Need urgent help / opinion – "bradburied"
Hi everyone,
I think I messed up badly and need your advice. Yesterday, I won several auctions from the eBay seller bradburied (Randy Poling). Looking back, a huge red flag was that I was the only bidder on all of them.
Here is the list of Inserts I "won":
- Blade Runner (Insert) look at the orignal link below at the left edge it should also not be original
- Star Wars Style A (Insert)
- Jaws (Insert)
- Return of the Jedi Style B (Insert)
- Empire Strikes Back GWTW Style (Insert) (look at the link below on this one i can see it could not be orignal
- Alien (Insert)
After doing some research tonight and reading the warnings here on the forum, I realized his reputation. I immediately requested a cancellation of the order. Just a few minutes later, he suddenly marked the status of all items as "Shipped" to block the cancellation.
I already contacted eBay customer support, but they told me I now have to wait until the package arrives before I can take the next steps.
I am almost 100% sure these are all fake/bootlegs, especially the Empire Strikes Back GWTW – even looking closely at the auction picture now, I can see things that don't look right. Yet, in his descriptions and messages, he constantly and aggressively emphasizes that everything is "100% original".
My questions to the community:
- Are these specific Inserts from him known to be 100% definitive bootlegs?
- Once the package arrives, what is the best way to handle the eBay dispute so I get a full refund without getting scammed on return shipping?
- What specific features should I photograph on these inserts to prove to eBay that they are counterfeits?
I would highly appreciate any help or pictures of genuine vs. his bootleg versions to back up my case with eBay.
