I only buy new figures.
If you try to sell those figures in a year or so, would the price drop a lot?
It depends on the figure but i would think you would at least make your money back.
Good to know, thanks
And if you buy a brand new figure and you put it on display, say after 1-2 years you want sell it, how much do you usually get back?

After a high end collectible is long sold out, I only buy opened one to be sure it is damage free.
Thought this gon be dildo thread.
I never buy MISB figures after release. I like to know a pre-owned figure's been checked for defects.
Price appreciation/depreciation depends on the figure.
so you've been paying alot more for used item than you would if you buy it new.
Some people don't want to risk damage/missing parts on a NIB piece vs. a mint opened one.
Breaking even means selling for higher though, you have to figure in fees, shipping, etc...Almost no chance of getting parts for secondary market items, much rather have pics and see it is mint before I buy or get from a trusted seller. People who obsess over hidden defects are never going to be happy.The thing is you can most of the time get your money back by selling them off if you don't like the item, if there's damage or missing parts, i'm sure most of the time you can get a replacement, either from the seller, or the manufacturer themselves, there maybe some additional shipping involved but still i would say you won't lose as much money compared to paying a premium in the used market, the guy did mention long after MISB sold out, so the premium would be higher even for used. also no guarantee the used item has no defects. Different people have different standards when it comes to defects, for example a paint smudge at areas hidden by outfits, some folks couldn't sleep over it.
