Talk about torturing me:
I buy a lot from these guys (PlayCom) in DVDs, CDs, etc.
But they do NOT ship figures to mainland Europe, only the UK.
Why oh why?

So close, and yet so far.....

They are in their closeout section. Not moving fast enough for them. They are struggling and closing most mall locations. Have a small display in Macy's now and their flagship NY store.

Wont be long before they are history. People just are not buying the toys from the overpriced stores anymore.

And I just bought the last four at my local comic store for 15.75 each!

They closed the mall stores several years ago. The big stores are still there in NY and Vegas. They opened over 200 stores in Macys since the fall. And the plan is to continue. Not all stores are staffed though. In the Detroit area, there are 3 staffed and about 6 smaller unstaffed stores. Sales have been low, but picking up. As for overpriced, the items are more money than TRU, but they are a higher quality and will last longer. I just sold a stuffed Elephant for $700 this week, so someone still has some dough in this tough economy. The stores in Macys don't carry action figures. It is geared toward the younger crowd. I was surprised to see this stuff on the website.

You're lucky....My Local FAO Shwarz (NYC) were all sold out of Cap'n kirks. However, one of the reps told me that he believes that the Cap'n Kirk they had was from the 1st issue. He also stated that the Emce ST:figures were selling very well....mostly to adult collectors. As he was restocking the pegs for the Emce ST section; Wow!!! I swear there were at least 15 carded figures on each peg (I've never seen so many Star Trek figures at once like that) and all for $9.99 @. I picked up Uhura and Mugato (two for$20)....Great deal!!!

In case anyone plans on placing an order of $75 or more, Eric had posted on the first page this discount code FREESHIP813 for free shipping. Thanks Eric!

Gee, I spent some time yesterday trying to find a discount code other than free shipping and wasn't successful. So, I placed my order. Now, I just found a 20% off discount code (HOLIDAYSALE) which expires tomorrow. Anyway, hopefully others could use it.

I just ordered a full set of ten, it came to $100.38 with tax and shipping.
Now I can populate the new EMCE bridge coming in the spring and keep some carded ones.
