Indy PF Dilemma

[The Ween]

Okay.....what would you do?

I bought an non-exclusive Indy PF for $199 shipped some time ago. It's still in the box and I only opened it to inspect it. Sideshow just sent me an email saying that since I didn't contact them about my waitlist conversion, that they are sending me an Ex. Indy PF. I completely forget that I had this on waitlist still, and I never received the email saying that my waitlist converted. Since it's so late, I can try and cancel it tomorrow though I would rather have the Ex.

So, would you do? Try and cancel it, or get it and sell the other one? The Reg is still available whereas the Ex. is still on waitlist on SShow's site. I've never sold a PF before and it kinda scares me to do it. Help me!!!!!!!!

First off, get him out of the box dude and put him on display it is the best PF ever made let alone of Indy and Harrison Ford. Let the EX go it is useless how often do you see Indy with out his hat. Save your money and get him on display !

 

[LOTRFan]

Keep the Ex, and offload the regular; even if you never display it with the hatless head (which is quite cool btw) it will hold it's value better down the line.

You got a good price on the reg so you should come out alright.

Not a dude.......

Anyway, the reason he isn't displayed is because of remodeling, once that's done he'll be out. I thought the same thing about the hat, but I'm an exclusive whore! Right now I don't need to add another $300 charge to my credit card though, but if the Ex is worth it over the Reg, I want to get that.

Ugh......why did this have to happen now.

Thanks for your reply. Out of 25 people you're the only one who did.

Thanks. LOTR! I never sold anything that big before.

Awwwwwwww.......we posted about the same time.

You got the regular at a great price. I'd keep it and forget about the EX unless your really concerned about a possible increase in value.

 

[Agent0028]

Personally I would cancel the exclusive, but if you really like exclusives go ahead and get it. It's not a bad investment should you ever want or need to sell it. I don't know much about selling, so I can't help you much there. It scares me too, altough there are a few things I wouldn't mind getting rid of.

 

[Silent December]

Ya know, I have the exclusive and honestly it has never crossed my mind to display him without his hat, so take that for what it is. like someone else else said, I wouldn't worry about the EX unless you specifically know you'll want to unload him down the line. Keep in mind that it's rough selling anything right now, ChrisCJ99 has been trying to unload his since 05-21-2009 in the for sale board and nobody has bit.

I have the exclusive and have yet to display the exclusive head. However, didn't the exclusive version have better paint apps? I thought a good few of the non-exclusive looked really dark.

I hadn't heard that before, I though it was just random.

 

[The Ringer]

People can hardly give away the ex version at the moment and the price you paid for the regular is a steal so I would just keep the regular.

Not sure Scott buy mine looks perfect, not dark at all.

 

[The Ween]

Some Regs had dark paint and some didn't. I've seen some that were really dark.

There are some on eBay that are getting around $250 for the reg. Not sure I'd want to go through all of that for around 50 bucks. I guess alot of it would depend on what Sideshow tells me tomorrow morning. I got the email at 8:30pm my time but didn't read it till after 9pm and it was too late to call SS then. I have to wonder what happened to their first email. Even my deleted mail is put in a file for a week. Can't find any sign of it.

Thanks everyone! I just needed some opinions on what to do. Wish this had been the Bezerker waitlist convert!

I'd keep the Ex and sell the regular. As others have said, you got it for a great price, so getting your money back shouldn't be hard pressed. Then when you get the Ex, you have more display options. I'm still in the valley of decision whether or not to have my Ex head painted to look like KOTCS Indy. I picked up the KOTCS Collector's Edition and have the 1:4 crystal skull. If I get the head painted, I'll be able to swap him out from hatted head fertility idol to unhatted geezer w/ skull.

Good one!

I've got 3 figures already charged to my credit card and this PF is really gonna hurt.

No problem.......I've been called worse!

Well, if you list the regular now, cash will be in PayPal within 7 days and in your banweeweeount no more than three days after that. Then it's just a 24hr step to transfer it to your credit card. Hurtness lessened.
