Did it shoot up after the con because people were holding out hope they'd have it at the show?
I paid $123.84 on eBay for the set the day after it sold out because I never did the pre-order, expecting to combine it with another purchase later on. The club probably made as many of them as they were able to sell of the Sub-Viper set, because they often seem to have a hard time understanding relative demand for the products they sell. They wouldn't have made the Snowcat HAVOC or the blue Shark if they had a clue what products people really wanted. Last edited by JediJones; 07-31-2018 at 04:06 PM.. |

I'm still looking for a set myself. I waited for the last minute and then I ran out of time.

That is exactly it. I did not pre-Order but I did intend to buy a set. I was going to wait until regular release in the Club Store and just didn’t know that wasn’t going to happen. With their shipping prices it is a good idea to combine. I remember the day I looked into the pre-Order there was another couple of items I wanted so I didn’t pull the trigger since I didn’t want to pay for shipping twice. That ended up being the only chance I would have had at a set.

I joined the club just so I could order one of the sets. Kicking myself in the butt for not getting the second one.

Possible answer...that and the fact there aren't many options on ebay at least except for outrageous buy it now options for both figure and vehicle. Mine was figure only to highest bidder, the only one on ebay at the time.

Like many of you I could not pre order because there were so many other things going on. Saving for the con and other FSS. It was bad timing and I certainly thought there would be more in the club store. I was banking on it. I really don't understand the clubs reasoning for this. Don't know why I'm surprised though. She is now a missing piece of my Nok nation. And the Ebay prices are crazy.

I was waiting for it to hit the Club store as well, so i could combine it with a few other products, to save on those ridiculous shipping costs.
That didn't happen, and i'm definitely not paying the current prices, so i guess i'll never have a Heartwrencher figure. Oh, well.. |

I should've bought two on eBay for $125 right after the sell-out because reselling the 2nd one now would've amounted to getting the one I kept free.

I think what you meant to say was "I should've bought two on eBay for $125 right after the sell-out because then I could have given one of them to my good friend the gunslinger."
