Unbelievably high starting price!!!


No bids yet . . . and no wonder!!!From "Crescent" the more user friendly / cheaper option than Rinkya. I can only think that this must have been a store display unless anyone out there knows something better?

http://page18.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/w38717812

Starting bid today is 660 UK pounds or 1050 US dollars!!!

Perhaps it's a typo ???

A tee bit overpriced, I wouldn't pay even one-fifth of that amount for it. I have to be honest, the only figure I am willing to pay that much would be the doll of the year.

I dont know if anyone else is watching this but they have now dropped the starting bid to 50,000Yen - like that makes any difference! This seller must think SFF's are totally bonkers not just crazy! emoticon

Could someone explain to me what the big deal is. I just assumed the church was a shop display or something. Are the figures really rare or something? I would love to know more!

Sue,

Actually, the Slydale Wedding Couple are actally kind of rare, it was one of the first wedding couples releases by Epoch in the 80's. I would put somewhere as rare as the UK Cream Cat Wedding set.

Yes, rare, but I wouldn't pay $500 USD for them anyway.

I wouldn't pay that much for any figure irregardless of how rare it is. However, apparently someone has more money than they do sense because it looks like a bid has been placed.
