Someone is selling mintypi's

Post by FishtreeFarms » Fri Aug 18, 2017 7:42 pm

I'm not sure if Wermy gave this guy permission to use them or not, but he's using the "official" pictures. He only has five in stock though, so it looks like he is just doing his own thing. Just a heads up, and maybe someone wants to buy them, I don't know. But he should get his own pictures. Here's the url

Pretty sure he's not allowed to use official pictures, but wow he's selling them for a good price :0

Yea. I saw a listing on ebay earlier of a similar thing. Some seller named scolari95 selling one for 300 AU (~237 US) and some hella' expensive shipping to boot. Have their own pics though, so I suppose is all good.

Harsh on the price though.

Yeah he's using my pictures now. I'm not fussed but my only concern would be buying from someone who doesn't have his own pictures as this indicates to me they havent actually built one??

As for price / shipping, all Sudomod members can message me for a deal.

Its high as eBay and PayPal really sting you. 😔

Ok. I never clicked on the link so didn't realize that was his from that post. My bad for sure.

After posting that, I thought on it and realized the price was more than likely due to the shipping costs paid to receive it there and then to send back out as well as ebay's ridiculous "we're gonna hit you hard for the work you do" listing fees.

Again. My bad.


I've been on the cheap so much for ordering things, I forget that shipping to the US is often cheaper than elsewhere.

Hey man it's all good!

I could certainly sell it cheaper but as you say shipping and fees do add up. eBay just 'revised' their fees too 🤔. Not giving another one away just yet 🤣
