Re: Why do online stores sell figures for very expensive?
Sometimes stores will overcharge for a certain figure because it's the one they know that collectors want badly. The rest of the case would be much harder to sell and a greater chance that the store will get stuck with it (a pegwarmer) with no choice but to eventually clearance it out for below cost. So they build in a higher profit margin on the desirable figure(s) to account for this possibility.
Then again, some stores just scalp... with some really ridiculous prices.
