what is a "fair" price to pay for a hmv zagoran?

thanks for the pm - the.redchicken!

What did he say?

"...whatever you are comfortable with paying."

In a nut shell...I just said... I think it retailed for 60-70.

I've seen people list it for 190-200 which is absurd.
But one sold on ebay a few weeks ago for 153.

They will turn up on this board and on ebay eventually. Some fair..some ridiculous priced.


Since..I've joined I've seen people sell zags that were old for about 150-160 or as low as 115.

But whatever you are comfortable with paying. I'd say pay. Inevitably, I think we've all overpaid for a least 1 item but for the most part you've got to be comfortable with your own decision.

One pops up on YJA all the time for like $120.

what was the run on them?

I dunno, do any of us? I don't think it was a small run though. I kinda want one, I toy with the idea of what I can trade for it cause I don't want to go through Celgas little song and dance.

I don't know if gargamel zags ever have a set run number.

It seems like a lot of western vinyl will say..limited to 500 or 2000 etc but for japanese vinyl I never really see them post that stuff.

Regardless..I really dig the hmv zag. The coloring is great.

I guess a lot of times Japanese Vinyl companies won't post run numbers because then people would start collecting because of rarity and not for the love of toys.

i just think it's nice to know sometimes that you have 1 of say 50 pieces ever made.

Rarity is a fine line between being special and a strong selling point~.

I think its just nice to own a figure u like regardless of its edition number, like a GID smogun, man i'd be happy to own the last one if I could, even if there was a billion made! Limited editions are a I FART A LOT, but I understand the multiple purpose behind it, thats just the nature of the beast
