I think that last one makes it an even $300 in reward points that has been given out generally since January.

Not quite.
For a Prime 1 piece that is due to ship to me (maybe not now) I saw a quote from Sideshow for $520 USD!!!!
My last 1/3 Prime 1 Justice League pieces cost between $190 to $240 USD. This is more than double!
I wanted the Exclusive quite a bit, which is why I was willing to get it via Sideshow rather than locally where I would only get the Regular. But the difference between what it would cost me total to import and getting the Regular locally is ‘now’ somewhere in the vicinity of $800 USD Plus!

Crazy expensive!
Just don't see how this can be sustainable for the average collector. Maybe there are just no average collectors, I don't know.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Legit every code I've tried in the past few months has been expired by the time I see it. Are these all like 2-minute codes? Absolutely stupid.

It’s not the time really. It’s the redemption limit of 1,000 to 2,000 for each code.

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

Speaking as an average collector, who wallet is regularly in pain, you can only pick and choose your battles.
Collecting sometimes feels like an impossible challenge, but it does have it's rewards. When I look at the statues I have, I think, wow am I lucky. I get to have this wonderful piece of art in my house. I'm sure that is the reason,, why a lot of people are still at it, despite the rising prices.
