It's up to you. Starscream is pimp.

I just can't advocate anyone spending any more $$$ right now. I think we all went on a binge over the past few days. We need to take a deep breath and relax.

But then again...that Starscream is a super deal, and you'll end up punting yourself in the nads if you pass it up.

I think his debit card expired on him, so no go for another 10 days.

If you round up a bunch of stuff you're interested in, I can work on a better price.

That sucks. He should just go straight to bank and withdraw some cash.

Yes. By spending more, you save more.

Check e-bay for the going price. Also check their availability or scarcity.

http://search.ebay.com/search/search...prclo=&saprchi=

Pruchase Price + Listing Fee + End of Auction Fee + PayPal transaction fee + actual shipping costs...

Then factor in if some chump has one out there for some ridiculously low price that keeps people from looking at yours...

If you can make a decent buck after all that, then go for 2, sell one. That way the cost of the one you keep goes down.

Hahaha...should I wait for Jae and get a better deal?


I think I could go with everything in red and blue. Maybe not Megatron...does Jae have the Megatrons on hold and just has to pay, or is there the risk that someone else could buy them?

Ask Jae and let me know.

The more you spend, the more I can ask off for. Trust me, I can break the quoted price. He HAD 3 Megatrons, now it's down to 2. One of them went somewhere since last Friday.

By going though this guy, it gives Jae an extra Megatron to pawn on eBay.

Good point. What the hell...I'll get everything in red and blue. I'll still buy Jae's if he doesn't want to go on ebay with it. Doubles would be sweet anyway.

Is this from the place that had a sold out Soundwave for like $53? I found two sites that seem to be exactly the same and ordered a $49 TFC Starscream from one of them yesterday. Waiting to see if it actually goes through. I also see that the other one has TFC Starscream on ebay right now.
