    Default Nifty's Toys and Games

    Hey guys, I'm back on here again after a long absense... just wanted to post my ebay store categories, I got new stuff in lately-

    Star Wars Transformers

    G1 Reissues

    Generations

    Revenge of the Fallen

    Also, the main website will be updated with full shopping cart within a month, I also now accept Visa/Mastercard, and the shop at Coventry Square Markets will be open early 2011

    Forgot to mention: 10% off for all Ozformers members! (includes non-transformers merchandise)

    Samlo, I'm competitive with them especially since they're US based and to get a good deal including shipping, you'd have to buy a fair bit.

    Apologies Primetime, the site is being redone so from time to time may be down- try http://stores.ebay.com.au/Niftys-Toys-and-Games for the complete stock listing.

    They're Japanese based with good shipping and we often do group buys here.

    Not to cause offense but this isn't really true. Several items from your eBay store are available from RobotKingdom (based out of Hong Kong) and can be purchased (shipped individually) for around 5 - 50% cheaper depending on the item. Once you've got your shop/stall up and running though you should have a bit of an advantage. And it's always good to support the local guy. Best of luck.

    Can we not pick on the toy dealers who are just advertising their stuff?

    Sam - you can just check RK yourself and compare prices without making a point of it. You may not have meant it, but that's how it ended up.

    Everyone else - we can't be harsh on toy dealers/online stores that can't compete against big entities like RK or BBTS or even retail chains. These smaller operators aren't trying to undercut those bigger businesses... they are offering items that may be more convenient, or reliable, or local, of just no longer available for less elsewhere. Having a smaller turnover means needing a greater profit margin. We can't crucify any new business or dealer just because there may be a cheaper source for one/some of their items sonewhere else in the world. If they aren't able to sell anything to members here, then that's just the way is is then... they may well be selling enough to other people who don't know or don't care about foreign options.
