Just playing devils advocate on this.

My MP10 was free so it makes no real difference to me.

I believe it is too good to be true myself. Its just too far below the retail price.

It is entirely possible, but it is being sold by Amazon and not a third party. It is the correct number/ID.

If it is real and honored at the stated price, it is a steal. Anyone who wants one and doesn't jump on it, will be afterwards.

You would be labelled as a dirty rotten scalper and forced to wear a Scarlett S on your chest for he rest of your natural life. For shame!

Actually, with the pathetic sense of entitlement that much of this fandom has... This is not too far off. Personally, I would have no problem trying to recoupe my costs. Heck, sell it for what the market will allow. Just wear your flame proof vest if you try to sell it on TFW.

I bought 3 for close to this price during the tru sale.
I think around 70 and for a little while people were demanding you sell at this price...

Then tru announced they were done with them...
And people started offering me 150.

Even if this drops the price for a while, who cares?
It's still a limited release figure that many will have remorse over not getting.

Yet no one bats an eye when retailers ask for even more...

Think even some of sponsors list mo10 for 179.99-199.99.

If anyone deserves to make some money back o. Something like this, it's the end users who pay through the nose the rest of the time.


Ime, you shouldn't need a business license to scalp.

I do hate it though when professional resellers go around scooping up on sale tfs or limited release ones so that none of the people who have their hearts in it can benefit.

I don't like scapler not only because that they jerk up the price, but also because they usually are so fast at grab the toys and leave me nothing to find.

That would make sense and be understandable but why do they mention P.O. boxes when filling out address forms if they won't ship to them?
