Price of Rare Figures on the Web

[ceratopsian]

I got that  Battat Gallimimus. I just really wanted one. As I believe that and Utahraptor are not going to the Terra line. I now have both.

Congratulations on the Gallimimus!  I was unsuccessful. But I picked up the WS Hypacrosaurus, which I had been hunting for ages.

Thank you. Congratulations on the Hypacrosaurus. I recently pick up one too. I wouldn't mind if they had Doug redo it.

which one is rarer? the reddish or the bluish Bullyland Batrachotomus?

Both of them are not-so-easy-to-find (..I don't like so much the word "rare" used for mass-produced figures  ).
The blue version was the first one produced (as far as I know) so it's probably the less common to find..

[sauroid]

haha good thing i have two of the reddish one.

[Halichoeres]

$130 for a Battat Triceratops. I have one and I'd gladly accept that sum for it. Good lord.

A step too far for me!  That was just too much and commonsense prevailed, though I put in a strong bid.

[Daspletotyrannus]

I thought what I paid for mine was too much. Now I'm just happy I got mine at the price I got it for.

[PhilSauria]

Looking at that price, unless this one is ever re-issued I don't think I'll ever own one!

[SidB]

Never say never - I got four Battat originals about a year and a half ago for under thirty dollars in a lot sale on Ebay: the Triceratops, the Ouranosaurus, the Maiasaura and a Styracosaurus. Unbelievable!  Keep looking, there's always hope.

I love the optimism!

I am sure another will come along!  It's not like I haven't made some excellent acquisitions recently.

[BrontoScorpio]

I'm sure it will - rather soon - and in a better price too.
Good decision of yours to let it go this time -
I really think you better off without it than paying almost 130$.

Well, even if you do not believe it, I was the one who won the Battat triceratops bid. I needed it even though I know that it will come very late due to the Christmas holidays or even get lost, in fact I have not unfortunately still received the tyrannosaurus rex Battat version 3 that I bought from patriot and may be lost.

I honestly offered in the bid an exorbitant money, that is to say a wild price in such a way that could assure me this figure, for me it was very important after having the triceratops Safari and the triceratops PNSO, this figure was the jewel in the crown that I had left in terms of triceratops models. I am very sorry for the members of the forum that you have not achieved this figure but for me it was vital. I risked a lot of money even with the problem that I could and I can even raise the strict customs laws of Spain, from the monetary point of view but what I said I wanted and as I said I have thrown the house out the window.

[ceratopsian]

Shonisaurus, congratulations on the Trike. I am glad it has gone to an excellent home where it will be appreciated, and to a friend of mine.   I am only sorry that you had to pay so much for it!  Do not give up hope over the T. Rex parcel. It may still turn up. The postal system gets busy at Christmas and New Year. And again, congratulations!

Thank you esteemed ceraptosian and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2018. I hope that those who seek that beauty will also reach the time to find it for a quarter of the price at least that mine.   

Honestly now I risk a lot in my bets. I lost unfortunately the pachycephalosaurus Battat and the most painful the uintatherium and andrewsarchus of Play Visions apart from my screw-up with the supposed "sale" (scam actually) of the very cheap palorchestes of Play Visions in a pirate shop.

Ive sent items to spain before and its sometimes taken over a month for items to arrive there sent from the usa. Have faith that your dinosaurs will make it! Sometimes they get wrapped up in customs and they hold it for a while.

that's why i postpone all shipping/trades during the xmas season (from mid November til mid January of the following year).

Well, I do believe it, as I wrote before, and I see you did it again with the Battat Ouranosaurus :

Good thing I got my Battat Original Acrocanthosaurus ( which was always considered to be the most pricy, after the Battat Diplodocus ) before you got in to business -
since I wouldn't have stand the chance against you ...

Just a word of a friendly advice :
I don't know how old are you, but, You realy need to think what makes you NEED it right now so much, that you :
1. willing to pay this kind of money.
2. Act in a way that clearly inflates the amount you will going to end up paying
(I'm talking about making an outrageous Initial bid ).

If you are just a  bored Milioner -  I take it back all I said - do what ever you feel like to ...
