Is April really worth $900.00!!!!!

This person is selling an original no stripe April on EBAY for 900.00 USD. Is this considered price gouging!!! lol. I'm not that new at collecting these figures, but I believe you can find her much cheaper than what this guy wants! What do all of you think? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MEWA:IT&ih=017

Who is going to pay that much for an action figure? Do Star Wars action figures even sell for that much?

Star Wars action figures sell for WAAAAY more... at least some of them do. Some of them sell for tens of thousands, like MOC 12-backs with Double Telescoping Sabers, and of course the holy grail... Rocket Firing Boba Fett prototypes. Mego World's Greatest Superheroes figures sell for hundreds or even thousands.

But April... or any TMNT toy for that matter...

This guy is a fool. A durn fool.

Myteefinestuff is even considered a price gouger by many (in my experience hes really reasonable for loose stuff, but forgot most of his on card stuff). Anyway, he 's got one that is 10-back for 60. Hes got one for less thats in worse condition.

$900.00 for April?

Ugh. That's more than a wee bit high for my tastes.

Only if it was the real-life April for a weekend of intense love-making...

900 bucks for an action figure? No thanks.

Ha ha! Agreed! I love collecting figures but there are so many things I would do with $900 before buying April O'Neil. Shame on this dude.

Maybe it was an accident and he meant to put $90?

I think this figure is only worth $100 at the most....I got mine for $10. They usually go pretty cheap on ebay because they're not in very high demand....gotta love how ebay has changed the collecting market.

Notice how (at this point, at least) there are no bids?

Must be blind. I've seen this same figure, MoC, on ebay at least five or six times just by browsing. One was even selling for as low as $25.

He should really go back and edit his listing then.

If it were this April, then his price would be too low.
