Okay guys, a buddy of mine picked up a Renegades Storm Shadow Sunday morning at Meijer. Now, we all know he paid retail for it, but he's looking to eBay it or sell it outright for a profit. So, the question is who is still looking for one and how much are they willing to pay? I can assure you I'm not getting a cent out of this (and I already have the figure), he just doesn't post here and I told him I'd spread the word around. Normally, I can't stand a damn scalper, but...with this bastard of a figure, I can certainly see his point. Anyone who's interested just shoot me a PM and I'll pass any offers on to him.

25 minutes puts you in Shepherdsville and there's nothing out that way. My mom lives out there and all they have is Big Lots.

Hah, I've heard tale that the guy in Lexington that owns Comic Interlude will pay around twenty bucks for one and then sell it for a hundred to one of his willing clients.

Who is paying that much for this guy?! I'd love to get a couple of names. I think I could let mine go for $95. Cut 'em a deal

Hah, you and me both, course, I said "I've heard tale..." but the source is fairly reliable, when he talks to me anyway. But yeah, I kinda wish I'd picked up a case of two through BBTS and sold off the excess for a happy profit.

What's frustrating is knowing that he's got a small crew working the stores of Lexington for him specifically cleaning out the popular items. He won't buy the cases wholesale but he'll pay his scavengers to go out and do what they do so he can mark-up just the one figure. I've been known to buy far too many figures myself whenever I see one of his people standing around near me. It's fun to piss them off.

saw what looked like the remains of wave 3 in 2 different Meijer today.

VSpec · 03-15-2012, 07:05 PM

haven't seen anything lately except random Renegades figures.

on another note, I got my vintage Night Raven today and I'm super happy about it. now I just need some ME Cobra pilots to fly it.
