What a kick in the nuts. Those are some INSANE prices, looks like everything is sold out though.

I want a single Virulent Clone from 2005, which sell on ebay for about $70, but buy-it-now dealers have them listed for $300 & $1000! As if they are in high demand.
The price on of the ones on the archive sales were $70, but shipping was going to be $45. Too much for me just wanting one of the pair (I sold off the second one in 2005 because I had no interest in duplicates, but since then, BotCon have had a couple of other 3-pack duplicate sets... so now keeping those, my 2005 shelf is incomplete by not keeping the pair as they were sold).
I looked for other things to cart (to sell off) to offset some of the shipping, but it was mostly boxsets still available, or toys that I had trouble selling off the first time around. I was tempted to get the Stunticon boxset, but that's a lot of money to risk someone here still wanting one for at least AU$500 (based on its price and shipping in US$).
I carted the 2007 Springer & Huffer, and it only added $2 to the shipping... but a quick check on ebay and the pair are selling for well under the US$75 price on the Club Store.
So I ended up buying another Pirate Clone pair (Pounce & Wingspan) which only added another $9 shipping (they were really popular this year, so should be less risk)... so I'll have those and a Virulent Clone eventually for sale in the Saleyard.

They still have the Stunticon pack available - $400 is well out of my current price range but if anyone else is still looking I'd grab it fast

I haven't looked (and it wouldn't still be there) but i'd love a Shattered Glass Megatron one day..

FWIW loose sets of the 2011 Stunticons can be had for much less than $400 - $500. You can grab find 'em for less than $300 if you're willing to hunt around a bit.

The best stuff is long gone, but if you want Octopunch, Spinister, Razorclaw, Elita, Landquake, Breakaway, Banzai-tron, Skyquake and more, there's still time.

I must have grabbed the last of the Virulent Clones, as it is discontinued now.
