If anyone's willing to let one go(or wants just Doublepunch but not Scorch and Ravage and is willing to be reimbursed after the show), I'd be very willing to take it off their hands...

Same here. I would like to get the Sharkticon set, but I'm sure I am one of many. If anyone can help, please PM me. I know this is kind of late notice, but we didn't get confirmation on this 3-pack until recently.

Max I'll pay is maybe $160 for a set of three, no way I'm paying $225 for all of them.

I can't believe this guy already has 5 sets. I thought they were limiting to one person until everyone has been through and had a chance to buy, including walk-ins through a certain time this year.
Maybe because he traded for them.. if not the system didn't work as planned.
He's got 5 of everything, just about.. $200 for rapido and cindersaur? Ouch...

Unfortunately, this is what we are going to see on eBay for a few weeks now. The sad part, however, is he will probably sell a few for that price. Knowing that the 3-pack is only $59 at BotCon hurts even more.
You want to talk about greed:

Yeah, I had seen that, also. Fortunately, no one bit. That's the only way the prices will come down is when people keep their heads about them and don't pay those crazy prices. Can't blame him for trying, though, I suppose...

The fact that some of these guys have multiples to sell, is a clear indicator that either the system FUNPUB uses is flawed or they are purposely selling them to people this way.
Either way it's disgusting.
And good luck to the guys asking for help, I've been asking for help with Ravage or Sky-bite for weeks without a decent response. I have no issue paying a bit higher than cost, but $200 for the Scorch/DP set just for Ravage isn't worth it.

I can't help with Ravage, but I do have an extra Sky-Byte. I picked up 1 extra bagged set just for this situation. I'm pretty leary of helping people out (sad isn't it?) unless I know I can trust them. I believe you're one of the guys around here who won't turn around and resell.
Anyway, won't be here for a few weeks, of course as I'm a non-attendee. He's yours for $50 + shipping and paypal fees. I just divided $210 by 5 and rounded up from $42 to $50 my efforts. Total with shipping and paypal would be $65.
If interested let me know, and I will sell it to you.

That price already includes shipping Send me a PM with your email address and I'll PayPal invoice it for you. Shipping is Flat Rate Priority via USPS.

I just realized my eBay link probably makes others think I am a scalper of sorts. The irony isn't lost on me. I honestly just want some up-to-date Sharkticons for my 1986 movie stuff. Oh well. If I don't get them now, I'm sure I will eventually.

Meh, nothing crazy going on in your lists. A lot of us, including me, are guilty of wanting to make a quick buck. We'd want to help, also. As I eluded to before, the fact that there's those lurking around claiming hardship, and then turn around and resell makes me think twice before helping others out in situations like this. Very sad, indeed.

Indeed. Counterpunch sold me a Landshark from last years set at a similar decent price, it is good to know that there are people who are still willing to help those who can't make it.

Hey, it's only human nature. People definitely want to get the most for an item. I don't even mind an auction style listing where a seller is trying to recoup travel costs and such. It's when I see a guy selling 3+ of most exclusives.

Thanks.
The first 5 were sold in a convention set starting a few weeks ago. You'd reserve them at http://www.botcon.com as an attendee or non-antendee. Click the information link on the left for details.
They have since sold out, though.
Slice is an attendee exclusive. It is ONLY given to the 'Primus' package holders at Botcon as a 'thank you' for making the trip when they pick up their convention set. It's 'free.'

Nowhere, now. Everything is sold out. The only way you're getting figures from Botcon now is through eBay or someone selling on the forums.

Love to have him as the mold looks amazing in those colors, but there's no telling what he would go for if anyone is even willing to sell him. I can only imagine the sky-high auction price he'll fetch on eBay once someone does.

But the beauty of the customization class is also your hopeful back-up plan.
It is unlikely due to the cost involved and personal touches that each member of the class put into "their" custom will see many get sold off, but as it is a redeco of the regular Sideswipe, you can make your own from a retail version, paint and a bit of elbow grease.

Wow that is one greeding son of a gun $200 for a free figure. Well hopefully no one gives into some of these prices but that's like telling some of these people out there don't buy the crazydevy parts, everyone buys them up and the products seem to keep growing in price.

$305 for the box set attending or non-attending. You could also add a bag set for $210 extra IF you bought the box set first. Optional purchase.
1800 sets total were made. 1400 boxed and 400 bagged sets. All sold out a few weeks ago.
Posted by LiKwid on June 24th, 2010 @ 9:07pm CDT
The lines went really smooth today.. The boxset looks great and the add-ons are killer.My advice for anyone coming in this weekend, hit the cash lines..Tigertracks and I waited about 30-45 minutes before we got our add-ons so IMO it wasn't too bad. The snafu with the state sales tax was a slight inconvienence but nothing too big.
For those looking for extras I will try and ( note TRY) and grab what I can tommorrow morning..I'm not staying at the hotel so I can't make any guarantees( I got about a hour drive )

With Sky-byte done earlier, I'm done. Spent more than I wanted to, but less than others seem to be willing to shell out.
Happy hunting everyone else.

2 packs are only sold at the convention, at first. If there are any unsold after the convention, they are then put up in the TFCC store.
