    His post wasn’t about me, it was more about other posters lol. I simply said it’s fair for people to not like how much harder to get a FT figure is than other 3p. How is that moving the goal post :lol

    I tried yesterday but the site stated I had to verify my account. But I never received a verification email with my gmail account. Anyone else have the same issue?

    Never had an issue with it but when I signed up they sent an email with a verification link to click on. Did you check spam just in case? If you dont have the email anywhere then you might have to start over and try again.

    Tesla V2 is sold out again, but I would sign up getting that taken care of so if more come up you dont have this to deal with at that time.

    Exactly. I said this when Smokey was coming out and people called me crazy because of the Thomas incident. Looking back, the Thomas incident seems like a one-off. I think prices increased AS Thomas was coming out, which resulted in the huge difference between PO price and market price. We haven't seen that since.

    Also, have to keep in mind that Thomas was the only toon aesthetic MP TF on the market, so I agree it was a one-off.

    But on a side note, FT is ridiculously priced and Thomas will be those crazy prices, imo, as seen on ebay if a reissue is done. People will probably be begging for the original release price (not the PO price).

    You're right. Ebay requires sellers to ship a purchase X (X=90?) days after purchase. Sellers often (always?) Send a fake shipping notice for long-term POs.

    Ok, thanks. Only time I've ever PO'd on ebay was through baba, and I didn't remember that occurring. I was worried for a moment cheertoys had gone rogue

    I don't order much through ebay anymore, but I think that's what's going on. You could try DMing your retailer just in case, though.
