so they're messing around with the prices huh? 

thats why i HATE these guys and that why i REFUSE to order these through them.
 
i really want it but after reading this thread and toywiz's unethical business practices , i could care less if i have it or not, toywiz doesn't deserve any of my hard earned money as far as i'm concerned.   

honestly, i'd rather have them get stuck with ALL 1500 figures without a single sale, that will really teach them not to mess with the warriors fan base.  i know it seems silly of me, but why knowingly support a business thats been notoriously known for ripping people off?  why help them stay in business? 


heres the FYI on toywiz....
they're already committed to buy these from mezco, they can't back out of the deal. 
so how can this work for us? 
by NOT placing an order or CANCELing your orders, toywiz will get nervous, so nervous that they'll lower the price.  toywiz is single brick and mortar store operating out of Nanuet NY, not some huge company with a giant warehouse.....do you really think they want to get stuck 1500 of these?  1500 of anything?  hells no!  so what choice do they have but to lower the price but even then, don't preorder from them, just wait and let them sweat it out until the figure are actually released and i can guarantee we'll see a more reasonable on them.

I agree with some of you. I constantly check out the toywiz site and they are becoming a bunch of rip offs that only want hard money!! :evil: So i probably wont order anithing from them either. Last time i checked there was a 20 dollar purple faced furie, but without the case, and without its bat... just the pure toy. So i asked a couple of my friends on the site in aim if it was worth it, all of them said no, and i now agree. Its sad cus 20 bucks is the highest price ill be able to pay for a toy. Toywiz could have selles that figure for like 14 bucks, since it didnt come with package, and that other good stuff.

Really?wth,lol, when i checked the site about 5 or 6 weeks ago, it said it came with only the pure toy, neither the bat, nor the case. But as you keep in contact with  Mezco toon, i guess they got sense into them and now decided to put in the package and bat. So maybe ill buy it... Itll be my first warrior toy!!! :cry: :D

I think Toywiz hasn't recieved the purple baseball furies from mezcotoyz yet, because if they did toywiz would list the purple fury as "new" and its still "pre-order"

YIKES!  Those prices are CRAZY.  I used to run a comic book/toy shop here in Texas, and I do understand why smaller shops have to sell their toys (especially) more than the big chains, but DANG!  $750 for a toy that's not even 2 years old?!?

The deal on those guys, is it's completely supply and demand.  If we stop buying at thos prices, they'll have to stop charging them.  They're selling 'em as collectibles, so I can MAYBE understand that they're trying to move 'em on the secondary market at a higher premium...

Fact is, with toys, you snooze, you lose.  All (or most) of us could have picked up these figs when they first showed up, but we waited, and now we have to shell out considerably more...
