[Krycek7o2]

Wait, wheres the real Dragon coin?
Is this really a Dragon Buckler, or did you just repaint the dyno buckler? :confused:

I know those are the real stickers, but...

yeah that's what i was thinking and some of the back stickers appear to be missing.

[DaiShiRio]

if you read what he said he used it to make more dragon coins, thats why it shows the other dragon coins made by other people aswell

[Krycek7o2]

Yeah I read this

ZyuRanger Dragon Buckler Loose, comes with morpher, holster and 3 coins. One coin is a casting of the actual coin that came with the toy. The other 2 are fan sculpts of the coin. all fit in the morpher.

[Krycek7o2]

The holster and Buckler are official, but as pointed out, the coins aren't.

Yeah, thats a shame. I might bet on this...

[MMPR-TheGreenRanger]

Um, unless I missed something, TWO coins are casts of the actual coin, and one is a sculpt. Only difference is, one cast is not as good as the other.

[Tech_Styles]

Sorry for the confusion.
I got a DragonBuckler but it came without a coin. I'm including in the auction one of Jess's, Buzz's and a recast of the toy DragonCoin(it's in the morpher). The toy recast coin is wither Argus or Outatime (can't remember who I got it from). The buckler was missing the 5 colorstripe stickers and the black bolts were painted in. Hope this clears things up.

[Voyager]

Leman, just a little piece of advice, you have not mentioned the bolts being painted on in the auction description. This means some bidders may not be aware and will be annoyed when they receive it to find that the bolts are not the original stickers.

If I were you, I'd add it to the description, its better than facing a disgruntled buyer afterwards.

[Krycek7o2]

Yeah, I would have been very mad with this. Just add that description on. Guess, I'm gonna have to cancel my bid.

[Zenoff64]

Looks pretty. Good luck with this auction!

[Lordshake]

why dont ship worldwide?

i hate when the people dont ship worldwide.. :mad:


!!!!

damn...

please accepet international buyers also.. open it to ship to brazil i beg you!


i want to buy this one!

(if you accept, please look some cheaper shipping style, i dont know why, but when the things is from us, the ship is about 40 ~ 50 usd for come here.. and things by airl mail form hong kong or japan use do be cheaper...
looks like this price usps is like express.. but if will accept please look for the same like "air mail" it could be cheaper...


i give up a lot of times for buy things from us because the high cost of the shipping, like this day i saw a changer for around 20 usd, but the ship was aroung 50.. so i give up.. since hong kong and japan things i payd around 30 for ems... or less from hong kong air mail..

and almost every time when the seller is from us just ship do canada and us.. i dont know why

and when i ask, they dont want..

i just dont get it, i dont undersand the reason...

and some us seller use to make high prices for sell worldwide, i dont know why

[Outatime]

why dont ship worldwide?

i just dont get it, i dont undersand the reason...


I can't speak for everyone, but I know for myself it's a LOT easier to ship to just the United States and I'll tell you why. Sitting at home, I can use paypal to print out my own labels, but a lot of the time I need to send things in boxes with packing materials if I'm going to ship overseas. If I'm shipping to the US I can just use an envelope and pay like $3 for shipping. If I'm going to ship overseas, I actually have to go down to the postal center, buy a BOX, pack it with materials and end up paying like $10-$15 for shipping. It's just more effort. I'll give you an example

Someone bought $75 worth of Kryptonite off of me. It was 2 large crystal clusters, one meteor rock and 3 of the smaller crystals I have. The total weight with EVERYTHING, including packing was 4 pounds. It cost me $9 to ship to the person and they lived in the united states. That's a great deal.

However, the same day i was shipping ONE morpher and ONE power coin to someone who lived in the UK and the cost was $9.30! It cost more to ship one small morpher and one coin to the UK than it did to send 4 POUNDS of Kryptonite replicas to someone in the United States.

