Scored this lot for just $26, not too shabby since these have been really expensive lately. My set of MOC 25th Anniv. figures is almost complete.

Yeah, interesting as somehow many of those popped up recently for highly recommendable prices. Snatched mine for less than a third of what I paid for the "regular" loyal subjects sdcc 2015 set!

It's not that surprising. That set was exclusive to a chain that closed down at the start of this year. Any remaining stock they had was bound to find its way to liquidation sales eventually.

I just got a refund from Paypal few days ago.
That scammer is an amateur thinking he could get away with it Last edited by Spidergreg; 03-12-2018 at 07:16 PM. |

Yeah, happens sometimes, sucks With my Leo statue I also ran into someone trying to tell me the sword wasn't broken when it was posted, offering me 20 bucks off instead. Right now I'm in the middle of the refund process.

Scored a Mondo Gecko MOC from a flea market for 10$ unpunched. Seemed like a good price. Not sure what he's going for lately.

Just finding this thread... not a toy but I found a first printing of TMNT #3 in VF condition for $4 once, that's gotta be my best "steal" . . . and it was shortly after I found the latter half of volume 4 and Albedo #3 (2nd Usagi appearance) in a dollar bin. (sheesh maybe that was the better steal?!) *sigh* what a day...

don't know if i'd call it a steal or not but at a recently opened comic shop i was able to get an original case full of opened 1989 tmnt cartoon cards for 15 bucks. it had one complete set of 88, 8 complete sticker sets, and a ton of 1-88 cards. thankfully no bubblegum.

Wouldn't say it was a steal, nah. They found a crap-ton of old stock in like 2011 or so & were selling big-ass packs of them in Dollar tree stores. I bought a handful of them for a buck each & wound up with two complete sets for super cheap.

My best friend bought me a box of 90s TMNT figures for around $16 the other day. 21 figures plus weapons and accessories Among them was this guy... No accessories, but so awesome to have one

Is $500 for this considered a steal? It seemed to be to me in the heat of the moment... so now he's mine!

It retailed for $1000, as far as I know, so definitely!
