$280 for Soundwave? Don't you mean $180?

[Sureshot22]

was going to ask. thats a $100 mark up.

$40 up on the twins but seen others sell for that. or try to.

is it a typo Dan?

[Window]

That is a huge markup on that soundwave

[Slayback]

Why would you guys assume its $180? Even some of the other online stores have it over $180 before shipping and taxes. The MP Soundwave is not the same size as the autobots -and it is (likely) heavier. Shipping on him is going to be more expensive- also sometimes the supplier sends via some obscene Fedex way where you get hit with a 50% shipping of the gross amount? And - there are stores like that.
Customs? You don't always have to pay up front - you can get 'assessed' the amount at a later date. Ya it happens.

Go look at BBTS, Automaton Toys or Ages 3 and up and check their prices, 185-190. Automaton toys is based in Canada.

[Slayback]

So what does this prove? BBTS - 185$ Tfsource $190. Does not include shipping or taxes or US conversion or paypal fees.

AGes 3 and UP $185 - so you pay what 13% tax plus shipping.
Same with Automaton who is $190 and doesnt even have the stock. What are you trying to argue? My argument is to not assume that its $180. That it might likely be over $200.

[Msol]

It's just that it's MORE likely that it's a typo.

[Slayback]

I'm going to point out - original comments were that Soundwave might be $180 and that yes it might be a typo - but why would you assume that its 180 rather than let's say 270 or 240?
