Series 9

[Dan]

Oh I've bought an item or two from hiim over the years as well- sometimes I think he stockpiles so much he occassionally does toss out a decent deal or two. But he is is always the highest for quite a while, and he appears to enjoy gloating with the pictures of piles of Yodas, Han Carbonites, etc. I guess it is his seeming endless supply and over the top prices that combine to make his auctions irritating.

I didn't realize that was him posting the auctions with pics of piles o' Yodas 

That is kind of rubbing our collective noses in it, isn't it?  He probably swims in a giant pool full of Kubricks, a la Scrooge McDuck with his money vault.

[JediJman]

Well we all better hurry because at those prices they wont last long. 

OMG.  Does anyone ever actually pay over $200 for one Kubie?  That's insane. 

Um, anyone that owns Sacul probably fits in that category, so virtually all of the collectors of Kubs that you happen to be asking that question of.   In my defense it is the only Kub I have paid that much for. 

Like I said, Insane!

The entire hobby is insane...Star Wars in general.

True to some extent. Kubrick collectors tend to spend more on individual figures, while many collectors of modern Hasbro stuff seem to spend similar amounts, just spread over more figures (buying dozens of clones or whatever). I guess it depends on your priorities. And of course it's hard to stay with one particular category of collectible as well. I thought I was more or less done with props, but somehow ended up buying one of the eFX stormtrooper helmets yesterday. Of course, I'd rather spend $400 on that than on a couple of Kubrick chases, but that's just me.

Whoo hoo! It's that time gang, I received an e-mail from RoBBy. 

The following items you've ordered are now able to be delivered or will arrive soon.

Bring it on! 

[BrentS]

So does that mean the incessent tracking begins now?

[Jeff]

No, this is just the "please confirm your order" stage...  ...which leads directly to the "time to call the credit card company and tell them the upcoming $4k charge from Japan is not fraudulent activity" stage.   

The "incessant tracking" stage beings when they actually ship them.

So this is... make sure I have $400 that I can send to Jeff stage.  **starts lifting the couch cushions**

I just noticed on eBay that a few singles of this series is being listed & the seller mentions a release day of July 10... today! Sure is a far cry from the 31st, guess we shall see if more pop up. 

NEW Medicom Star Wars 9 kubrick Clone trooper

[Dan]

All Right! I hope they are correct, I would love to get these before the end of the month!

[I Am Sith]

Crap, looks like I need to get my $400 a few weeks earlier than I was anticipating...  Let the chase hunt begin!

[DSJ™]

Yesterday I get the confirm your order e-mail, I get home from work this morning & 3 more e-mails from RoBBy. CC authorization complete, another for confirm your order & lastly the order has been shipped. Holy crap, that was fast.

This order was a small one for me & the 1st time I did not order a master case since series 1, I only ordered 2 boxes as a local collector & I are involved & I get to open them all. If I get any chase figs fine, if not then I'll be on the hunt for them. Next week should be another Kuby week from the postman. 

I am guessing that Jeff should be having his massive order on the way, best of luck to all. 

[Jeff]

Yesterday I get the confirm your order e-mail, I get home from work this morning & 3 more e-mails from RoBBy.

I got the <INVOICE Mail> and <Card Authorization Complete> e-mails last night, but no <Shipping Detail> e-mail yet... 

Maybe later today... I'm hoping...

[Dan]

C'Mon shipping notice!!
