The mini statue sale was too good to pass up, so I purchased 3 Smaug statues. I'll keep one and sell the other two.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

i am sure you can easily sell it for breakeven as thorin is a popular character. It comes out to be ~$210 shipped, add on ebay/paypal/shipping to buyer fees it becomes ~$300 breakeven. It retails for $450 and is soldout.

the question is why you getting all 3 of the same statue lol, they got a nice selection why not choose 3 different ones you like.

I regret not getting azog which is soldout now, had him in my cart but they wanted $75 for shipping so i hesitated. Oh well you snooze you lose. Still got bunch stuff i wanted but didn't get because of the msrp. So i am happy

You are right - I don't know why I got 3, I don't like the torturer but probably would have got one if i didnt wait long, then on the others i wasn't too into them. Thought might as well get the items that had max value.

I was like why get 300 one vs one that is 450.

not sure if that was right decision.

if i can even sell one thorin for $300 after cost. i'll be happy

but in hindsight i should have chosen some other statues as part of the 3 - i know contacting Weta CS - may not get a response in time before it ships and not sure if they can swap one for another piece.

Rivendell price was insane, still can't believe I paid over retail for mine just to get it shipped from EU after weta said they were going to stop making them. Grond dropping is also suprising considering it was low stock prior to the sale (unless it was fake low stock like Sideshow pulls).
