 What an a**hole! http://page2.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/b74313640
Same dickhead that wanted $450 for the pinstripe CRONICxGARGAMEL.
This is beyond flipping - more like somersaulting!

I'm not defending the asshole but I don't really blame these guys too much for listing their auctions so high. They wouldn't be doing it if people weren't paying stupid prices in the first place.

Did someone pay $800 for those 2 minis?! If so, then I'd have to agree that buyers are part of the problem. I just get annoyed when these auctions go on for months because sellers are being ridiculous with prices - the pieces just sit in a pile somewhere not being enjoyed by anybody...

Buyers, with deep pockets and no patience, are part of the problem.

Here's a thought...how about the manufacturers make these a little more easily available for collectors to purchase them as well.

I'm not aware of anyone paying $800 for these but they have paid $400 which is a stupid price imo. The set retailed for 5000 yen for chrissakes.
