Post Mandarake site no more fun
Anyone find any cool deals on the site anymore? Used to be fun to constantly check back to it & maybe ge lucky and score a gem... but now if they have anything milding interesting, it's overpriced. Just wanted to say: bummer.

I don't mind even paying overpriced. But they don't seem to have anything at all anymore.

It's a great resource to match up header cards with figures.
Other than that, I haven't seen anything eyecatching in a long long time.

Last month I ordered a half dozen things that were supposedly in-stock but got the email 5 days later saying that 5 out of the 6 things weren't available. BUMMED...

i've scored some good stuff at good prices off Mandarake and I still check back daily.

It does suck that there isn't any good vinyl lately

Theres not much in the stores either and what does show up lasts a couple days at most unless it is an undesirable piece. Missed a KT mini glow Zag the other day in the shop, didnt have $30 to spend! Went back the next day and gone! :(

What they really need to do is remove items that are already sold out. I hate looking through pages and pages of stuff that just has the red "Sold Out" next to it! :evil:
