I’ve always had good luck with Toys Wonderland. Still order some through Sideshow when I’m not in a rush. Found a local comic store where the owner will take 20% off Sideshow price and not change me shipping. Great video as always! 👏🏻

Not older... just "seasoned" :)

Good tips. I always pre-ordered figures I definatley wanted as soon as I could, with a solid believe that aftersales prices sky rocket high. However, I recently discovered this may not always be the case, as I was surprised to see the repaint Boba Fett (non-throne special edition) for just under 200GBP on Toys Wonderland! I did pre-order it, then cancelled due to lack of space and my thoughts on this version of the character's action time. Then this was a bargin I couldn't pass on and yet it's still a good figure.

Honestly I use Mercari but the downside is I’m overseas. I started seeing hot toys here in Japan and then down the rabbit hole I go. I can’t ship to a military base so Im currently shipping all my figures home.

If buying from eBay, make sure to look at the sellers feedback. I personally wouldn't buy from anyone with less than 100% and make sure buyers protection is an option. Look at all photos and ask for more if you are still not comfortable. Also read the description carefully and ask loads of questions if you need. I've bought dozens from eBay and have had no issues if you are careful.

Keco teach them well!

I love Sideshow and have always had a good repore with them. I only had one bad experience with a seller on Ebay some years ago. I had the winning bid on Ebay, on a Batman Begins collectable . Before Ebay had a buyer protection, the seller told me my bid was too low, and that he was selling me one that was similar to the winning bid. After waiting for 3 weeks and nothing going on, I asked for a refund, I didn't hear back from him again until just before Christmas. He said that he'd mail me a refund shortly after the holidays. He never did, and my patience was done at that point. I reported him to Ebay, and he had a fit. So my advice is to check out the seller, and it's fraudulent, report him. Ebay will usually ban him from selling. Nowadays, Ebay will side with the buyer, and you'll get a refund.

Your collection is awesome but how do you feel about spending that much money? 😅 I’m not a collector,but I ordered Sideshow Clone Wars Obi-Wan and Anakin,I absolutely love them but now my whole family is making me feel guilty for spending that much money on a toys. And I’m absolutely torn- I love those figures but at the same time I know that they are right and toys shouldn’t cost that kind of money because they are just toys after all 😢 despite all of that I’m enjoying your videos,thank you!
