What a douche. Like what, your WHOLE purpose of going was to just buy 1 thing and flip it? Otherwise you wouldn't have gone? Clearly a bargain, dick head.
I wasn't going to mention it, but now that it's out there. gotta feel bad for the guy who's place in line was just after the last one was sold. how much were these puppies selling for anyway? i was the guy who was in line after this dude , he had no clue what he wanted, he had been standing next to the table for 20 mins. I told him "good choice" when he bought it, haha!

What a douche. Like what, your WHOLE purpose of going was to just buy 1 thing and flip it? Otherwise you wouldn't have gone? My thoughts exactly. they're not doing anyone a favor at this price... ...or do I need to go to a "flipper sensitivity" workshop or something? If the person is on the board, sell it to me for $150 and move on. Take one for the team in the spirit of the community. we'll all forgive you and you can enjoy yourself on the boards with a clear conscience. plus loads of good toy karma will follow. life will be better all around.

It's a shame too, since it's such a gorgeous paint job. What a jerk.

 Re: Gargamel at SDCC 09
Thank you all! Nate's posted his SDCC loot on our FLICKR and I am slowly doing mine. Here's a pic of the Killer. There are more angles on there as well. I owe Kris (wtfunks) big for this one.

 Re: Gargamel at SDCC 09
My personal "best moment" in the Gargamel line on preview night was having meczilla in front of me. We were chatting about what was on the table, and he said "What do you think of the orange miborah?" I said I didn't like it but was thinking about the green. He passed on the green miborah and went for a zag instead, and definitely made my night a whole lot better  he gets SDCC VIP in my book...thanks again dude!

I wasn't going to mention it, but now that it's out there. I don't know who is the bigger douche the person flipping it or the person who actually bought it for that price.

Nice piece but 650? That's more than double original price.

 Re: Gargamel at SDCC 09
Still way cheaper than the 90,000 yen to 99,000 yen camouflage Zags on YJA, those weren't even one offs, tack on fees and conversion rates and nearly 50% less than either YJA camo Zag.
Expensive dc escort or custom not even a tough choice.

 Re: Gargamel at SDCC 09
It was $300, I know from freakishly stalking flickr pics to find out due to morbid curiosity. So the dude made $350, which paid for his SDCC tix, parking, $4 waters, it's a deal, it's a steal, it's the Sale of the f****ng Century!
