A Fixture
Well done Luis! I look forward to reading Andrea's answer, and I guess we all are curious to finally hear why their prices are so high outside of Spain.

As long as this is a healthy and civil debate, I see no harm. If it gets into any manufacture/vendor trashing and bashing it will be dealt with.

Very true. In fact someone from Michigan bought that Roman Warship...you know...the one that cost $2,500.00Originally posted by Anders Heintz@Feb 4 2004, 11:35 AM
as long as people are willing to pay it and they sell their prodcuts I am afraid it is not going to change much.
Is there anybody on this forum that would pay $36.95 for a 54mm? C'mon, be honest...We're all friends here. There's alotta love in this communityÂ
Happy B-day Johan!
I sell Michael roberts 54mm for 28 euro's. I have now find a new importer which will allow me to drop the price to about 23 euro. i also think it has a lot to do with how much profit the shop wants to get. Pegaso sell there 54mm figures at 25.50 euro. I buy them at an Italian distibutor, and even with postage costs etc... I manage to sell them for 21.10. Why? Because I love my hobby and I'm not using it to get rich fast. I'm a modeller myself, so I know how important it is to be able to buy a figure at a reasonable price. I recently have bought a Durendal figure at 33 euro's. There was some cast groundwork included which made it worth the money for me.What does a figure manufactured in the U.S. in Spain cost? I think a comparison would be illuminating
