I want to know where you're shopping?

Got lucky at another site. The guy was getting rid of a bunch of stuff for what he paid for. The R2-B1 and TC-14 were openers though.

[Jeff]

Another relatively slow month allowed me to stick pretty close to my budget.   

January = $354.99
February = $240.39
March = $100.78
April = $111.68


Stuff I bought in the past month:
2006 Saga Coruscant Wave (2 openers)
2006 Saga Ultimate Galactic Hunt (6 carded)
2006 Target Exclusive Demise of Grievous (1 carded and 1 opener)
2006 Target Exclusive Skirmish in the Senate (1 opener)
2006 Saga Vintage Wave (2 openers)


Once again, I managed to offset the cost of all those figures a little bit by selling some of the extra stuff in my "for sale" list. 


May will be expensive because I still have 8-10 VTSC figures to buy as well as trying totrack down the rest of the damn UGH figures... 

[ruiner]

I need to take it easy this month.  I've already cracked $1000 for the year.

Not good.

So, my total thus far is (including tax)...


Around $140.

[Ben]

I need to take it easy this month.  I've already cracked $1000 for the year.

Not good.

I hear that. I haven't updated my tally since earlier in the year, but after buying two sets of VTSC and 11 exclusive ML figures, I'm at like $1,300 and it's not even June yet.

[Hemish]

January

White Munny - $20
So What figure - $40
8 assort Dunny figures - $120
16 stikfas - $80
Koto Snowtrooper - $120

February
Vintage Vader - $17.50

March
$87 - 5 saga 2 hoth figures
$118  - Lando mini bust and 2 saga2 figures

April
Astromech sets - $100
Sideshow Luke $95
Series 4 Streetfighter plus shin Akuma - $140

May
Series 1 Streetfighter minimates
Infinity Crisis batman $115

$1053 so far

I think looking at it so far, maybe about $4000 by the end of the year?

[Jeff]

May was a bit busier than the previous months due to finishing off my UGHs, my VTSC, and the H&V Wave 1.

$354.99  January
$240.39  February
$100.78  March
$111.68  April
$179.68  May


Stuff I bought in the past month:
2006 Saga Vintage Wave (5 carded and 3 openers)
2006 Saga Ultimate Galactic Hunt (4 carded)
SWShop Lucas Collector's Set (1 opener)
2006 Ep3 H&V Wave 1 (12 carded)


Once again, thankfully, I managed to offset the cost of all those figures a little bit by selling some of the extra stuff in my "for sale" list.  Hooray for recycling old stuff into new toys!   

June should be quiet again with just the Tatooine wave to worry about, but July is going to be a killer with Kubrick Series 6 and possibly the Endor Wave and more H&V waves... 

[Brian]

I haven't updated in a bit, but I was just totaling up things for May.  I think this was my worst month, with some VTSC, Unleashed, and Marvel stuff all hitting/shipping in the same month.  My total for the month is:

$159.62

What I bought this month to make that total:
2 Unleashed
2 VTSC Figures
Senate Battle Pack
Lucas Family Gift Pack
5 ML/SMC Figures
3 ML Face Off Packs
1 Superman Returns (Lex Luthor) Figure

Hopefully June will be a bit lighter, but its always tough to say when things are shipping.  Basically just on the lookout for the Tatooine wave at this point, unless the next wave of new Galactic Heroes starts shipping this month too.

[Diddly]

May:

5-2:
TSC #010 R2-D2 - $7
TSC #026 Utapau Clone Trooper - $7

5-12:
Skirmish in the Senate BP - $20
VTSC Luke Skywalker (X-Wing Gear) - $10

5-23:

5-24:
VTSC Biker Scout - $10

5-30:

Total (Including Tax/Shipping): $115

Year Total: $378

May was busy for me too... I'm still catching up on the Coruscant wave, but I did snag all the VTSC figures and the SitS Battle Pack, so it works out.
