Don't count on BBTS as it will most likely sell out in minutes like Magneto due to small allocation.
I second this
Don't count on BBTS as it will most likely sell out in minutes like Magneto due to small allocation.
Is is confirmed that he will come with two diffent bases? Speculative Fiction is Sold Out. Is BBTS the only other US based dealer?
Why would Spec put any up for po so early? How does he know how many he can even get?
Maybe he knows he will get at least X amount. He is also selling Mags for 3k so
I know the Magneto po launch caught him off guard and he was scrambling trying to get some. Him securing Thanos this early is odd. Maybe he has an early guarantee IDK. I'd love to get Thanos from a US retailer to save on shipping.
Like both bases, maybe the cosmic one a little more since it's different.
Can't wait for this to ship!
We are in agreement here Eric although we seem to be in the minority. It would be wonderful to get both bases!
You honestly will not save on much because the retailers are getting so few of them they do not really save on shipping. Therefore their price is already a bit higher to compensate for the shipping. I was originally debating going to a US retailer as well but it worked out better going to a board member.
Not in every case. BBTS is the cheapest by a good margarine on Black Widow and by alot on Hulk. Total shipped for BW is $685. Granted that's snail shipping.
I dont think Mags was sold out in MINUTES....more like HOURS
As compared to getting it from where? If you look at Mags he was 850 from BBTS right? then prob another 30 or so in shipping if not more? It is around the same from a board member without having to worry if you around for the 2 minutes its in stock on BBTS for.
From BBTS? It was like 10 mins literally, maybe less. From everywhere? well Specfiction still has one so I guess its not completely sold out
I just gave you two examples. There is no way you can get BW cheaper than $685 shipped from a dealer and Hulk is listed at $659 plus shipping on their site. Hulk on the XM site is about $590 US then it'd be at least another $200-250 shipping. Now the BBTS Magneto isn't much difference than using a dealer counting shipping costs.
I'm just talking total costs....not the risk of missing out by waiting for the 3 US retailers. With Magneto all 3 places probably didn't have 30 to sell total. For the hot items it's smarter to pay more using a dealer to be safe. Your rolling the dice otherwise.
Hell I'd say less than 10 minutes...once word got out it was up they were gone in seconds.
All I was saying is on the ones I went for the math made more sense to go with a board member over waiting for BBTS. I did not go for anything before Magneto so I cant say for Hulk etc. BBTS is a good deal compared to the other online retailers I agree
I have Magneto ordered through a dealer and BW through BBTS. I plan on getting Thanos and Wolverine so I need to make a move I guess.
Yea the sooner the better it seems with this stuff. If its something I know I really want I try to get it as early as I can. I do not want to regret missing one!
