At the moment I can get nothing. It sucks that Fun Pub doesn't take paypal.

Thinking more on it (and I’m NOT trying to be a Club apologist) but maybe the increase is due to the tariffs imposed by the Chinese?

Yep, any thoughts I had of picking up any of these went out the window. This is why I started making figure customs.

The Chinese didn't impose tariffs on product coming INTO the United States. We did.

Here’s some proof of Fun Pub screwing us over. Sounds like the shipping price is (unlike FP) a reasonable charge. To me that’s proof that their increase in the FSS installment payments had nothing to do with any shipping cost increases. That was simply “doing it because I can” on Brian’s part. Screw you Brian and good riddance to Fun Pub and their member abusive practices.

I really would have been all in had the pricing been at FSS levels (although even that was too much). Now I'm going to have to save up and see what's left when I can afford them. I missed out on Heartwrencher this way, but what can I do?

I thought I recalled someone with or associated with BFS mentioning the tariffs affecting them. Maybe I’m wrong.

Holy crud. Remember back in the POC days, when figures were $7.99 each and people would bellyache about the high price - then wait for the $4.99 sales prices?
12 x $7.99 = $96 (for really awesome POC figures, mind you) now its $526 (for repaints) For the price of one figure nowadays, you could have bought seven just a few years ago. There is inflation - and there is extortion. |
