Thread: Anime store at Rage

  1. #1

    Default Anime store at Rage

    Today I was at the anime store but they were mostly selling figurines. While I was there one of the "staff" was running around and quickly sticking on "new" prices over the old ones. The figurines were about high R200's to R300. The new prices were about R400.

    I asked the guy why they were suddenly inflating the prices... He just said because they are rare in SA. :/ Really....? Just thought I would mention the douchebaggery IMO.

    Wow, that sounds pretty weak. How on Earth can cheap plastic toys from china be rare anywhere?

    All the figures in that store are bootlegs as well. Pirated shit.

    Worst part is that the event organizers know this, but they just don't care.

    Well I gave them a fair amount of lip but you could see they don't give a shit.

    That is why even "rage deals" are not so great.

    Nope, they are definitely fake. Real 1:6 scale resin hand paited models start at $100 for the more common ones.
