I make it 30+% more

KAWS Star Wars • Boba Fett, Darth Vader, Stormtrooper , by lobster on Dec 29, 2015 23:43:33 GMT 1, Many thanks for the Maths lesson Dungle.
My point is that if this member had contacted me when I initially posted then he would have indeed been able to purchase the toy at " around £900.00 " - he didn't - he chose to contact me over 5 weeks later.
During that 5 week period the exact same toy sold on Paddle 8 for at least ( as they don't post final prices ) $3600.00 - this has now caused me to want to increase my price and frankly I don't think I should be an apologist for this ??
Did the guy who now accuses me of " reverse time wasting " ( whatever the fuck that means ) in fact realise that one has since sold for well over double what I was initially asking and now wants to make an offer ??
What he should have done is to buy the toy when I initially put it up for sale as opposed to crying like a spoilt child because he missed his opportunity ??

Dungle was merely pointing out the increase & did say he did not want to be involved in any argument between you & anyone else. Sometimes when things do not immediately come onto the 'radar' as to speak with any Forum Guardians who are here to assist/mediate in any problem, a long term standing member who knows the ropes of how the forum runs (or should!) smoothly may actually make a friendly intervention.
Don't take it as an attack. But please do edit your first post.
Oh & no lesson needed on my behalf

Next time I'll make sure to track them all and then pick the highest one to adjust your asking price accordingly. Even though this is for a private sale and not an auction.
Sounds reasonable for a toy, that is neither signed or numbered, but might or might not be limited. I think labx rolled out a couple hundred more recently, rumor is they used the same factory and left over packaging.
I agree prices have gone up, but that is probably bc of the movie release... once the hype dies down... maybe the prices will be deflate, especially as bootlegs get better and tougher to spot. I'm certain the bootlegs will handicap the price of this piece. There really isn't much stopping them.

What's the old saying..."you snooze...you lose"?

That being said i'm sure its disappointing to a potential buyer that the price has changed and wasn't noted on the sales thread.

Would have been nice if he told me before the dozen emails (Hence the time wasting). And thats not the problem either.
It just rubbed me the wrong way bc he made it sound like i was crazy for offering 900, and called me a baby.
I don't like being called a baby. Wha wha

For someone who values there time so greatly you do seem VERY keen to come on here and keep moaning ?? It was you choice to come on here and start criticising me - if you don't like being called a baby then my advice would be to not act like one ??

KAWS Star Wars • Boba Fett, Darth Vader, Stormtrooper , by lobster on Jan 2, 2016 17:17:56 GMT 1, Have a Boba Fett for sale and am looking for £1200.00
Just to be transparent ( and for anyone who didn't read the insanity of my older thread !!! ) I did initially sell one for £900 around 6 weeks ago but I know the last one on Paddle 8 sold for at least $3600 and I saw Wetners had his for sale at £1200 which is now sold so I think that is pretty fair.
Many thanks indeed.

After the following:
Kaws Stormtrooper
Kaws 1000% Chomper Bearbrick
Kaws 1000% 2002 Companion Bearbrick
All must have original packaging, and would need many photos to prove authenticity.
Thanks!

Because of the lighting it's unclear if the indent in the weapon has black paint on it, or if it's a shadow. But that cone/ball thing looks to be the authentic one. Like so:

You can see it's painted black in the gaps in the close up shot, and the bolt is rounded.

you might think what a idiot pays 100.- for a kaws and belives its real? well he also sold me a old dusty big buff monster toy signed from 2008 also for 100.-......
