I have being thinking about this for a while now. I am getting out of collecting Gi Joe/ Action Force. I have had enough of this bad deal and it has make me see sense about collecting. Baron could you take down my profile please. I would like to thank everyone on this forum for there help and advice through the years. Also for some great trades.
Thanks Mark

Please don't blame the website because of one bad member. His poor feedback was clear before you entered into a transaction with him, as was the disclaimer.

You were not the only one affected mate if that is any help.
Why let one idiot ruin your passion for this great line.
This is a great site with some top fella's and it would be sad to loose a valued forum member :(

Mark - I totally understand how a bad experience can cause collectors burnout and seem to sour the experience. I almost got royally screwed to the tune of £700 by a member (well, now ex member) a good few years back. Felt like totally throwing in the towel.

I ended up just backing away for a while, stopped looking at eBay, and just popped by when the mood took me to bftb and other sites. Eventually you refind your collecting mojo, and have a witty post or two to offer, and drift back in. But don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. For every Skyline there's 50 decent folks.

Just try backing away from stuff a bit. Rather than pulling out completely? I for one hope you stay around.

Yeah, don't let Skyline ruin it for you.

I think over the years everyone here's probably felt a bit like this after a bum deal at some point in time, as Steve says, just take a sabbatical from the collecting scene for a while & think things over.
More news, as its made, from new Action Force!

I don't blame the site. If anything I think this is by far the Best Site around, very unique. The vast majority of members are great. I know the risks you take in transactions.
