That's what I was thinking, if the bids go crazy high, the buyer will back out. The routine was to watch it get relisted over and over again similar to other super rare sets.

If the bags were resealed and listed as new then the seller is fraudulent. Do they think a collector who pays 3k isn't going to notice or care?

If there are so many collectors interested in spending 1k or 2k it wouldn't take too many to cooperate and pool the funds together and buy molds from the Chinese. I hardly doubt there are any copyrights still in effect on this set.

So the seller put them and sealed the bags.
You can see one sticker is used into a bag!

 :-\  He faked the bags? That's plain illegal.

edit: right, hadn't seen Rasputin's response yet. What he said  ;)

I am quite sure that if the point was to make a "bootleg" rollercoaster, a bunch of people could do better than that... Some of them are probably around here too.. ;)

Like others said, though it IS an interesting ITEM, as a "real set", it is... lacking. A lot. IMO.

(the bag with the sticker.. stuck.. doesn't seem sealed to me..)

Someone could make an Indiana jones, if that was the movie, by using the mining tracks and cart. Just heat bend them up and down, there is a turn at least in one direction.

i ask him why he try to sell a used box like new.
he did not reply me.

i do not undestand.  the stickers are used, and a collector will pay the same with or whithout the bag.

a real collector wait and bid in last minute and do not bid and bid 4 days before.

i wont bid, with 2k I can get some rare and beautiful sets

Yeah even IF I had that much money to spend on playmobil, ( like some special playmobil currency that cant be used on anything else  :P )
then I could probably get all the 90's medieval sets I still dont have which is about half of them, as well as the 90's fantasy sets I'd want.

I looked into reporting the seller of this item, but decided not to in the end (there was no option to enter my reasons for reporting, such as 'PM sets when new do not (generally) have stickers already affixed', just a few drop-down menu options). Why is the item listed as new? I don't believe it!

Its playmobil yes, just saying that it does not look like it. the rollercoaster itself looks like fisher price or such.

As far as I have allways heard/read, the rollercoaster itself is indeed not a Playmobil-design/product, but is from a local Japanese toymanufacturer. They decided to collaborate with Geobra to market the thing, and so klickies were added and it was marketed & sold in a "Playmobil"-box.
Looking at pictures of the piece  it indeed doesn´t correspond much imho with what Playmobil´s 1980s toys look like from a design & quality standpoint. Sure, it has some stickers/colours resembling the blue circus from that era, but that´s about it.

And that is why geobra needs a new one. A proper playmobil system one. Expandable not out of the box modular built by whinny parents in less than 5 minutes. In thee spirit of stecks, system x and interchangeable klickies
