Re: BUY NOW! SUPER RARE! (idiot!)

I don't really care either, this happens all the time. The people who buy this just run the risk of being stuck w/ the item or selling it at even or at a loss.

It's when some people buy up an entire region of an item that is jaw dropping. I'm just laughing at a certain someone in my city who bought up almost every MP Grimlock from TRU at the time and expected to sell them all at $100 each, lmao

Are you more upset at the guy or Amazon for ripping people off?

Wow, what an idiot. Amazon is the absolute worst place on the internet to get accurate selling prices. The Transfomers: Matrix Of Leadership Box Set currently sells for over 450 dollars, LOL!

Re: BUY NOW! SUPER RARE! (idiot!)

The listing on Amazon isn't even Amazon's price. It's some store using Amazon as a selling route. So even THAT path isn't a good point of reference.

Re: BUY NOW! SUPER RARE! (idiot!)

I kinda like the toy, but it seems like a lot of money for something I'd kick around my floor.

You're right! That theatre bag of popcorn can't cost more than $1.73, even with butter topping and overhead included!

Re: BUY NOW! SUPER RARE!

I think when people put things up for sale they should be realistic. Do some research. To add 10-15% to an item isn't unreasonable but sometimes can be confusing. Especially if trying to cover the cost of shipping that was paid. You pay $50 for something and cost $25 to get it. Well that $75 as you may well know. So if the seller asks $80-90 then thats realistic. Just covering the initial put out. Nobody want to take a loss. That sucks. I also hate people that over charge shipping to make profit off the purchaser as well. That is shady. IMO

Tell buddy I'll take 2. I can resell them at $250 each. Any takers???

Re: BUY NOW! SUPER RARE!

I don't see anything wrong with the person who is selling the item... if you don't like the price, don't buy it. The item belongs to him, and the money belongs to u. However, I would totally feel sorry for whoever buy this, because that price is just ridiculous....
