I'm almost 40 years old and have collected stuff my entire life...comics, toys, magazines, lobbies, posters, etc, etc. The mask hobby is THE single worst hobby I've ever been involved with in terms of assholes who lie, cheat and steal...Unbelievable...............................Larry <img src=\"http://forums.NIGHTOWLpro.com/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/down.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":down:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"down.gif\" />

I wonder why this market is more corrupt than others?So sorry to hear about your loss, VF. Not a thread like this goes by, that I don't question why I participate in this online buying/selling market. Hope you figure out something.

Not pretty - pretty tough to trust people when you are in front of a computer takes time.Sorry to hear about your loss - really sucks but you really have to protect yourselfI can't believe you deposited a money order - it goes thru good as gold and then the bank says that it has been yanked ?You should not be left holding the bag here. Contact the bank - you gave them the money order and they cashed it - Even if it is a stolen money order should not be your problem.I would go after your bank as they are the ones who have the money order - there has got to be a way to trace the crooks whereabout somewhere.hope it all works outShummy

Larry, this also wasn\'t involved in the mask hobby either....he sold a predator bust....so more like a prop/toy collectible..Everything in the mask hobby is so custom made that you really just need to be careful and protect yourself at all costs. it happens though.Hell even with toys, you have to deal with so many bootlegs and fakes out there. I haven\'t been ripped off more than once in my 8 years collecting masks...been lucky I guess and i\'ve been involved in probably over 500 transactions or so.It\'s kind of like the news, only bad news is reported most of the time. I for one enjoy the hobby a ton and it\'s very easy to have a good time and be safe. THe crap going on definitely needs to stop but it\'s not as common as you\'d think

I'm not trying to slam this hobby Dan..its just an outside observation that in my 2 years in this hobby it seems overrun with horror stories and con artists. I've had my share of bad turns here and I've never experienced this in any other hobby I've been involved with....just my two cents..............................Larry
