IMINIME Space Trucker for preorder in Italy?

[Hamanu]

This just got posted over on OSW.. Apparently, a web store from Rome is offering Iminime's Ripley for 420 Euros.

Interesting. . .

Sounds like it could be a bootlegger recast. I have never heard of Denny collaborating or been in contact with European distributors before.

Talked denny about this..hes aware of the site, its legit.

 

[karamazov80]

Yeah, it would be very hard to replicate all the stuff on that figure and hope to make a profit, even if it were a bootleg, so I assumed it was legit and Denny was simply working through different outlets to get exposure in non-English speaking regions.

Damn! I really liked the pony-tail version, but now i guess we wont be getting that?

561 in dollars...damn.....:-/

The preorder from iminime was in the $350 range. I wonder what it is now? These guys are obviously overcharging

True, but thats a BS price

Italian post and customs are bs, so if you want to be sure to get the figure with no issues, you gotta pay the price.

You guys are lucky the US Customs dont come down and charge duty on things like toys... if had any idea what we in the other places had to end up paying you'd probably be more sympathetic

Oh I'm sympathetic! I lived in Rome for a year and boy, that was rough when shipping and receiving!

The hilarious part is there is like no solid rate or ground on which the customs charge you! Its like a lottery... sometimes they can charge you almost 60% of the price and sometimes nothing! and the parcels disappearing is a whole other issue...
