Was it Aquatic Neon who offered it to you? He's kind of a super toy scalper, so I wouldn't buy it from him tbh. >_> Just wait a bit and see how the prices settle as more people find them. I've seen people saying they sometimes find them for $40~$50

yeah i asked him just in case and when he said 70 I KNEW. i also didn't know you were on the arena until that thread, i joined when i wanted to re-buy some old friends of mine :>

i would pay 40-50 for sure. if you see anything lmk but i check often enough i think. i just hate the new global shipping program on ebay, i have to message people to remove it from listings before i can buy anything >:U

i guess i'm just kinda disappointed in all the male scalpers, i know a lot of them do like g1-3 but seriously, i remember when the arena was just friendly people with good prices. people would bend over backwards to help other collectors, but now its more about how much cash they can make off of FiM. rip...

Yeah my friend and I did some digging on that guy and we found his ebay account where he jacks up the prices on things he buys (even from people on the arena). He's nice enough I guess, but I won't buy from him because I know he's a scalper. That's why he kept buying all the glitters in all the stores near him. For me, since I'm a collector I usually stop when I find my own set, unless I'm looking for one for a friend. I just don't understand the scalping thing

ugh that sucks ): i'm usually pretty trusting of arena members too. i figured he was just trying to get a glitter or two with his first order but then he started buying all the glitters from local hot topics...

thank you for thinking of me. ;-; i ordered 3 when they were discounted but nothing. i would go to a store myself but OOPS CANADA. any help finding it would be great since i really like the funko figures and i was waiting for twilight for ages, though i would have preferred unicorn only.

i'll message you if i need help on ebay. the stupid shipping program charges customs fees in advance, upwards of $10 for a $20 purchase, and that's on top of shipping and handling and the seller doesnt see any of that money. you can't even see how much extra you pay until you commit to buy, and that is ridiculous because we don't even pay taxes for that shit here!

oh also, i don't know what area you're in since i know you moved a bit, but i'll be hitting up disneyland with a friend of mine from may 3rd-8th if you wanna hang. :U

Huh, I was wondering what was with Aquatic_Neon. He's also on the Funko forums and he was like, "you better not be in the same search area as me" I guess now I know why :/ I'm looking for trixie and twilight too, if I find any more I'll keep you in mind :)
