Quick everyone, accessories for the same price as complete loose figures!

Just been reading on FB the guy that sold it, Scott Kinney to James Gallo for $7k!

So 600 pieces average out at around $11.50. There's a healthy markup there on almost everything he's selling.

The mind boggles that 600 ACCESSORIES sold for $7000 in a bulk lot, I would only expect to average $5-10 per complete figure on that kind of volume. I dread to think what the total he sold them for individually is!

Quick everyone, accessories for the same price as complete loose figures!

:lol: That's what I thought. Along with "I really hope you don't sell a single one". Nothing but greed there.

I know it's a hideous markup but the guys a dealer, it's what he does for a living and anyone who says they haven't brought something Star Wars cheap and made a heap of cash selling it at a gross markup is either a liar or nickIOW.

The answer is not to buy it.

I've never sold anything Star Wars but if I did I would make **** loads of money! :lol:

I don't mind dealers. Never have never will but there's a mark up and then there's greed. This is greed.

Swerving Facebook today not because of Star Wars, but the amount of armchair detectives. I've never seen the phrase "false flag" so many times in one day, mostly coming from people who don't even know what it means.

 

[wrighty]

WTF is "false flag"? :shock:

Sailing under a Union Jack to allow you to approach your target and then revealing the skull and crossbones. I assume the context Edd meant was related to the Manchester bombing and earlier speculation about the perpetrator

I did see a regular poster called Giles earlier today on echo base start spouting about "killing muzzie bastards and dumping their bodies in the sewers" and unsurprisingly starting a shitstorm.

Cue offended people going ape **** and removing themselves.

I think I may stay off social media a while. As if the world's not depressing enough, every moron now has a platform.

Echo base appears to be down :?

I had a read up on that as it was posted across via screenshots on another group... sounds like the admin took the side of the guy that started it all off... bad form. No wonder people are leaving.

Not the first time he's spouted bigoted views either.

Can someone point me in the direction of the screenshots please.

The guy in question is a little awkward socially and possibly a little autistic imo, which goes a small way to explaining behavioural traits.

I found them linked over on Jawas Outpost page.

WTF is a Pacman Yoda, and why does it double the value?!

Shape of the black paint of the eyes Edd... just another thing to sucker variant albeit paint error collectors in.

 

[Richard_H]

It's to gobble your money

 

[spoons]

Recently discovered I had two of those Pacman Yodas - think I sold one for about £45 so not a massive mark up on normal Yodas, which go for around £35 I think. $80 seems high to me.

One of the older variants and more tangible than the coo variants in my opinion
