I forgot to post this. This was on ebay months ago and I thought it looked like Bulma in a bathtub. I was going to buy it, but it sold for $6 plus shipping, which was more than I was willing to pay. No idea what anime it is from and the seller didn't know either. Apparently a figure of this already exists...? he almot never knows what he is selling lol. buys out peoples collections then lists them on ebay... i have no idea how he makes money when most of them sell for $1 or less |

He buys items in bulk that aren't very valuable in Japan and resells them to Americans who don't know any better at inflated prices. Amirite?

yeah but most of his items SELL for $1 range. thats why i'm saying i dont know how its worth his time on more than half the items, the odd few (usually slutty figures) sell pretty high but not many

Maybe they're bought in such quantities that selling for $1 allows for profits?

That is much more expensive than what would cost you if you buy it from a Japanese website.
