those are over 6 times as much though! wow...I can't imagine dropping $120 plus shipping just to get those 3 figures when if you found them in the stores it would be $18 or so...

Checked completed auctions, only 6 have been sold by two different people. 3 by the above guy, 3 by a guy in NC
I'd say these guys ordered a good amount from BBTS and are selling those. I'm willing to bet these haven't hit retail yet. I guess with all the wave 2-3 singles and stores with errors in their inventory wave 6 is just sitting in werehouses right now

The price is a little high for me. But someone will get it, there is a sucker born every day...

That guy must be smoking some seriously good crack. His prices are ridiculous. Alot of his stuff is overpriced. I hope nobody is foolish enough to get suckered by him.

The world has lost it's mind. We've been suckered by the media's sell on instant gratification!
It's the governments attempt to stamp out the little guy.

This is just the perfect excuse of people being impatient and having to have something first. If the people who were buying these just waited a little longer, they might be able to find them at wal mart or target for alot cheaper.
But i guess if you have the money and you don't mind shelling out that much for a figure, go for it. To each his own...

Yeah just saw the CC is sold, I'd imagine they all are.
The guy buying these will probably find them at WalMart before this guy even ships them out LOL !

C'mon guys. We could all totally buy all of these toys from this guy and not lose a small fortune.

Wow. Talk about impatient. I can't believe these people would pay such a price for something that will be on shelves soon.
$10 - $15 I could go for, but $40??!!1 Geez.

I don't even think it's a matter of impatience. More like stupidity. If people would realize the stuff just came out, that it will soon be hitting their local stores, they wouldn't have to bid on such ridiculous auctions.
