If you saw a heat wave, would you wave back?

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

BBTS's prices have increased dramatically each time a new preorder goes up. I wonder what the threshold is going to be. They are borderline gouging now lol. But if there are buyers, then all it's all good I guess.

Yea, and they are only doing it with XM. Meanwhile SSC stuff is no longer coming up for a discount. Everything else seems to still be at a discounted price though.

I've talked to one of the US Retailers and they said that their source for the XM Statues has tacked on about $300 on the newer statues. Your going to see all the US Retailers prices go up I'm afraid.
It might also be why Secret Compass isn't carry any of the new XM Statues....

Secret Compass doesn't post their new XM orders on their site since they get such a small number of pieces per character and they have sufficient interest from existing customers there is no need to post them on their site. I will say though that if the $300 increase is true, I will be out after Cable. I might even skip Cable and call it a day with the XM pieces that I have on preorder up to this point. I really can't justify any more price increases with this line.

I have only Black Widow and Hawkeye on PO with BBTS. If that $300 jump in price is true, then those will be the only two XM statues I'll buy from BBTS.
The rest of the XM statues I want will be through Singapore retailers.

If you look at the last 3 statues from BBTS.com (Phoenix, Thanos and now Iron Man VII) you can see the huge price jump....

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Captain America was originally around the price they currently have Black Widow. After they received their initial shipment and were sold out they received more weeks later, and the price jumped to 999.99. Then recently they must have gotten another small shipment because now the listing jumped again to 1199.99. See the pattern here? Whomever they are supplied by is jacking up the prices and BBTS is passing it along to the consumers; at least I hope that is the case! I'm thinking the 1000.00 plus price point is here to stay for them.