[ExVee]

International shipping from the US *is* expensive. I just got inquired the other day about something going to England, and the cheapest good rate I could get for it was $24, via USPS. The next increment down was only a few dollars cheaper and you had no guarantee when (or presumably if) it would arrive. Maybe our country's post office is purposely inflating the cost to ship overseas?

[Outatime]

I have no clue but it's so irritating when people ask me for shipping quotes, bc I honestly have NO clue how much it will be. Even the slightest variance in weight makes the cost increase. I shipped out 2 zeo crystals to noleaf and the cost was $24. I only charged $15 (i think) for shipping. I'm not the type to go and ask for more money once the transaction is dealt with, so that was a loss for me. I just wish I could know exactly what the cost will be without having to take it down to the post office for a quote. insane, I say!

[Tech_Styles]

Okay, I added to the description about the black lightning bolts and the sticker stripes. I state in the auction for internatiopnal bidders to email me first. I will generally accept bidders from overseas, I just want to be aware so I can figure out the postage costs and make sure they know it will cost more to ship. I just had a request for shipping to Italy. I said it would probably be around $25.00. If you don't ask, you'll never know when someone might say yes.

well.. but why care about the cost? the buyer will have to pay it anyway...

when i buy something i already think in the shipping cost, i use to buy from japan and hk, that is very far away than US, the people sell whit no problem, and it use to be around 10 ~ 30 usd... (10 somethings of hong kong, in airmail, 30 is something like power brace from flip dude.. or 35, dont remember.. anyway its around that)

and...
why the United States´s post is so expansive?

nternational shipping from the US *is* expensive. I just got inquired the other day about something going to England, and the cheapest good rate I could get for it was $24, via USPS.

if you see the shipping cost for send something like a gekichanger for brazil, you will see that usps price is around 40 ~ 50 usd, and japan´s EMS is around 30 usd..
i just dont understand, why cost more than shipping from the more far away country.. (japan)


The next increment down was only a few dollars cheaper and you had no guarantee when (or presumably if) it would arrive. Maybe our country's post office is purposely inflating the cost to ship overseas?

well.. make some preview.. ok.. but the buyer just cant make the seller guarantee nothing..
when i for example want to know the time that it takes, is an preview of the service, that isnot under the seller powers.. so is just some info about the service, because different countries have different kind of services... hk´s air mail once comes in 4 day, and about a week in the custom´s hand, in the second time comes on 12 days.. more a month in the custom´s hand..
i knwo that air mail of hk is good.. but japan is better to use EMS, i receive the power brace from flip dude in about one week.. or less.. a friend received an cd from cd japan and received by ems in about 4~5 days..

well is just espect... isnot sure the time...

i never received anything from US yet.. due the high cost.. and i dont buy PR toys, just Sentai toys, but a costumer here wan a power morpher (he dont want to pay high for bucklers, neither like sentai so much...) and maybe i will buy one for sell for him..

anyway, i´m very interesed on this dragon buckler, since is an auction its posible to get for a good price.. isnot on the box.. but anyway, is a dragon buckler.. who cares for the box.. is very rare to see one..

look for the price for ship it to brazil.. i hope that it would be the same price than itally...

if you accept it i may bid on it..

[ExVee]

I suppose First Class International (I think that's what our post office calls the lowest level of overseas service) is roughly equivalent to SAL, except the post office will not even estimate the number of days delivery may take. Global Priority is like Registered Airmail, where it's 6-10 days. But either way the equivalent cost is higher out of the US than in to the country. I sometimes wonder if it could even be a matter of it simply being more common to send things overseas out of Japan, Hong Kong and mainland China, so they have the resources more readily available and can cut the cost. I'm sure there's a number of factors none of us consider that determine the rates in a particular place.

As far as Outatime's particular issue, if you do a fair quantity of mailing and get more than just the occasional overseas request, you might look into getting a 3-5 pound capacity food scale. They're usually cheaper than the real postal scales, and the weight limit is unimportant since few people will want to pay what it really costs to have something heavier than five pounds shipped out of the country. I've done enough where I have the experience to estimate pretty accurately the weight of the stuff I sell and have never accidentally undercharged for shipping, even on the rare overseas incident.

