fossilrock Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 HAHA! Glad I bailed on these a month ago and made 5.00 per set while blowing my last few out. That 15.00 now burns a hole in my pocket. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrabslayerT Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 I can only assume this is in US only, as these vanished here around a month ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zskid00 Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 It seems like just a few years ago they were selling these for $1.99. Oh how I miss the low prices and individual barcodes. It made it so much easier to army build those Spartans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest brickcrazyhouse Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 qfll'ing: maybe one or two figs per set longer term hold: ha! personal collection: not any more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stackables Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 For the sellers out there, not sure how you can make any profit from selling any of the figs individually. $5 for the fig, $2.6 to ship plus fees. Not seeing much profit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
