My price was far lower than that, and about two days before the payday that would've had me buying it, some girl came in and paid $212 or whatever it was after tax, and got the whole set.
Modest markups work, insane markups rarely pay off."
$199.... for 7 (was it seven? My GF has the full set) 500 yen figures...
that's about $32 for the set.

"I don't think anyone will buy it for $200."
"is okay, I like having nice stahf in display that not selling well. It look nice, no?"
Then when I finally sold it, I called him and told him someone bought it.
"Shii, someone stoopid"