Anyhow, I can tell you from my own research that between one and two pounds of package will cost about $24 to ship to England, so your Dragon Buckler shipping estimate is likely spot on. And if you use the post office website's shipping calculator, remember that the weight in ounces is usually irrelevant - just go ahead and round up to the next pound since the cost is almost always calculated that way anyway. Unless you have a scale and know the precise weight anyway, that is. :)

[Krycek7o2]

Tech_Styles, sorry about canceling. I went ahead and bid what I originally did.

[Zeddykins]

I'll just wait to get anoter Power Morpher & paint it gold. Dragon Bucklers are waaaaay to expensive for me. One of those coins looks like a Buzz's_Room coin...but I dunno.

[ZeroXMarquis]

Were the bolts painted in by you or the previous owner?

[MMPR-TheGreenRanger]

One of those coins looks like a Buzz's_Room coin

It is. And the other two coins are casted from the actual toy, so I don't know why he said two of the coins are sculpted by a fan. Probably because the other cast is not as good.

[Krycek7o2]

I have always like Buzz's coin. I really don't know why.

[Redius]

Damn, I got sniped in the end by 5 dollars :(

[Voyager]

Damn, I got sniped in the end by 5 dollars :(

Thats nasty luck, but make sure Tech Styles knows that your still interested, the winning bidder has 0 feedback, I hate to be pessimistic, but it could be a hoax bid, in which case your in there ;)

[Krycek7o2]

Damn, I got sniped in the end by 5 dollars :(

Damn, that sucks!
Hell, I so would have snagged this if it weren't for the damn bolts :mad:!
Let the seller know, that in case the buyer doesn't go through, you want the item! Wish you luck! :023:

[MMPR-TheGreenRanger]

Hell, I so would have snagged this if it weren't for the damn bolts :mad:!

Really? It was the lack or real coin that got me.

[Krycek7o2]

Really? It was the lack or real coin that got me.

Yeah, the coin not so much, since I would just have gotten another one of Buzz's coins. That would suffice, well for me at least.

[Voyager]

Buzz's coin looks better than the original! lol its just the shiney paint job on the real coins thats nice.

[Krycek7o2]

Buzz's coin looks better than the original! lol its just the shiney paint job on the real coins thats nice.

Yup, that a given to both your points!

[MMPR-TheGreenRanger]

Buzz's coin looks better than the original!

Not to me. The original will always look better.

[Redius]

The painted bolts bother me a bit, If the guy actually pays its fine. But dragon buckler...

Oh well, thats life. ^^

[Krycek7o2]

Alright, turns out I put this item into my dummy auto bidder account, so it I who won the auction! SWEET! :007:

Didn't bother to check the winning page....doh! :o

Tech_Styles I sent you a message with all some details. So expect payment on Tuesday or Wednesday. My main account Rebel2109, if you want to check my perfect buying feedback. I can assure you, I am good for the money and always keep my word with deals. Just ask some people here I have bought from! :023:

[Voyager]

Somewhat off topic, but still relevant, I actually feel so sorry for Dragon Bucklers. They are so rare, so hard to come by, and as such worth so much money, that as soon as someone gets it, its placed on a shelf, for admiration only. Often, there never even removed from their boxes, and the sad thing is, as soon as the owner comes into financial difficulties, they find themselves straight on ebay.

Its like, being a rare item actually means, your unlikely to ever be in a collection long term, its more like you will be passed from owner to owner, and I find that so sad.

krycek 702, please give this one a stable home for tears to come!

[Krycek7o2]

krycek 702, please give this one a stable home for years to come!

You bet I will! I know, its not complete, but its still a valuable item, and a sentimental piece for me. I can assure I will take care of it, because this means a lot to my childhood years.

You know, the same will happen for Dino Bucklers. But this didn't go as high as it could of on a count of it not having the original coin. Having that would of probably added a good $100 to it. Oh well, just don't leave it on the your computer table like I do with my Power Morpher LOL.

