked at his eBay profile, and recall his web site URL that no longer works. As with the Cylon he sold he pushed it as a one of three he is now lying again. Claiming this is screen used. All though he doesn't claim this in the listing his profile claims he ONLY sells screen used. Trying to make big bucks off a lie is all.

I've also tried to visit his website, but it's gone by now...

If I recall right, the costume was quoted at $60.000... still don't know if it's the price he paid for it or if it's the value he wanted to sell it for... :huh:

My file system is a mess. I changed over to a Apple about 3 months ago, and still don't have it down 100%, but I can say it isn't this guy.

Here is our TOS GBS eBay section, if it was in the "old" Gallery - it would be here.

HOLY FRACK?! $1,000!!??

I couldn't see the listed earlier today at work (eBay is blocked by "the man") ... tonight I just saw it and peed my under suit :shock:
I was thinking it would be like $300-MAYBE $500-ish or so... BUT $1K? LORDS OF KOBAL, it better have a few diamonds in it for that price. Insane.

I just ROUGHLY figured (based on my image / values here) that a Cylon Centurion has 48 parts. So the average screen used sale price PER PART is $510.42. So that belt is WAY over priced.

P.S. GoldCylon, Red Eye - anyone - feel free to send me a G&M Belt for free! K? SUPER! :twisted:

Razz the dude. Send him a question about the belt. Ask something stupid like the adhesive marks or what ever you want. I know questions beside me have been asked already a d no answers given. We just have to give him BS for that listing.
