What's going on? People bought it just to immediately resell it? Sheesh. If they bought it as an investment, they should at least hold onto it for awhile, no? link
The manufacturer, NECA, had a discount price if you pre-ordered. Perhaps they had an even lower discount price for big orders from "sellers." Anyway, I love my Freddie doll. It looks like shipping averages about $12, understandably. NECA packaging is excellent. It took me about 1/2 an hour to release Freddie and his microphone from all of the many twist ties. I met a friend for lunch, and being that she had not seen Freddie yet, I brought him with me to Applebee's. He had a good time, good time.
