Pacific mall has many things that are cheap (however pirated, can beyblades be pirated?)
And I don't think pacific mall will bother checking if there's a difference between the fake and the real ones.
I expect around 5-10$, I think they have their own ways of getting beys cheap.
But that is if Corny's information is accurate (nothing on you Corny )
Actually, when p-mall used to have authentic Takara HMS beyblades they cost anywhere from $15-$30, I know this for a fact, as I bought Samurai changer there for $25. I only found two shops there that ever had official bey. One of those stores actually sold both real and fake bey, so you had to know what to look for. I haven't yet heard of anyone finding MFB there yet. I think there are bootleg MFB in Toronto though, someone had one @ AnimeNorth last weekend.
Not everything at P-mall is cheap, a lot of the authentic products found there are WAY over-priced due to importing costs and the desire to turn a profit.
Other than the obvious reason of getting newer/rare bey, I don't really see the benefit of Takara bey right now when Hasbro has just released their first wave here.
All that said, I'd be up for meeting @ p-mall and traveling to a park if it happens.
I was going to move my proposed canada day event to that weekend though, probably the saturday. Should I cancel that? If everyone is more interested in doing P-mall over dufferin grove, thats fine. I just want to have a meet-up to get to know people.
