Wow, too many to bother to list, but a handful of series 3 MIMP have just been posted by a variety of sellers, all with pretty ludicrous starting prices. It always interests me how some sellers seem to have done some research (see the blue Blemm auction) yet still list for crazy prices! Just take a look over in my series 3 price tracker thread and you'll get a rough idea of the price things are going for of late.

Even the much rarer Orange T-Rex usually goes for less than that.

Between that and the NR Goblin which has been re-listed about 10 times already at over $100, eBay is annoying today.

In case he ends up changing them, these are each listed at $200. I can't even. Shouldn't this guy have more of a clue by now?

Ha, I came here to post about that yellow cockatrice as I've been after one and the purple variant. Looks like you already beat me to it. I'm guessing $200 isn't a fair price. why priced so high?

WTF!!!?? I take it you've seen the rest of his new MIMP listings!? £99 started prices for series 3! Over £130 for NG Cyclops! I could go on all day! He is an absolute extortionist/fantasist if he think those prices are even anywhere near reasonable! The biggest shame is the fact that some noob will buy them!

His new pricing system must be to multiply market price by 4 or 5 prior to listing.

I'm so tempted to message him and ask where he's getting his prices from. It's not like I'll ever buy from him, so I'm not bothered if I annoy him by asking.

Probably just hoping someone will bite, but I can't see anyone paying those prices. Let us know his response if anyone messages him. He needs to come back to reality.

I keep sending him lowball offers. He never responds, but it amuses me.

Just curious what a normal price would be for a yellow cockatrice? So I can weed out the crazies.

I'm not sure if this is the norm, but I think I got mine for about $8 on eBay. It had minor discoloration though.

I think I paid $30 for mine, but I can't remember for sure.

Thanks guys. Looks like the yellow cockatrice sold, but I highly doubt it went for $200.

Wow. I sure hope it didn't go for anywhere near that.

He dropped the price by $10 since I posted this, so now it 10% less overpriced...those prices are meaner than a junkyard dog.

I have purchased several battle beasts from him back in 2012 (I believe) - all at really good prices and in good condition. They were often in the $4-$7 range w/ weapon. I expected them to go up slightly over time (figured that's good as a collector) but they all start waaay over that now, including the MIMP as has been mentioned here. I'm not sure why he went so extreme w/ the prices across the board, and where does he get the endless supply of LRG? I've given that exact seller positive feedback, but have since deleted him off my favorites list and simply ignored the ridiculous prices.

I keep sending him offers around the market price, but he just ignores them in pursuit of a sucker, I guess.

He bids on large lots and then resells the figures from them. I know I have been outbid on lots by him before, and it irked me being outbid by someone who is only bidding to resell. HIs prices are so ridiculous that most of his stuff doesn't sell though, so I don't really know how he makes a profit from doing this.
