New 2018 Mego and investment

[thunderbolt]

YES, just check on eBay and most of these people ( I'm assuming they are people) are selling these at 2-3 even 4 times
the store price, I haven't checked them all, just the Trek figures, some are even selling the Mirror figures seperatly way over priced.

So to answer your question Corny, those prices you quoted, are coming close to that on eBay as we speak.

But are they selling? Listing them for 60 bucks and getting that are two different things. I got Drac off ebay for 24 bucks

I got a Dracula off ebay for $17 shipped, and an Action Jackson for $11.99 shipped.

I won two other Mego figures for $15.99 each and one for $16.50, all from the same seller. How can you sell them for that and not lose money? Those prices are shipped prices. Shipping these figures is kind of expensive.

Probably not selling at those prices, (at least I hope not) I wonder if these eBay clowns will end up lowering the price
if they get frustrated enough. Getting Drac for $24 dollars was pretty good, the seller made a $10.00 profit, but if you couldn't find it at your local target, then you did pretty well.

20 years from now ,will they be worth $$$ .low i mean really low numbers -maybe,errors-maybe ,but i dont think the figures really will be.most people who buy them keep them on card ,and
there will certainly be enough to satisfy the collector market at that time. check out figures from 20 years ago ,when a lot of people collected star trek ,star wars ,marvel figures ,etc .and you can get them
really cheap on ebay .only a couple figures that were chase figures or extermely limited are worth the bucks . i bought all the mego 2018 figures -twice ,why-? ,not for the investment in 20 years ( ill be to old to
give a rats behind )but just to take one out ,and one to keep on card cause i really like the packages style .10.000 run is not large ,but not limited to the point of being worth much money ,the emce figures,bif bang
pow figures and figures toy company figures are much smaller runs ,and they wont be worth much either .there were only 1.500 daredevils ,thats small ,we will see ( i hope ) if its worth much at that time .

The only figures that "might" go up in value would be the Bela Lugosi Dracula & Jimi Hendrix. Those are the two that are possibly short at the stores, but you can ordered them on Target.com for the same price so maby not.

Actually Bela has been unavailable on the site for the past couple of weeks... perhaps because of all the eBay prospectors!

that was shipped first class so take out 4 bucks or so for that. Plus the seller paid tax too. Seller really didn't make much at all.

Did you get the shipping for free? if so then the seller didn't make much of a profit, plus they also pay eBay fees for selling.

yeah, 24 shipped. It was cheaper than driving around here looking for it, too. Since Corny seems to be hitting all the Central FLA Targets and hoarding

Once you hit your mid 50's, playing the long game feels less enticing. I 'm more of the mind to just enjoy them.
