Re: Power Commander on Ebay
I think TFCon is looking to sell all 500 copies at the show so if this guy is a private/non-tfcon related person I think TFCon is good with it as it will encourage more being sold at the show.
My question coming from that however is what if this guy shows up and wants to buy say 200 copies right at the beginning of the show?

200 x $150 = $30,000 That's mucho loco
No one is willing to take that kind of risk on toys.
I think there will be enough to go around and those who really want one will be able to get one.

Re: Power Commander on Ebay
I know this happens at all conventions, but doesn't having people scalp Exclusives before the show defeat the purpose of having Exclusives, to attract people to attend the show.

I don't see how that makes people not want to go to the show. If anything it makes people that were on the fence think that they should attend and get the toy as it's going to be valuable.

So they can scalp it later?

Re: Power Commander on Ebay
Exactly. People have been doing it with the BotCon toys for years. Now it's Canada's turn.
In all seriousness though I don't see that someone having a preorder for something is going to take away from people wanting to go to the show to add the toy to their collection.

Re: Power Commander on Ebay
I think onecoin believes some people might not go because they think their chances of getting a Powered Commander at the show would be low because of all the units already secured by scalpers.
