Ebay sellers says new figures are rare

[cowabunga14]

Today I looked on Ebay and I saw the Multi Arm Shredder and Armorized Shredder on there and sellers said the toys were rare.I thought"Hmm that's not true because u can buy them at Wal-Mart."I just think it's weird how they said the figures were rare when u can buy 'em at Wal-Mart.None of the newer figures should be rare especially if they just came out. :)

They eBay people wanna make a sale. People Jump at anythign that has New, Rare, or Free in it. Its marketing! :)

Just because somethings sold at wal mart doesnt mean it isnt rare.

It all depends on which figures are packed how many per box.

For instance: Marvel Legends are sold at Wal Mart, but that doesn't mean that Deadpool and an Unmasked Wolverine aren't rare as hell. That wolverine goes for close to 300 bucks.

Those TMNT figures might be rare, because I sure as hell havent seen them. Ive seen tons of Space TMNT and Extreme sports turtles, but not the Shredders yet.

But, yeah, just because wal mart is mainstream, and the figures are sold there, doesnt mean the stuff isnt rare. It all depends on what the manufacturer sends out.

I have to agree with Brodie cause I have seen some tmnt figures at ebay and I havent been able to find them at any walmart , toysr us or target but I am still hoping to see if I can find them and skip ebay.

The only place Ive seen Triceratons is ebay, so I snagged a cheap one.

I think what hes getting at is how can a figure that has JUST cam eout already be considered rare? I mean, yea that can happen with some toy lines but we all know for a fact that these figures are showing up all over the place and in a good amount of numbers. Now, they may be rare in your area, but the figures themselves are not particualrly rare. Thats just my take, cuz i have been able to find them all with reasonable ease in a variety of stores throughout the state of Florida. :)

The people selling on eBay are just trying to make a quick buck, and there's nothing wrong with this since there are also people that will buy the figures for the prices they are selling them at. Some people may just be lazy to go to multiple Toys R Us's, Targets, or Walmarts to find the figure they want, so they just turn to eBay.
