I personally hate paying over retail unless I have to. On top of that shipping. But It would cost me in stores 44-46 for the three figures and the box set. If he really can do $40 shipped both MOC and MIB in good condition. He will have an avid buyer from now on. As long as he gets them in as fast as the retail does. Which was another point about this thread. Not just the price.

I found a better place (when I say better I mean local, BBTS was awesome and never had any problems with them). If anyone is interested it is called Legends. They basicly get everything that BBTS gets and sometimes they are cheaper. For example:

Marvel Universe Wave 15

BBTS:
49.99$US + Basic Shipping 10.89$US = 60.88$US covert to CAD$ = 65$ that is not including the duty that I would have to pay at the door

Legends:
59.95$CAD + no shipping cause I can go pick it up = 59.95$CAD + Tax (this is a killer) = 68.29$

yes I do pay 3.30$ more to get them, but I could be paying more in duty.

But nothing it better then finding these things at retail... can't in my area tho..

Aw man, I wish you had more Batman stuff on there. That Madhatter figure you're selling is very tempting though.

Definitely need to get that wolverine, but that magneto is highly tempting.

Such perfect comic accuracy to Ultimate Origins. That's just a perfect usage of the AIM body!

Some of the other covers and issues he's been in explain the usage of the hands and the no gloves covering the hands.

Both are open enough to hold something similiar to one of the other ultimate origins covers where he's got both hands out making fists to lift himself in the air. Here's the variant cover in question.

I seriously hope at least that Astonishing Wolvie and Iceman pegwarm a little... would love to easily find at least a couple of MU that I really want for once. Usually, I have to resort to mark up prices at my LCS or specialty toy shops to get the figs I want.
