I have ordered from this site twice. Matt Camaratta is prompt. The first time, there was a weird issue where my order was automatically cancelled after I paid, but Matt took care of it promptly. The first time, I ordered a Classics Bumblebee. The second time, I couldn't believe my eyes, when I checked the site and saw that there was a complete, sealed, Classics Rodimus for $30, which is what a 6 year old, sealed, deluxe figure SHOULD cost. For reference, on Amazon and BigBadToyStore, he is listed at double the price, and at this time, is sold out on the latter! I ordered it on September 15th. It got here on the 20th, and likely would have been here sooner if it hadn't been for the weekend.
Both figures arrived with ample padding in their boxes, and even though Bumblebee wasn't sealed (which I expected), he was in excellent condition.
If you want to find that older figure that is missing from your collection because you didn't have the good fortune of it being distributed to your area, I definitely recommend this site.
Don't listen to the reviews about "how great * is", how he's "very fair and prompt", and the like - the man is a crook.
A few years back, I sold an ENORMOUS collection to him, valued at more than $30,000, no joke. Each figure was bagged separately, with all accessories, and boxed accordingly. He offered me $4,200 - I understood that I was going to take a major hit, but not a hit like that. I broke down and sold to him, because I fell on extremely hard times and needed the money for rent and bills, or my family was going to be on the streets. I paid for shipping (over $300). I included a typed out list of every single figure included, accessories and all, with the shipment. He paid me less than half up front for my shipment, which was fine, I guess. I sent him the tracking numbers, and I tracked them as well.
He then claimed he never received more than half the shipment, which was false, as I tracked the order directly to his place of business (his home). When I asked for the rest of the money he owed me, he became very defensive, claiming that he "did me a favor" by sending me money up front, and that I was an ungrateful person and that I should just "chalk it up as a loss". I had been collecting since 1990, and sent this man complete sets of almost every TF line since that era. Some G1, G2, complete sets of Beast Wars, Beast Machines, Machine Wars, RID, Armada, Energon, Cybertron, Classics, Masterpiece, Alternators, Generations, etc. - all complete lines, and some Takara pieces as well. My Transformers collection was my pride and joy, next to my children.
This man literally stole my hard earned collection, and stole something that was very close to my heart. I will NEVER be able to afford to get my collection back, because Mr. Matthew Camaratta is a swindler. My review may not be able to bring my prized collection back, and it will never heal the pain and regret in my heart, but hopefully it will help open the eyes of someone else who is considering selling their collection to him.
Stay away from selling to "Transformerland" at all costs if you don't want to be stolen from and heartbroken, with no chance of return.
Great doing business with you Matt. I would highly reccommend you to all. Very fair. Thanks. Rhonda
I sent in a box of decent condition and he sent me cash. Easy transaction.
Ok. I made a minivacation into business trip. So I took a travel trailer of over 800 Transformers (plus over 75 Digimon, Voltron...) to FL in hopes of selling them all to Matt. Though I did not sell all of them, I was offered a decent price for the ones which were sold. Matt and Ben work very well together and both have IN DEPTH knowledge of everything Transformer. The money transaction took a little longer than I had hoped (due to MY BANK holding the funds for 10 days, NO FAULT OF MATT!), and upon leaving the store, I felt like the amount was a lot lower than what we originally came up with. But I left as it was late in the afternoon. I received a text AND a call from Ben alerting me that there WAS a mistake (quite LARGE) and that they needed to make it right. Matt made right the discrepancy in the amount and mailed the payment which arrived in 3 days. WHO DOES THAT ANYMORE?! To ACTUALLY be VERY VERY HONEST! To be truthful, in this day and time, I was truly humbled at the very act of the INITIAL honesty, especially when reading very negative comments about their honesty from other customers. Now I won't say I got what I felt my items were worth, and I TOLD Matt that, but Matt DID meet me in the middle for a mutually equitable transaction. Will I do business with him again? Definitely! Seeing the store and the organization, the kinship of the business partners, and the fair and HONEST business practice. Well, there is no wonder as to why they are getting 5 stars from me! I hope not only to consider both of them as a business acquaintance but as potential friends for life... after all, Matt purchased many years of my life with the purchase of my collection of Transformers. More than that though is the honesty of a mistake made on their part and the near IMMEDIATE (within 6 hours. As soon as they caught the mistake) action taken to make it right. If there were something dishonestly done in the past, I surely would have never known it. They EARNED my trust, and THAT is something very HARD to come by these days!
Matt offered me more for my collection than others, and was honest and fair.
Super fast transaction and very fair price. Very satisfied!
Was so helpful with my special needs son on his ordering. Will be sure to use services again
It has been a pleasure to work with Matt, great company, awesome site!
Very good experience. Would use again and will recommend.
Matt gave me outstanding service, a great offer and I absolutely recommend using his services!
Nice process to sell my large chunk of collection with a good price
Sold him some G1 Transformers, and everything went through smoothly. Highly recommended.
Fair prices for my collection and quick transactions. Will definitely use again.
I sought out many sites where I could sell my old movie transformers collection and almost no one wanted it or offered a relatively low price for them, but transformers land was absolutely great! Great to work with, responsive, and eager to carry out the transaction even though a small shipping issue appeared. 10/10 would highly recommend doing business with them.
I've been buying from this website for almost 15 years now, and I've never once not had a great experience with them! Figures are always sent well protected, and communication is great when there's anything that needs followup on or what condition the figure is in before you purchase!
I went to make a purchase and my card gave me issues. When I canceled Matt reached out asking if everything was ok. I very much appreciated the friendly environment and will 100% be purchasing from here again.
Transformerland always has a great selection and fair prices. It's worth checking back every week to see what new things they get in stock. The shipping is reasonable and the packaging is always professional. I'm always happy with my purchase
Answer: We typically ship the business day after payment is received, same day if early in the morning. Within the US, it will take anywhere from 1-7 business days depending on the service you chose and how far you are from Florida:) Outside the US, shipping times are 3-5 days express, 7-10 days priority, 10-14 days first class, give or take :)

Answer: Sure, I think we are already communicating thru email actually, just wanted to make sure your question was addressed here as well :) But yes, we buy from all over
August 2013, I remember this transaction. It is color coded red in a sea of green smooth transactions (I refer you to all the other reviews on this page). It was $3500 + half of shipping. The market value of the collection was $4500-$5000 (as it was originally listed). We publish openly and publicly the market value of each toy on our website. We paid $2800 up front. Much (half as i recall) of the collection was not received. I offered to return the collection, but the seller became unreasonable stating that I had better deliver all items (even the ones that were never sent). Why is this suddenly being brought up 3 years hence, out of nowhere? But look at the other reviews here and on facebook and throughout the Transformers community, our reputation speaks for itself.
