That’s why tariffs don’t work. It’s kind of too late for that to be effective anyway. What happened with previous reports saying toys would not be affected?

Time to scalp! I bet the farm on the theory that Joe fans never buy shit at reasonable prices, but only for 2-3x that price later on the secondary market. So I figure retail sticker shock will make my "modest" markups look reasonable in handsight. lol

I maxed out a 5K credit card in less than 6 months buying up FSS and Con figures. You can believe I was furious when the GIJCC Store started clearancing a bunch of the Final 12 figures out.

Seriously though, anyone expecting to realize an ROI on their toy collection is in it for the wrong reasons, I think. You bought to enjoy these things, and so long as the enjoyment happens, the rest doesn't matter. It's just a long-running gag that Joe fans will complain about an Eaglehawk priced at $40 at TRU, but will then pay $100+ for that same toy a few years later on ebay.
