Post Marmit SAH Spectreman price check please!
Image

So this baby is new in box for $65, but shipping is hyper-high. Dig it, they want $24 for SAL and ( :shock: )$42 for EMS! Jeez....

Well, this is one piece that I'd love to get, even eating the shipping but I wasn't sure if the Marmit 1/6 S.A.H. Spectreman figures are hard to come by or if the $65 is a good price.

Thanks for any help :D

$100 shipped isn't too bad really...depending on how bad you want it. I don't expect it to appreciate any more than that.
HA! I did a search and Heroes club sells them (or doesn't sell them) for $438.00...unbelievable :roll:

There are some on YJP for less...but then you have deputy service fees ++

Here is the kana to check them out...

スペクトルマン マーミット

right - with the dollar to yen SUCKING so bad right now (something like 1 dollar = 86 yen. WTF) I thought the $65 was a pretty good price. Heroes Club has always been beyond expensive and I still, to this day, do not understand who is paying the insane markup. Portland (or Seattle, whichever their store is at) ain't THAT expensive!

Thanks for the help mate!

Heroes Club is in SF and has always been the barometer for insanity, even when it was SF2 in its former location.....

That price is about right.I bought one a couple months ago for 90$ shipped.

The Marmit Maguma Taishi is the figure that usually asks for high $$$

Remember, there are two distinct versions of the Marmit SAH, the Standard (shown in the opening post of this thread), and the DX (I have the latter, which comes with two heads). There were three distinct Spectreman suits used on the show, and if you owned both Marmits, you would have all three heads. I would imagine that the Standard should be more expensive, since it was usurped by the DX version. So, the price you have been offered is reasonable, especially since this item is OOP.
