That one (Vadia Starscream) wasn't too bad, I thought, at about US$139 I think. It had a slightly damaged box and window that wasn't noted on the listing (they used a stock photo, in that and another listing), but since it isn't unique packaging, it isn't a big deal for me. But would be extremely annoying for a sealed collector of a rare expensive toy.Originally Posted by i_amtrunks
Thats one big lot to pick up Griffin, you use a crane to load that into the back of a flat bed truck?
How many overtime hours did that set you back???
But yes, a fair chunk of overtime was done to help me catch up on quite a few figures this month, including a number of expensive limited edition figures.
BBTS. I got about 50 toys this month, and all were imported. BBTS is expensive with shipping, but a bulk buy like all that makes it close enough to retail here to make it more convenient. I really miss the hunt, but I don't like wasted trips to stores that either don't restock often enough, or have prices that are difficult for me to accept.
The last local purchases I made were Mudflap and Inferno at TRU some time in early July.
If our prices closer reflected the US or even HK prices, I would be happy to go out hunting, even if it meant coming back with just a solitary figure.
