 Re: A Nag Pa I Root
Greg I say leave it at least it gives people a chance who frequent the board and ups peoples chances who entered.

You mean ONLY $850  Even at half that price...they are too much  I would definitely enter if they were what like 20k yen like they used to be? I was legitimately asking because there's no way i would put an entry in for that kind of money. Cool looking toy but just not worth my money at that kind of price.

 Re: A Nag Pa I Root
if 28 of us pitch in 30$ each we can hold a raffle.
split it into 8 pieces and form the split nag crew for 106.25 each.
4 people could share it seasonally for 212.50 a piece.
recast 4 from the one and feed the original to the four.

What if I just want one of the eyes? Can I put in for just one eye?

 Re: A Nag Pa I Root
i for one am glad that this thing is the price that it is... A. I can't afford it so I won't contemplate getting one. B. Flippers will think twice about picking this up giving ballers a chance to get one at non flipper prices. C. People making this shit will get paid instead of just breaking even D. Maybe the next time the hype train starts rolling you kids will think twice about screaming 'all aboard'

 Re: A Nag Pa I Root
winner gets first pick and rules them all, the rest raffle for the 7 parts. shoulder would kinda suck, i'd be happy with a hand or foot.
i guess we could dissect it down to eyeballs or lashes but we would need to work out the value on a Nag lash

 Re: A Nag Pa I Root
opportunitylol wrote: Everyone should dump their toys I'm paypal ready hahaha. Seems thats the attitude a lot of the collectors around Nags have. Of course, im generalizing. In all seriousness, this is ridiculous, if someone that is a collector of these toys wanted to be able to collect them he or she would have a miserable time AND basically be forced to look for them on the after market. The only thing that this does is poison a hobby such as this even more so to the point that other makers begin suffering the same ills. The short span in which these are being released and the price not only alienates the collectors, but it also fosters a predatory behavior that a lot of us fall prey to only by association. Great sculpt, decent colors and fair exposure, but goddamn it! It only hurts everyone. Shig, mishka and whoever else plans this: Please, get a fucking grip, its not art and cannot be curated as such, its a damn toy and your practices help no one, but your pockets.

 Re: A Nag Pa I Root
You know, there probably wouldn't be any drama if you weren't selling your dollies for nearly 1k at fucking retail. Who cares who the fuck drew the header & possibly selected colors for a paint app.?! You want no drama? First of all, nobody likes to pay a middle man. How much of $850 does the pimp get? Try releasing toys at a realistic price point & stop generating hype, adding to the aftermarket value so that you can up your retail price justifiably. Hype is like a balloon, you keep filling it & filling it with air until it eventually busts & then it's just over, you're still there with your million dollar collabo dollies but no one gives a shit bc the balloon burst & now your shit is just lame. Seriously, 4 & 1/4 Jordans for a nag? That's like 1600 Double Cheeseburgers, 80 Lamour Supreme [expletive deleted]'s, 48 Buffmanster cock rings from Cock Ring Warehouse, Half an iMac, a quarter pound of weed, 4 months at Jenny Craig... cmon!

 Re: A Nag Pa I Root
This thread is about drycleaning now. I manage a drycleaning business. My loyal customers constantly complain and berate me over my prices. They tell me my service is not worth it, and sneak in some snide comments about how I must be an idiot without an education, etc... They constantly I FART A LOT, yet week after week they come back, surrendering their money over to me for a service they think is too expensive. Some spending $200+ each week! I wish they would stop bitching and just go to another drycleaners! I know we have the best service but there is a cheaper guy 2 doors down!!!! Go to them and stop complaining. I certainly am not lowering my prices anytime soon!

Is not that we dont like dry cleaning, is that the place I go to for mine is starting to get swamped with orders from delivery boys that frequent THIS dry cleaning joint, y'knowwaddaimean?

 Re: A Nag Pa I Root
apples & oranges bud. I've never bought a nag ever. If there was a cheaper guy 2 doors down I would go to him though but that's not how rad fresh designer urban vinyl sofoofy kaijooz work. There's just the 1 talented dry cleaner + now his lazy stoner friends who wanna jump onboard his successful endeavor trying to get something out of it for themselves & maybe even a little dry cleaner scene cred. I would by one if the price was reasonable & I liked it but until then I'm just gonna complain about how much of an asshole the dry cleaner is.

Shig should make a Nag that rolls his eyes whenever this thread pops open in the browser.

Got me to pay attention. ...seriously, way i figure it is yes, it's damn pricy - the Nag - but if ya don't want it, don't buy it. And seems flippers do better % wise off other toys anyhow. Guys ask + get like 300% profit on shit like MVH + hell, Star Wars. Nags seem to be closer to 125% flipper profit most of the time. (cept that Iggy on Mandrake for 4k... wtf) ...and with the price increase, figure that's pretty normal too. I mean The Sucklord usedta charge like 30 a piece, now it's 85. And that happened in like 5 years. And Greg, if yr bailing, whose gonna take over? Shig direct? USA Govmnt. Bonds Deptmnt?
