That's been my problem with these too.
It looks like these two might be 2,500 yen each though, that's not too bad....

Is that a SET of 3 or each? I think the price we're seeing on the new 2 here from KT are EACH not for both.

No kidding? I could be totally worng too, wouldn't be the first time...
Yeah 5500 each put me out I'm affraid.
Celga might not be a terrible option if they are on a site that will let celga buy from them....I think it would be like $12 in fees ($10 buying fee plus $2 for bank fees) plus shipping...

yes a set of 3 at original retail, which KT isn't, as they're secondary market distributors
For example, this set will probably be around 5,500-6,000 yen at WF:

Even if you bought them through Celga on YJA, you would have to buy them at less than 1500 above retail to come out ahead.
I imagine S7 will be getting these, as with other Charactics items, but their prices are usually comparable to K-T + shipping.

Charactics mini King Walder set, clear uncolored with internal organs insert - $120 per set

I don't know if they get wholesale from Charactics. Why not write them and ask?
