Cool little suckers there!

On another note, it looks like we've finally managed to nail down the current market value on some of the high-end carded stuff, since a seller actually had the balls enough to list the Vader and the Sandtrooper without a BIN on them.  Check it out:

$242 carded Sandtrooper

$220 carded Vader

EDIT:  Well, duh.  We know that seller!  8)  Were those yours, or did you recently purchase someone's collection, or just come across an extra of them for a good price?  Hopefully one of the latter choices there...

Um, fill me in.  Since the seller is from Japan, is that Simon?   ???

Yes Jesse, that is Simon.

Yeah, the Wicket is cool but too pricey.  :-\

Be careful Jesse, new seller with a 0 feedback raises a bit of a red flag with me. I'm sure there will be more on eBay.

No worries, I won't be bidding much when a 0 feedback seller is involved.   :)

Hmmm.   I can't find anything on eBay right now.  How much do they normally sell for?

They were both damaged to some degree. The Sandtrooper I knew was damaged when I bought it about a year ago, but I recenly bought another one that is in better condition, so I sold it. The Vader got damaged in transit after I bought and paid for it. The seller refunded me a fair bit of it to me so it worked out well.

FYI, I had a reseve and a BIN on it. Does that make me balless???  ;)

Got completely denied by Robby.jp:

Quote
To: JediMAC Collectibles

Dear Sir/ Ma'am,

Thank you for your registration for the RoBBy Inc. wholesale membership.

After long consideration, we decided to withhold your application for our membership this time.
As you know, we are wholesaler and only deal with serious merchandisers who can buy our items more than certain amount continually.     
And we thought it is difficult for you to keep meeting this requirement.
(FYI, even we approve once, if the total amount of merchandise is not enough in every month; we are going to suspend their memberships. )

We do not allow any personal shopping in our site. If you are interested in Japanese Toy, Souvenir or other related item, we recommend F-para shopping Mall http://www.fpara.jp/. You can buy same item as we provide. Click "for overseas customer" banner on top right section. They will help you.

We are very sorry to notify you for this matter but appreciate that you were interested in doing business with us.
If there is any progress in your situation (ex. opening your actual shop), please let us know.
We will start reconsidering with your new status.

Once again, we thank you for your business and if you have any farther question regarding this matter,
please do not hesitate to contact us by E-mail (overseas@robby.jp) or fax or phone.

Best Regards,

Masato Amagata
CEO / President
RoBBy Inc.

I basically told him I dealt in Star Wars collectibles as a side business (totally untrue, mind you), and planned on ordering a couple Master Cases of the Kubricks for each new series that came out.  That was about the jist of it.

So either you guys seriously lied your asses off in your applications, or the dude is catching on to our little scheme here.  Based on that response there, I'd guess most/all of you are going to get your memberships suspended after you order Series 5...  :-\

Yes, that would be correct.

Well, I know both Adam and myself have ordered more than just the Kubrick Series 5 through the site so maybe we will be OK since we aren't "personal shopping" and at least have ordered a few other things.

I've got two Master Cases coming, so if you want in on my boxes Matt, just let me know...  :-*

I'll live either way, even if they cancel my current order.  I'd just bide my time and buy a full set online, like I should have for this series.
