Just thought I'd let anyone who's interested know the going rates for the Dr. teeth from Wizard East on Ebay. I've been tracking every figure available for the last week (yes, I've been bored) I figured I'd pass along the knowledge to anyone who's still looking for a figure or for those who already have him, what he's worth at this point...
On Day 1, initial excitement and limited availability drove prices high. By the time the first auctions closed, the final bid price was around 60 dollars.
The Buy it now options ranged from a high of 80.00 to a low of 34.99... In the initial couple days, one figure sold for 75.00 buy it now, another for 65.00, a couple for 45.00, and one for 34.99. So far, the 34.99 buy it now is the lowest dr. teeth has been available. As if this writing, prices have begun to cool and the buy it now auctions at 60+ are failing to attract bidders. A dr. teeth with a starting bid of 49.99 and buy it now of 65.00 failed to sell and has been re-offered at 45.00 starting bid, 49.00 buy it now.
By the end of Week 1, aproximately 20-25 dr. teeth have been offered on Ebay. Initial excitement has waned somewhat and now the auctions are closing between 40-50 dollars.
At the peak, there were 15-17 dr. teeth auctions happening simultaneously. Currently, there are 9 auctions. If the number of figures available continues to drop, we may see an increase of prices. I have noticed that one bidder in particular has won at least 4 of the figures which means that some other collectors may become desperate and start bidding higher.
The lesson in all of this may be to exercise patience when bidding on these exclusives. If you jump in at the first offerings, you'll end up paying about 25%-33% more than you should. Waiting until there are a good number available should keep the prices down.
