I'm hoping that the rules will go back to the way they were... 200 sales transactions or $20k, whichever comes first. If you're not doing that much, you're not operating a business. You're a garage sale... at best. I blew through the limits in 2014 and had to scour paypal records, emails...

It all comes down to the burden of proof. I don't know how anyone is supposed to know what they paid for a collectible 15-20 years ago. Made money, lost money, how would I know, how would the IRS know? But if I have to prove it to keep from getting hit with a big stab, I'm not sure how that...

Nice on the sale! I don't think I can ever divest myself of 4" Joe, even if it is no longer my preferred scale. I have probably 4k figures between vintage o-ring, new-sculpt o-ring, and 25th/ROC/POC/etc. And a whole storage unit full of vehicles. It pains me to think how much work that would...

While he's definitely not a favorite character of mine in Joe lore (I don't recall him being fleshed out in any meaningful way ever), the Big Boa classified figure is undoubtedly badass. I just got my "office" copy, and I am reminded how menacing he is. The helmet, the spikey harness... in...

I hear you. My boxes go to the office... and my mother can't resist making some kind of comment every time.

Yeah, same here... I'd leave stuff in the PoL so long that half of it would go on sale, and I'd end up canceling and reordering. Of course they put a stop to that, only allowing you to cancel for two weeks... and I can't blame them. And I'd still leave stuff in the pile forever just to save on...

No excuse for that shit.

Did you file electronically? It only took them about two weeks to get my refund back to me. You are right, the amount of Classified heads and accessories available on Mercari has fallen noticeably. I bought a couple of cheap Ultimates after the new fees only because they gave me a $10 coupon...

I had to look back in my old emails to remind me which figures I had ordered... but apparently I bought: "Lin" "Amy" "Virginie" "Mind Controller" and a blank female body I seem to recall some got sent, some got canceled, some got massively delayed.... I still have "Virginie" in my desk drawer...

Everyone's been quiet this week... feels like the "nose to the grindstone" part of the year. Spring is upon us, summer feels days away, no holidays in sight... just working for the weekend. When I started collecting Classified, I usually bought two of everything, one to open, one to keep in...

I've seen a ton of ARAH vehicles 3d printed at classified scale, and they are impressive. But damn, the prices of this stuff. $500... might as well be $50,000. I'm just as likely to bite. I just unboxed my Anycubic resin printer yesterday, still haven't printed anything yet. I'm definitely...

It's live at Target now... https://www.target.com/p/-/A-89970332

To be fair, the original figure was nothing more than an OG Firefly repaint, so that doesn't feel wrong or lazy to me. I like the figure, and I don't consider him a TF guy simply because he had that deco first in a non-TF context. I won't cry if he becomes unobtainium, but he's a unique enough...

Apparently it was 9am for premium members, and it sold out while I was checking out. But I think it's a Target excl product so they'll probably have plenty.

Sooooo, Tiger Paw w/ Wreckage anyone? I knew of Wreckage only from adult collecting when I learned of the Special Missions Brazil set from '88. But a lot of people are saying it looks more like Sabre Tooth... whom I had never heard of until about a month ago. Apparently he was part of an...

I finally got around to opening W4 of the Joe Ultimates, and I have to say, they're all impressive. - Baroness in her black deco... which is very grey in this toy, not much black to be found. But it looks very toony and comes with a ton of episode specific accessories (cobra perfume...

They still had a full wall of Legends and SWB dregs, followed by Dungeons and Dragons and Starting Line figs, virtually unchanged from six months ago. I counted probably ten cases of Shang Chi Legends figures on the top shelf that hadn't even been opened yet. They'll be there five years from...

I'm just about the characters in their classic looks, and they're devil-may-care heroes that don't have time for stupid body armor and shinguards like a girlieman soccer player :LOL: In more interesting news, had a doctors apt this morning, and I stopped in my handiest Ollies on the way back...

I said skinny pants... but what I meant was "not thicker"? It's hard to describe. The ARAH figure had noticeably thicker legs/pants than most figures, and the new retro figure looks to reflect that a bit... vs the CI figure that shares legs with several other characters. Maybe it's just the...

I hear you. I only ordered one Eel, just for the retro packaging, none to open. Snow Serpents, I ordered three, one for the packaging and two to open for officers since their blue is brighter and more distinct. I'll then have two squads of three, plus my custom ice viper. Beachhead, I...
