darkphoenix181 12/30/19 3:01:58 AM #1:	Seriously, like a big boob Nami figure is $150 or something. Imagine a shelf full of these. That is like having a shelf of HD TVs that aren't hooked up (value wise). "Here is my 32 inch. Here I have a 43. This one is a smart tv. This one is Qled." Buying waifu figures is literally one of the most expensive hobbies it looks like. <cite>darkphoenix181 posted [p:932227906] in How do wee...

Perhaps except you can use the guns to hunt, kill intruders or deter the king of England from entering your house. Or give the gun as a present to a young man for reaching an age.

winged_weltall 12/30/19 3:46:41 AM #14:	My best friend's brother collects these anime figures. It's pretty much his only hobby besides playing the games and watching the anime themselves. He has probably 20k worth in figures and my friend tells me he still has tons of money just saved up from his regular job because he has nothing else he spends money on. <cite>winged_weltall posted [p:932228681] in How do wee...

The swimsuit Saber Atraxia ones retailed for $70 in the US and were easily had on Amazon on clearance for $40 back in 2015. Are you looking at the prices they are now? Collectors usually get stuff at retail or even cheaper if straight from Japan. They obviously appreciate, especially for a character like Saber.
