    So you guys think this is for her personal collection?
    Maybe you don't know angel abby. Last year the dude bought a beautiful Miborah that was purchased through angel abby instantly if not a pre-sale, but maybe I'm reading this wrong...carry on.....

    Looks like components were sold (immediately sold out) in a Gacha machine outside the store.

    I'm looking forward to the trade threads for these guys. Should be fun to try to build them.

    Maybe optimistic given the majority were probably bought by local attendees and traded and exchanged at the event.

    There will be more down the road, I'm sure. Patience is your ally.

    Nice.
    The recent release of the micros in the US at the various online shops is also a (hopefully) good sign of things to come.

    Edit: Fixed awful grammar.

    I know what people think angelabby does.

    Just saying, having someone mule items from a show doesn't strike me as particularly nefarious. Unless the guy bought half the items there or something.

    Muling for a personal collection is one thing, muling for someone to resell is another. You're right, it could be innocent muling, but who knows. We'll have to wait and see if one of these ends up on the BST or elsewhere.

    ANYWAY.

    Looks like micros and the Moai Bot parts were available at Super Festival too, at Mitari's booth.

    This wouldn't be the first time they walked away with half the items from a Thrashout show. There was a photo a few years back that was showing off the dozen one off Miboras they had scored from a single event. Not easy to swallow when you have been to one of these shows knowing that it is one custom per person.

    TRUE STORY:

    Last year same dude was in line and bought a Camo Miborah. That Camo Miborah was offered to a board member through Angel Abby.

    Last year, Lucky Bags, This year Angel Abby and M-world contact board members via e-mail or whatever and offer them pieces for crazy mark ups. I think that is shitty.

    If you know that dude and said hey, can you go to x event for me and get me x and he helps you out.....that is an awesome dude. I don't think the above makes him or her really for that matter awesome.

    Was going to post that photo but looks like it was taken of Angel Abby's flickr. Multiple Miborahs, Zags, and Deathras from that show...

    That all ended up on YJA at the same time because I specifically recall those auctions.

    Two different points though are being made. 1) Helping someone out and 2) angel abby shady business.

    I wanted to post that after I got their email, but wasn't sure if regurgitating M-Worlds prices was cool.
    Nuts, plus you still need to cover shipping and PayPal fees?!

    The prices are just way off the mark coming from a seasoned reseller.
    Or am i the one that is ignorant of the prices?
    I cannot believe any will sell at these levels.

    As consignment I'm willing to bet the seller is open to offers. So go big and let people talk you down.

    It's just sad to see this many 1 offs end up here. Espscally 3 of those gorgeous cyborgs I would have loved a shot at.

    ^^^ I think that's the worst part. I would be so frustrated, saddened, and furious if I were Gargamel. It's really a shame.

    And as consignment, I'm willing to bet the true seller is Angel Abby. :|
