Re: So, just so I know, when FT releases something "limited" like FT-10X, is that it?

Metallic blue Gundam marker might work.

Thanks, but it looks like at this point, you can't get an X in, or to Canada for less than probably $500, often $600. I'm considering taxes and duty too. I just can't justify that right now. :/



Believe me, I wish I could...

So, I happened to get an unexpected, last minute contract job (I do photography) and so here I am, again, looking at this fool! lol


I'm unsure if I should go though one of the ebay sellers, or through one of the few stores that still have him, but at a higher price. I tried to look up what the duty would be on him but, unless I've missed something, toy figures have, no duty, just tax? Is that right or did I pick the wrong categories on the duty calculator page?


Another thing that I've noticed since the decision to buy was postponed is that a LOT of the X's on ebay are just sitting there, not getting buyers, probably because of the asking price, so I'm also wondering if I should actually wait and see if these things actually go down in price a bit due to them being priced higher than the market is willing to pay.



Thanks!

It’s taxable and buying from a north american etailer, it will most certainly be hit with duty etc. An ebay seller from china will write the value down so you can escape tax but at the same time there’s a chance you receive an emptt box also
