If I only want one or two figures out of a wave, $20 each with tax and shipping is acceptable to me. And LL and Gamora are the only two I want from this wave; Gamora is still more than I will pay. On the other hand if I wait for these figures who knows how long I will actually be waiting....six months? one year? two years...who knows.

On the other hand if I want the whole wave I know I can just order it online and it ends up being a little less. Also if there's a figure I might end up wanting at some point but not a huge want for me, I don't mind waiting until they decrease in price closer to $13 or so.

That's my balancing plan for cost vs. want vs. compulsive addictiveness to what I want...I guess it works for me.

I was by no means criticizing your decision to pay that amount captain Nash. It's actually cheaper than what you would pay on eBay or Amazon even at this point. I don't like the case packs that suck ass and make it hard to get these figures at a decent price. It seems like you have to order these by the case just to get them for the MSRP of $13 or whatever, or you have to wait over a year just to spot them at retail. The lack of torso articulation really limits these figures and they should not be charging that much for them.
