!The Panic thread! *buying frenzy*

There´s an almost-non-used VF-11B here in a auction site in my city, but for about 200 USD I think it´s expensive...

Opinions?

I think I payed $190~195 shipped when I got mine back in late 2010 when it first came out. It felt like a good price at the time.

Not sure if it is panic buying or my biennial return to Macross collecting.

In the past month and half I've picked up...

  • VF-171 CF (the one that sucked me back in this time)
  • VF-25G renewal
  • Hi-Metal VF-1S Strike
  • VF-1S Hikaru Strike v2

Some super parts for the VF-25G and maybe a VF-25S or VF-25F renewal reissue and I should be happy for a while.

Initially this thread was about panic buying yamatos because they were bought out at the start of the year and people were freaking out that nothing would ever be made again. Since then Arcadia has announced the Anni vf-1 and the vf-19 so it's not as panic'y as before.

But any buying is welcome! :D

glad to have you in this evil, evil hobby.

I bought most the Bandais when I was panicking because I couldn't find a decent Yamato price and I needed a Macross fix. B))

Hi guys.

I´ve ordered a VF-171CF and the Arcadia 30th Ann VF-1J.... (quite strange not to write Yamato there...)

I just couldn´t resist...

I think it's not so bad, especially if you consider that you won't have to pay for shipping to Buenos Aires + customs fees. I'd go for it.

Already sold.... :(. Excuse me while I´m going to smash my head to the nearest wall....

Well... still waiting for the others....

Oh, my VF-17 came, btw ! What an amazing piece of finger-killing-art !

David - do you ever open your stuff? or do you just collect closed stuff?

unfortunately, every things closed... except, i take one out (it's a cheap vf-1a mass production) for about 5 mins to fly around then put it back in the box to look at. i wish i had room for display cases. so staying in boxes will have to do for now...

There was a guy on the Buy Sell Trade (BST) forum selling a Millia last week or so for $300.

I messaged him and posted like 3 minute later... maybe sooner?

He finally responded a day later and said somebody beat me to it. Never said who, or how much.

Anyway, the other guy was on ebay and had it up for $110. I asked him how much he wanted and he said make an offer. I offered him $150 and he took it.

Hah!

You know, I saw an auction on eBay for a Millia with a stand -- but it was a V1. You didn't get a V1 did you?
