Amazon is such a wonderful company all right, and they give you free shipping all for the tidy sum of 100 dollars because they love you and not because they want to gain your complete dependency through every dirty tactic available. Ringside might be scalping off them, but Amazon is trying their level best to undermine the economy and run everything into the ground. Welcome to the United Disney Amazon of McDonalds. You're acting like business is supposed to be fair lol. If you had Amazon's power you'd do the exact same thing. Nah, I'm not super huge on capitalism, but I like my frivolities so I accept it for what it is. What I did was answer the question "why would someone not like ordering from Amazon?" Because I like leaving my house and going to specialty stores that have unique items to peruse in person. EDIT: Also, as a side tidbit, I've ordered exactly 5 things in my life from Amazon. I'm 28. I'm proof one can exist largely without it.

And why would you assume everyone has amazon prime? not everyone orders enough stuff on Amazon to make the worth the cost of prime. It cost me $5 for my order. If I place 3 orders a year on Amazon that is alot. Before this Mankind order the last order we placed on Amazon was for a gift for our daughter for Christmas. And before that it was maybe an order in Sept for her birthday. But I'm not even sure we got her anything off Amazon last year for her birthday. I didn't know you had to have Amazon prime to get free shipping. I always get free shipping on orders over $35 dollars. Does that mean I have Prime? If so, I have no idea how since I never subscribed to it. Haha Can you or anybody else enlighten me on this "Amazon prime"? No, the free shipping over $35 is normal and for everyone, which is what makes RSC s practices even worse

FWIW, you can still only order five of these at a time, so unless someone at RSC has Prime, they did pay shipping on each batch.

If you order 5 at a time you don't need Prime because the total for those five figures is over $35 dollars. The only headache would be the multiple orders you'd be making to reach let's say..100 figures.

Lucky I got one early before they pulled the plug. Even luckier I got one in great shape. I work in a warehouse so I know how easy stuff can get damaged just sitting there.

Its their business they can do what they want. I only wanted to point out the flawed logic of a comment made. I also think the scalper comparison is fair in some regards but then again if you were selling something you point at retail from another company you would also over price it. Logic as well.

I think it's hilarious that people are trying to scalp an Amazon exclusive. You can buy it for $15. Anyone who buys it for more is an idiot or dislikes Amazon.
