Post subject: | my apologies... |
it has been brought to my attention that some people feel that i make atrociously low offers for secret base figures. i would like to offer my sincerest apologies. i am new to SB(just over a month into it) and i am not hip on what current pricing is(hell, i dont even know what most of the figures look like...i have to ask for pictures of everything). i am not set up through yahoo japan or celga or any of those things, so i dont know the going rates. i also dont really search ebay too often, so i am kinda out in left field. i offer what i think is a fair price for something(which from my experience is what i see through super 7, etc), and i never intend for the other party to get offended. it is just my naive secret base side coming out. also, please understand that the offer i make is only a starting offer, feel free to let me know that the going rate on something is higher than my offer, etc apologies to those whom i have offended. apparently there are a few who have had their feelings hurt -david- |

Yeah, what he said. And you're not the only new person here. Don't beat yourself up about any of it. |

Don't worry, no one should get offended about pricing right now. There is no fixed price on any of these items. I think some of the figures are overpriced (most skull bee and all Honey bees) and some are still cheap in comparison (skullbrain, ghostfighter). I agree with Frank I think the prices on most figures will drop but the hard-to-find figures may become can-not-find figures. |

It makes me feel better to know retail YEN price when the toy was sold as a new toy... That doesn't mean I'm not going to pay a crazy silly price if I want it bad enough but I have to have a starting point. |

here's my strategy - for what it's worth: since there are only a few actual figures (skull bee, skull brain, obake, etc.) which are released repeatedly, I try to find the sculpts I like at issue prices (or close to it) in any old paint job. This only works if you are not overly concerned about what exact colors/extras/etc. your figure comes with. |