[Krycek7o2]

Oh well, just don't leave it on the your computer table like I do with my Power Morpher LOL.

Hehe... Don't worry, my Dyno Buckler (And soon, Dragon Buckler) is protect by Asuka, ZyuRed and Rei on my Morpher/Anime section! :D

[Voyager]

you say that MMPR-TheGreenRanger but my own dino buckler sits here on my desk! *hypocrite!*
lol but I got it much the same as this Dragon buckler, very good price, but incomplete/imperfect.
Its good these both have good homes now :)

Thats the same way I got my DynoBuckler, just came with one coin. I didn't mind. I just wanted the item. Twas missing one of the multicolored stickers, but I didn't care. All that matter was that I own it :)

YOU!!!!

Lol, something told me it would be you gunning for it. It was odd that you came back after you withdrew the bid. I bid on it mostly for the fact its the Dragon Buckler with the Holster. It would be sweet for my Dragon Ranger Cosplay.

My modded Power Morpher sits next to my Dragon Dagger Prop. Guess I have to find something to make the Morpher stay in the holster(Outatime's). Take good care of that thing man. It is a priceless artifact...

[MMPR-TheGreenRanger]

you say that MMPR-TheGreenRanger but my own dino buckler sits here on my desk! *hypocrite!*

Yeah, but you probably don't play with it like I do with my Power Morpher. I imitate the zyuranger henshin pose with it. Mind you, I also have a Dino buckler, complete with box and everything, but I don't play with it.

[Krycek7o2]

YOU!!!!

I was thinking, this would one of those "regretful moments", so I decided to come back with a new account. I was thinking about it ever since I came back from picking up my little brother from school...so I went for it at the last second.

I can assure, you will find one, and it will be complete. Hell, a lot better than the one I am buying. I hope you the best of luck (not that you will need it)! :023:

Thanks Dude. Whether complete or not its still THE Dragon Buckler. Anyway, have fun my friend ^^

[Morfan76]

I've never understood the demand for the Dragon Buckler. It doesn't really do anything. lol

I think morphers like the Uzaphone and Accellular are far cooler. haha.

I bought my nephew, Reddragonstarking,a Dragon Buckler off Yahoo! Japan 2years ago for $300.00.

His Dragon Buckler is in great working shape, with the original box and all the coins. The only things missing are the five color stickers that go on the back, but I think he may have gotten some. I also bought him some coins from Buzz.

At any rate, he uses his KR Faiz Driver/belt and Accellular the most. Probably in the bathroom with the door shut. haha.

Anyway, congrats to the winner of this auction! Have fun with your new morpher!

[SPD Gold]

Tech? Did you get any of my latest e-mails?

[Redius]

One question,


Would it be disgraceful in anyway to convert a Dino Buckler to the Dragon Buckler? You know mod it? Or should I just not do that. At the moment I am still deciding if I should save myself the trouble of finding a Dragon Buckler or not.

It would be disgraceful to attempt to mod a BOJ Dino Buckler to a dragon buckler when a standard BOA MMPR Power Morpher can be converted just as easily!

aswell as disgraceful, it'd be bloody stupid!
The only the advantage I can see is keeping the BOJ stickers, but if you modded the unit without damaging the stickers at all, then your a superior human to me!

[Redius]

Exactly what I though. Thank you for double checking me. ^^ I was thinking it over and knew it was a bad Idea I just wanted to make sure before i did something idiotic.

[VagrantEuphoria]

well, technically, since repro labels released stickers that relatively identical to the zyuranger ones(the front side), modding a dinobuckler is not as crazy. sure, its still pretty much sacrilege not to use a PM, but its not totally impossible

Actually, there was a guy, I think it was here, asking where he can buy a Dragon buckler because he wanted to convert it to a Dragonzord morpher. Now THAT is stupid.

[Krycek7o2]

Well, just paid. Let me know when it ships, Tech_Styles.
