Carter Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Hey uh, not to sound weird or anything. But how much WAS the Ike amiibo from the scalper? I recently got a Rosalina amiibo from one, and I'm trying to figure out whether it was worth the buy or not. But I'm a greedy little pig, so even if I find another regular-priced Rosalina, I'd end up reselling it, rather than giving away for free. I'd wish I had the heart to do it, like you, but I just can't. I LOVE MONEY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You shouldn't pay more than $35 for a Rosa/Ike at this point in time. Anyone who wants more is not being very realistic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOWEVER, that was plus shipping fee. The price I settled (on bid) was $35.00 on the dot. Of course, as bids always go, it did not start that high. I believe the original bidding price was around... $20? That's quite low! Especially Rosalina, I thought he would want more money for a Target Exclusive, but that was quite nice! If I am to resell it, it would be a buy now, but lower. If you were to resell your Ike amiibo (instead of giving away) how much would you list for? Retail Price?

Sunwoo Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I don't know about Elie personally, but I wouldn't resell an amiibo for more than what its price is supposed to be: 13 dollars. But then again, I wouldn't go out of my way to pick up any non-Robin amiibo at this point (already got Shulk) and would only get any extra ones that were already at the store. Not participating in this draw, but this is a nice thing you're doing Elie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you were to resell your Ike amiibo (instead of giving away) how much would you list for? Retail Price? I'd probably list a re-selling Ike for $20, Because Sale+Shipping is how I'm coming across the only other Ike that i've been able to lay my hands on. In TX, it'd go for $14.02 at GameStop, and $15.11 at Toys R Us (because of Sales Tax), and if I were selling it online, I'd be paying postage. If I was selling it to a friend, I'd zip off for $15.

I just wish my own Ike Amiibo hadn't gotten delayed for like the third time. :( I'd enter your thing here, Sara, but I still have that Ike preorder at GameStop, of course. Still. this is an awesome thing you're doing. ^^ *chants* We like Ike! Yayz! WE LIKE IKE! WE LIKE IKE!

Elieson Posted March 2, 2015 Author Share Posted March 2, 2015 (edited) Rey if you can get me a marth of any source, I'll reimburse you for it, since you have methods that I probably lack Here's hoping then, Ana!
