Anyone have any experience with these replicas?

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/JAMES-BOND-Replica-CASINO-ROYALE-MOVIE-PROP-/290516480097?pt=UK_DVD_Film_TV_Film_Memorabilia_LE&hash=item43a421b061#ht_762wt_1141

Just saw that on ebay and thought it looked pretty good. Anybody have any experience buying from that seller and know what the quality of the prop is like?

    I know spyboys did them and I have one that looks great… don’t know who made this version…

    Yep, Ed at the SpyBoys made one very nice replica :007)

    yep, they are full replicas of the same torches and functions (apart from the beeping.. as added by post production)
    a good seller, from past experience.

    I have one of these versions. The seller is good to deal with. The flashlight is accurate, one thing to be aware of though, the main led has just been replaced with a red flashing led. this means that the flashlight also flashes red when active. Don't know if this is how Ed did his or indeed if this is how the original was made. Just an observation, happy with mine.

    Looks nice. But as a buyer I'd be slightly suss from the inaccuracies in the sales pitch:
    "used by Carlos in the opening Miami Airport sequence of Casino Royale" & "incorporates the indicator red light which flashes the same and is operated in the same way as in Casino Royale."
    Sounds like you need the phone and then it actually blows up!!!!! Bargain for £20 if it does, plus possiby illegal :))
