Having looked at the First4Figures website, they've been making quality statues for quite some time. However, I've noticed that they charge more for their figures on their own site than some other resellers do. Is it to do with their numbering scheme (either high or low is desirable)? Sites like Play-Asia are known to sell legitimate items, and not cheap fakes. What I want to know is how they get their prices so low? the Super Sonic statue is listed at $139 on First4Figures' website, while it's only $119 at Play-Asia. I know with their exclusive series, repeat buyers can get the same numbered figures as the previous purchase, but is it worth it if you end up paying that much more? If the limited sets were limited to the same number per set, I could understand it, but they aren't. So the question is, why would I buy directly from F4F instead of play-asia? |

I believe the charge more than resellers for a number of reasons One such is you no the average shopper will go direct if they want the figure to make sure it is 100 % authentic genuine and so charge a little bit more. |
