With shipping, it's currently around $30.00.

No thanks, I'll wait.

you know £12.99 is the UK RRP right? and the shipping cost is roughly what it would cost to ship to the US.

Oh, absolutely. I'm not saying it's not worth it to someone, it's just not worth it to me.
Besides, it's reserve hasn't been met, yet. The seller obviously wants to fetch quite a price for it, one that's not what I'd be wiling to pay.

If it were a First Edition figure, perhaps I'd pay that much, but this is the Prime RID line we're talking about, and I have a rather sour taste in my mouth right now from it.

If the seller can get it sold, which seems obvious, more power to 'em. I'm not knocking the seller or their effort to make their money back on the purchase, it's just not worth import pricing to me. You mentioned US buyers, I'm in the US, so I piped up.

My problem is with the toys themselves, not the people selling or buying them. Well, the toys and Hasbro.
