Guest davidwhangchoi Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Yamato 1/60 VF-1J V2 30th Anniversary with option parts http://page6.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/f128541373 Yamato 1/60 VE-1 Elint Seeker V2 30th Anniversary with option parts http://page7.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/g125282143 with a proxy service, what will be the cheapest final cost for the above two, i think Gakken mentioned it would be about 80-100 on top of the winning bid? are there proxy's that are cheaper or are they similar all across the board. looks like alto's 171 are getting posted higher (haven't sold yet, just seen it posted) but it's listed on mandrake for 20,000yen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dimis Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 (edited) Yamato VF-1S Max Type: http://page5.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/e139195409 This bidder has bid on ALL recent auctions of new Yamato valkyries, of at least 1 item. He's either someone who came into new money, or a scalper of the real scheming kind... who will clollect them and sell them all together in 10 years for the price, of ehm, a small flat in Shinjuku perhaps.

Scyla Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 I don't know if this scheme would play out well. I feel that toy collecting as an investment has the same problem as collecting comics for a payoff. Now everybody takes good care of their toys (and doesn't play with them ) so much more units will be available in the future reducing the value of the toy in the future. It's not like the early 80s where kids played with their Takatoku Valkys until they getting destroyed by a blow torch. As another negative side effect it seems that modern toys have a death clock implemented so they will self destruct in their boxes even if the were never taken out. So I don't know if this is a smart move. I could be wrong however. Maybe the bidder just recently (re-)discovered his love for Macross (dare I say Robotech?) and as a lot of play money.

Guest davidwhangchoi Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 (edited) very witty comeback:) pretty accurate history of why yamato didn't do so well. hopefully, everyone will buy and pre-order and not wait for clearance sales or arcadia may not last...

Valkyrie addict Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Is this esthertool guy a god seller on ebay?......someone has buy it something to him?......sorry for the offtopic and for my poor english. Thanks from chile No, he is more of a satanic seller Do NOT buy from him, have a look at the blacklist on the sale and trade section. He gets mention at least every 3 pages. esthertool is a HK seller on ebay, that goes also by the name cherrytab and another one I don't remember. You can tell easily by his "1000% genuine" item description. He usually puts a valk for a reasonable price as buy it now/best offer with free shipping, if you make an offer, he will then give you a counteroffer that's higher, adjust the buy it now price to a higher one and claim some bull about free shipping. If you do a buy it now at one of his fishing prices, he will claim damage wet box and refund. Far as I know, only one person got something from him. But everyone else who's tried to deal with him has the same story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
