I can understand it if people bought them out of fear that they won't be released. Usually is Viper has it though... that means its being mass produced as we speak.

Some things make sense, buying from VK. I bought my SDCC SE for just over $22 from him. No other way I was getting it outside of a trade. But paying $100 for a figure that you may be able to find soon enough? Or simply taking the time to pre-order when they were available? If you end up completely WRONG about the availability, you can always pay $100 down the road. I don't see the need to pay those silly amounts...certainly not NOW. Of course, some people have money to burn and simply can. I'd spend my money in other ways, but then again...I'll defend the American way to the death. Have at it, plastic crack addicts! ;)
I have seen it too many times before where everyone tell everyone to be "patient" and then guess what they never show up or get cancelled, especially the tail end waves....patience doesn't always pay off...you snooze you loose...especially with Joes..

It varies, sometimes it can take up to 3 weeks. It all depends on how fast the origin post takes to prepare the shipment after Viperskingdom drops it off at the post office. Still it won't be long before these are shipping from HTS. I can understand to some extent , I did buy an Eaglehawk from viperskingdom for $75 , but with expected release date this close at hand I won't be buying any of these.

I've never understood how Hasbro can say that they don't track individual character sales (since they're all attached to the same sku #), and then turn around saying female characters don't sell well.

I kept reading that a few people were buying from Viperskingdom because "the retail release might be different..." I'm thinking, the ones from VK ARE the retail release... smuggled! lol

It all started with GI Jane, the nurse doll from the 60's. A huge flop. Worth a ton now because no one bought them as kids and now adult 12 inch collectors want to complete their collection.

So, they're making statements based on 50+ year old data? Doesn't surprise me...
