Go for it Daxel dude sounds good to me!

Holy crap you paid £71 for the pair? Thats a hells of a lot but you said it you're known for high bids. Why do I get the feeling that seller is on this forum, its all so coincidental if they aren't haha

I know what you mean - i dont mind if they are they probably should have PM me i'm just happy 2 have both premium jotuns and a nice new hyrda

Hope you all get what you want though - maybe they will post more buy it nows?

Must have only just put them up as I did a search 15 mins before you said you had won them....well just have to keep a look out. If they are on this site their keepin very quiet.

Maybe they will, but I know I'd not pay £71 for two, and I can't see danny or daxel101 likely to fork out that much either, but or now I'm keeping my eye on the lots up at the moment

[DarrylWestley]

Worst case scenario: They pull all those lots and list them all Buy it now ;/
I expect they will still go for a high price but £35 a pop, I am not so sure.

Well darryl when ya got ppl like the one that payed $995 for a purple claw, im sure they would all go within a few hours.

Wowsers, £71.

Yeah, there is definitely a disconnect between what Bob is willing to pay, and what everyone else is willing to pay

I also suspect the seller has even more of these, so you could end up splashing out on these, then seeing more come on to the market.

Could well be right there, as it was noted his feedback does suggest hes sold them in the past and horrendously some went for as little as $0.99, how the market has changed in a year or so!

Ok guys, i really want one of those orange Hydras. Am i on my own with this? It would be senseless to unwittingly bid against eachother so please come forward & we'll work something out.

I own a pine Rex, a blue Jotun Troll can wait but i gotta have an orange Hydra!

[Daxel101uk]

Soz guys im out too, just got myself all three for a buy it now! Thanks for the offer though. Tell ya what this seller has a fair few of those particular figs.
Great birthday present to myself LOL

$110 for the Troll and Hydra, then $75 for those two AND the Rex? What the hell was that about?

[dazz82]

I just got a 3 of each so if anyone wants any when they turn up id have 2 hydra, 2 t-rexs and 2 jotun trolls up for grabs.

Hmmm seems very odd oh well still got 2 nice rare mimps (although at this rate they will be as common as red the beast)

Not to mention $160 for three of each, which values tham at about $18 a piece

Given the frequency that these are turning up now, I think we can scratch orange Hydra off the list of rares

Sure looks that way strontium, darryl better alter his website to show this outcome

[DarrylWestley]

Yes, it is rather interesting that the seller had so many of these from a
specific outlet; an arcade promotion. There is still an element of mystery
here Is there any arcade owners out there with a load of these?!

The fluctuation in prices is incredible already... I think the current $75
is perhaps worthy it if wasn't known these things are suddenly in abundance.

Well someone out there surely knows the answer, interesting that this particular seller sold a load 2 years ago and only now has come back with a load more. Maybe they were waitin for the right time to come out again with these and make a killing, Fair play to them.
But saying that I think the seller shot themselves in the foot, they should of waited for the bid auctions to finish first then brought out the buy it nows.

[bigazzhead]

I don't own any of these so I'm interested in all lots, I won't bid on any to do my small part in keeping the costs, down. Well that and I'm sure prices will get ridiculous. But to any winner here who is looking to unload an extra, I have a few premiums I wouldn't mind parting with.


Edit: Well after reading the second page, I don't think I can offer much in terms of trade seeing the prices the buy it nows are going for.

Damn,I totally forgot about those auctions . $20 bucks for 3 Pine Green T-Rex's? Fizuck!
..Well I hope you guys don't get scammed. That's why bidding is so low on all this guys stuff.
Smells fishy.

Well that sucks, at least on the positive side its 3 less figures for me to collect even if I paid stupid money for them, then again so did a few others here so we're all int he same boat. I'm taking a mini break from buying figures for a while as I spent a mint this week on stuff, not often orange ganesh, blue jabberwock and a bunch of american premiums turn up. Just wish they'd do so not all together next time!:-D

[DarrylWestley]

Ha wow, where was the bidding war?! Man at those prices I wish I had a punt
Glad most people got what they needed even if the prices were incredibly flexible.

[Strontium Dog]

Obviously I don't need three T-Rexes, so I'll be looking to trade the other two away.

Unfortunately RareBob had already bid $45 on the Hydra and Jotun Troll auctions, and I wasn't about to pay more than that for them. He ended up winning both of those lots.

Dont worry it wasn't my intension - but couldn't cancel my bids - they will be sold/ trade back here no worries
