    How about semi-stupid sales, like that time the Whitney Museum gift shop sold bootleg M1 and Bullmark recast candles for more than an actual (reissue) toy costs?

    I have seen those on Etsy. A museum store sold those? WTF

    Oh that's obnoxious. It's a candle, it's going to be destroyed. $150?!?

    This probably isn't THAT stupid, because at least the エビレオン (Ebirion?) is still awesome.
    But that poooor Galabaden beak :cry:

    Also, this isn't an auction I guess. Sorry, I'm bad at this.

    This is still up at a lower price, but I took a screenshot when I first saw it. They're asking $150 now. No head! But "very rare" :p

    You might as well throw the whole eBay sofubi section on this thread. I swear people just operate like vicious fun these days and just list every toy they own at a stupid price, ready to sell if someone is dumb enough to pull the trigger.

    Sometimes I just chalk it up to paying Loren a finder's fee.

    I guess it's all about what you're hunting for on Vicious Fun. I've snagged some great deals, but it's invariably random crap that no one's interested in.

    My contribution to this thread are the $40 Secret Base headers although most of the Secret Base search could sit here comfortably, with seemingly no one having a clue where to pitch pricing.

    I like that seller. Sometimes they peddle lemons which is more my thing these days, but monkey business is good business.

    Never knew what was under that odd fish eaton. Unlocked!.. And I never had to buy one, but at that price I’m tempted.

    I've wanted a Bullmark Tiger Seven for a while now. I passed up an opportunity to purchase one a couple of years ago that I thought was too expensive at the time thinking I could find one for substantially less if I was just patient. Since then prices have jumped 200-300% what that seller was asking. :x

    That auction is way beyond what I think collectors are willing to pay or value the figure at. Max I'd bet anyone would dish out for a clean specimen with gloves is $2K. I'd expect to see a price tag like that for one still in a well intact package.
