[WTB] Quarry figure

Hello! I'm looking to buy a Quarry MOC figure. I already have one loose but would love to have one still in the package. Please let me know if you or someone you know has one that they would like to sell. Thank you so much!

How much are you looking to pay for her?

I think there's one on eBay right now that's bundled with two other 2K3 figures. I believe it is/was listed at $125. A few months back, I bought a MOC one (bundled with a foot soldier) on eBay for something like $75, and it sat at that price for a few days before I finally pulled the trigger.

People really don't have the money to spend on toys like they used to, or I probably would have tried to raise enough money to buy that lot and then break it up.

Heh. I regret not dropping $2K a few years ago on a huge lot of the Playmates statues. It was a huge lot that, in hindsight, could have been flipped for way more.

I actually saw the figures that you guys have mentioned on ebay and tried to get the seller to just sell me Quarry alone. They wouldn't budge though and I haven't seen one by itself for a while. Honestly, I really want one moc so putting both of these recent auctions together I would like to pay $50 for her. I can't see someone paying that seller $125 for the 3 on ebay. It was already on before and nobody bought it so it is a relist. I feel that $50 would be fair. Do you have one that you are willing to part with?

Unfortunately, no. The one I bought was the first I'd seen in awhile, and Quarry was the only 2K3 series figure I couldn't ever find at the store. $75 was worth it to me since I hadn't seen anything lower when I looked around. Wait until the auction closes again, then make another offer. Sometimes the sellers stubbornly hang on, but other times they'll reward your persistence! Best of luck.

I had a MOC one years ago that I think I stupidly opened. It was a gift from ------- ------. I don't remember who I sold it to loose/complete/very near mint. I think you should go back to that seller with an offer of $75 or $80. It's not like there's ever gonna be more of those (probably).

I do remember seeing a few on there a while back for under $75 but maybe that is longer than what I think it was haha If I saw one for $75 again I would def. be tempted after hearing from the two of you. Thank you for the the tips and the good luck wishes! I will be messaging him for sure if it closes out with no bids.

That is what happened to me! haha I actually got lucky and found one at the Wal Mart in my area. I got a Karai with it that day too and they both were eventually opened. Dumb move on my part haha So I have a loose one that's on display on my computer desk. That's true! This is the first one I have seen since the $75 one that I Crave Pizza No More picked up. I'm going to keep an eye on the auction. Do you both think that this is and could be the Scratch figure of the 2k3 series someday?

It might be eventually, but it isn't now. There aren't any others out there right now (to my knowledge) but more will probably pop up. Difference is that people are always getting ridiculously high prices for Scratch, and there's usually two or three of him on ebay at a time it seems.

Yeah, I mean it will take time for it to get the high prices like Scratch. I just meant that I can't think of any other figure in the 2k3 series that rivals the rarity of Quarry. Can you? That's true about Scratch. Everytime I get on ebay I see at least a couple at a time. I would be curious to know how many Scratch figures and how many Quarry figures were produced. I know Scratch is rare but you would think with that many showing up on ebay that prices would drop at least a little. To my knowledge, I haven't noticed much of a decline in price if any.

I don't think Scratch is as rare as people think he is. Bishop is almost as rare as Quarry if not more rare. Gen used to be very rare as well but doesn't fetch the sort of prices he used to...I can't think of any others off the top of my head. Karai is sort of an equivalent to a figure like Hot Spot (or will be eventually, probably).

Really? Wow! I didn't know Bishop was maybe more rare than Quarry. I have one in the package still but the card is kind of bent up. I was thinking and Gen came to mind too. I need a Gen moc still. You wouldn't happen to have a Gen moc that you are willing to sell do you? I have a loose one that I found in Canada when they were first released. Good comparison on the Karai/Hot Spot. That one makes sense to me as I've seen a decent amount of Karai's but they are slowly becoming more rare sightings it seems. I have Karai, once again loose haha, and would like to add a moc for the right price eventually.

I was able to obtain one on Amazon!

[***First of Two Latin Kings***]

Nice! Mind if I ask what you paid for her?

Believe it or, I got a HUGE steal! I only paid $16.99 shipped. I picked up an Agent Bishop for roughly the same price on there too. They were the only two that came up when I typed in their names. I am very lucky and very happy to add these figures to my collection! Both are close to mint too.

D@mn...

Haha Yeah I was thrilled to say the least!
