I personally know that a few have exchanged hands for less than 400. And/or have been traded for toys way less because I believe if you help people out they'll return the favor ten fold. Anyway Ebay is great but for me it doesn't dictate prices.

HBCoffin wrote: "Flippers are cool, as long as they flip at a reasonable price."  Not my point but as Brian's post on flipping states there is a difference between selling an older toy at a well established price point and trying to capitalize on peoples insecurities in thinking they have to pay a ton for that fairly new toy. Since the established price on these remains astronomical (due to hype or whatever else) selling one for less than half that does not seem nearly as greedy. You don't see many cococrocs go for retail, but that doesn't mean we don't want them. I think the older B.G. releases would definitely meet the criteria for "not changing hands much anymore". What you paid will always be better then more but I think most toy collectors know that certain toys will most likely require them to pay at least some mark up. I'll never get AA at retail but I am happy to have paid what I did and personally feel I paid good prices. I think the vast majority of this community can tell the difference between a flip and a reasonable mark up on a hard to find toy. It is all relative though and the best we can do is promoting treating each other well.

Did that Nag's coat come with it from Shig orginally, or was it added by you? FACTORY wrote: busizem718 wrote:  Frank hooked it up, and after a week of being lost between mexico and new york, and a long drive today through a snow storm, poison 4 eyes arrived safe! Lovely Tara Nag
