Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

That's crazy. There are just certain things loans should not be used for. Collecting Statues is not one of them lol. Car loans, home loans, those make sense. Things you need to survive.

Payment plan is good enough for me. Keeps me grounded and I know exactly when I need to have money in my accounts.

OK lets take this common scenario,You want cable before it sells out but you can't swing the 3 months payment plan,So with the credit plan you can get it now and make the payments to 6 mos and 12 months and add $30 to $50 interest is to make it all more affordable and tempting.Yea its all clear what sideshow really is doing,its all about selling more statues that are sitting in stock but not everybody has great willpower as this is a very addicting hobby just ask Mr.X..Maybe some of us are a little too..

If they offer some 0% financing on all purchases, I'll take it. I don't like the current payment plans because I don't like paying for stuff before I get it. I still have issues paying deposits (which has caused me to miss out on a few things). Definitely not a good idea to finance and pay interest on statues though. You can go down a rabbit hole that'll be near impossible to get out of.

Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.

I usually charge all my collectible purchases to one credit card to get points then pay it off every month. If it's something huge that I don't want to pay off immediately, then I use Paypal Credit and pay it off within six months so I don't pay any interest.

This. I pay my card down and use the accumulated points/cash on something I want ASAP or can’t use a payment plan on. Those 1/3 statue points add up fast + Amazon, importing etc. I use my Ebay sales to pay down my payment balances and a friend and I sell cars which my half takes care of the Ebay value loss.

I usually always pay in full when I buy a statue (if the option is available)... That way I don't have to think about it anymore

For currently available statues, have the payment plans always been a maximum of 3 payments?
