February 2016 Polybag Availability Update

Original Post:

Sorry if there's a post like this already. I searched but polybag comes up in so many threads its hard to see! I was thinking of getting polybags to sell. I'm not really looking for huge profit, mostly it seemed like a good idea for building up my eBay feedback. So I don't need to be super profitable but of course I don't want to lose money with shipping, etc. How do you know what bags will do well (obviously like anything theres no sure thing but any idea what does decent vs what js pretty much always a flop). They are hard to search for since they are random. How long do they usually last? Is there any general tips you could give?

I'll probably get down votes for this one.

 

This must be up there as one of the worst polys ever

Have the terms of purchase been announced yet for the DJ polybags at TRU?

I haven't seen any but they are already popping up in some of the trade boards I am on.

So I noticed some ebay "sellers" have several Goliath figs for sale.  Of course they do not come in a polybag.  How is this possible?

Yeah there are a lot of reports on Reddit of people seeing these, being allowed to buy one, and then the managers pulling the rest off the shelves for an upcoming promo

Hamley's, the famous toy store on Regent Street in London, now has its own exclusive minifigure, a royal guard. It's similar to the one in collectable minifigures series 5, 8805 Royal Guard, but with a happier expression and a couple of medals on its chest. It's thought it'll retail for £6.

If I can some of these imported to US is there interest on here? I know in the past people have tried for group distribution on non-US stuff

Yes

I would be interested.  Always looking to add to my poly/minifigure collection. 

And that would be a yes from me as well. ?

Yes from me

Yes, I would def be interested.  

Absolutely

I would be too, yes. 

I would love a couple of these as well if possible. Thanks. 

In for 1...

Same here

I managed to convince a Toys R Us to sell me 3 of the DJ polybags... I didn't want to take advantage or set off any alarm bells getting more than 3 (already sold 2 on eBay to make up the cost of the 3rd).

Couple to guard bridge for me

Obviously several members are interested.  The big question does anyone have access to them. 

The aftermarket prices should continue to dive. These were just made available on Hamley's website for sale to UK and Europe (not sure if all Europe). I'll buy one once they get below US$20 shipped.
