Did all flesh and all color packs come in the same cases together? I do not believe so but don't know for sure.

Holy Crappers! This is going to go for a bunch. I've already asked the guy if he can take a picture(s), so we can see exactly what figures are inside.

Maybe he/she just haven't had any transactions for the past year? But ya I hope it's legit.
This should be an interesting auction, pretty cool that a 10-pack box and now a 4-pack box are both on ebay at the same time! Which one to go for.....
I agree with vette and think this will fetch a high dollar amount. I hope the seller posts some good pics of everything included especially since it is located in Canada!

interesting lot, but i would be weary. I am interested to see pics though.
Plus Barry brought up a good point... I thought the different combination flesh, flesh/color, all color were released at different times, not mixed in cases~? But then again i might be wrong as well.
maybe he just filled the box from different lots or cases. idk still seems weird that he signed up for ebay over 6 years ago and never used it, then has a full case of canadian muscle 4-packs~?

The case is not original. Cases were all the same pack type, not mixed. Looks like someone pieced together a case. I would guess that guy isn't even from Canada.

Another oddity is the case is not Canadian - clearly marked Calif. made in Japan? so it's not a Canadian case as listed - might be nothing but I wouldn't throw my $$$ on a seller who hasn't used there account in 7 years

True Jay Jay!! LOL
Pops read the listing again man, no mention ever it is from Canada. Just because the guy lives there does not mean it came from there.Also, just to let you know that it is a pieced together box, not just freshly opened and prolly no Canadian rares or Class A's. If it was a fresh box they should all be that same colors and not mixed packs. They guy knows he has something good after 35 emails from people on here. I know a few of them!!!! BILL, you dork!! Lets just tell everyone what they have and ruin it for everyone!! Didn't you learn you lesson last time? Goober!!
Still love ya though, your just funny!!

I didn't tell him what he had, I asked him to take pictures and I asked him this morning if any of the 4 packs have a claw inside. I think him getting 35 emails alone tells him he has something, and the fact that there is someone constantly trying to "throw his weight around" with rebids..........Jayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
If someone doesn't like the fact that I asked those questions, well please remind me to care because I don't.

Lots of red flags for me. 
1. Zero feedback is always bad. (Yes, I know we all had to start somewhere - but it's bad.)
2. I think he's trying to play dumb.
Zero feedback sellers don't just magically end up with mixed content 4-pack boxes - especially from the super attractive location of Canada.
Also, people were wondering how/why/who are the zero feedback accounts that drive up prices. I'd be willing to guess that this might be one of the magical accounts.
1. Zero feedback is always bad. (Yes, I know we all had to start somewhere - but it's bad.)
2. I think he's trying to play dumb.
I think he's also been very careful with the auction description. Look at the way it is written. It is an original factory box, but it's clear that it's not the original contents. He notes that the box says 72 and he's counted 72 packs, so "they must all be there." It's true that the numbers match, but again not the original contents - which is what would have the greatest value. And then the final, pièce de résistance, the naivety clause: I don't know much about these, look at the pictures.Up for sale I have an original factory box of muscle men. The case
says that there's 72 packs and I've counted 72 as well so I think
they're all there. There are packs of pink muscles and packs where
the muscle men are different colours. I don't know too much about
these so I took lots of pictures so you know what is included.

I guess we'll find out if there is a gem or not after Jay wins it.
I guess the biggest yes there is a gem factor for me is:
1. The guy is from Canada.
---I'm guessing that when Jay talked to the guy over the phone, Jay asked what figures are inside (by figure and color). For Jay's sake, I hope I'm right.
Possibility of no gem factors:
1. Oddidty of something so cool being auctioned off, by someone with no feedback.
2. Not original box.
3. Doesn't have close up pictures (hopefully he updates this). I'll agree with Veers. If you're going to take lots of pictures, what is stopping you from taking pictures of the figures? Take them out of the box, or is the person really that lazy. There are 6 pictures on Ebay, so one/two of those could have taken a few extra minutes to get exactly what figures are available.

The guy knows what he has and I got out of the conversation that he just did not want to pay the price for extra pictures...LOL
Lie # 1, then he told me that he did not know what he had but its clear he does looking at how he listed his aution as careful as he did Lie #2.
I will let you know if indeed there is something good in there and most will be available to LRG if I win.
Bill, still love ya buddy and yes you do care fart knocker!!!!!

well... its super easy to upload pics to a image hosting site and posting the link. free pics.
if he isnt interested in posting more pics may mean he doesnt have it at all.
