micahwc Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 Is anyone else annoyed that there are already Nightmare editions of Tara listed on Ebay? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victoria Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 I'm not annoyed, I just think they are dumb to do it now, if they are selling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehren37 Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 Not really. Happens with every exclusive (Gen Con, SDCC, etc). Its also a valuable service for those not offered online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victoria Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 Most of the people that had money to spare and their attention on Wyrd for the moment have probably already snatched her up. They should wait at least a year for profit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonasty Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 Like others have mentioned, I'm not bothered by it. I'm more shocked and amused as most of the ones I saw as an auction seem to be going for less than the 80 bucks people would have spent. And I haven't seen movement on the ones priced over 100. People need to wait on an investment, this isn't the stock market. *wink* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tye_Informer Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 I guess it is possible that someone missed the GenCon online store timeframe to get Tara and has now read how awesome Tara is and/or saw the painted crews people have posted and now they must have Tara, however; I think that supply is exceeding demand currently. Wait 6 months or so and she should be worth $100+ (hopefully much more). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nilus Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 If anything I am just surprised at how not very smart people are. You could buy it two weeks ago for $80 so there is no reason to mark it up to $120 on ebay. If anything wait a few months for the set to become more rare and more sought after then put it on ebay(IE around the Holidays when people tend to spend more) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeleteAccount Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 Pretty much, I did the same for Dead Justice and Miss Demeneur and didn't touch them for a year, after that I could easily sell her for 80$ and hell, had I known about the dead death marshals being a thing now, I could have probably gone over 100.

Dracomax Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 And, honestly, if you wait 6-9 months, then it will be wanted not just by people who want the nightmare version, but by people who want to play Tara at all without proxying. Remember, it is not going to be available in non-nightmare form until next gencon at earliest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duck21 Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 Maybe they will bring some to Salute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forar Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 Why would I be bothered? Hell, unlike most exclusives, these were even available for sale during Gencon. A few going up onto the secondary market provide a method of people who are willing to gamble/speculate on getting more than they pay for them to put them out in the wild, and those who missed the sale (for whatever reason) a second chance to pick them up. Given that we've been told Tara probably won't be available until late 2014, making Gencon and any left on ebay the only way to get her until the regular box releases, one would think people would be happy some are taking that gamble. Hell, I'm doing a little speculating on another game system as we speak, and it may or may not pay off when everything gets delivered. Maybe I'll end up breaking even, maybe I'll turn a tidy profit, maybe I'll get stuck holding a sizable pile of plastic I don't really want or need. vOv Only time will tell.

Iron Heel Posted August 30, 2013 Report Share Posted August 30, 2013 One already closed on 8/22 for $102. In some cases it can be cheaper for folks in some parts of the world to take the eBay mark up but get cheaper shipping options in the mix. Nightmare Tara will probably be a good seller as it will be a long time before regular tara comes out. When is she slated for release?
