Who is this "he" you are talking about, and how do you keep finding these ultra rare items, haha?
eBay Topic
Not to knowledgeable with HMS, but I think this might be a good deal http://www.ebay.com/itm/Takara-HMS-Beybl...338143020d. Correct me if I'm wrong.

And realistically speaking, what is a Dragoon GT Advanced Starter Set worth New in Box? These seem to appear more often than they should with only 1,000 ever made...is that production quantity really accurate?
I've tried to price my used plastics in a way that a) is fair to the buyer, b) still makes me a bit of profit, and c) makes our favorite rare bey seller look a little bit silly. I tell you, I'm finding a LOT of things in Japan that he is not...Twin Battle Bey Double Shooter Set (NIB) x 2! Dragoon GT set NIB (quantity unknown). He would buy them if he found them at the price I paid - there's no doubt
A Black Dragoon GT starter got bought on Y!JA for around $100 and was resold for around $350. Another was sold for $300. It's been a while since one has been spotted on the market though, so by my estimation the price would rise a lot on Y!JA but would be lower on eBay. The Japanese resellers are beyond crazy for NIB rare plastics/HMS atm but interest on eBay is waning.
Thanks very much - I'll just hang on to it then.
To Ginga - that's a trade secret! Actually, it helps being able to search the web in Japanese and not just "beyblade shop".
Lots of stores sell Beyblades even though they may specialize in something else. More than anything though, it's spending the time to look through pages of inventory AND the ability to buy things from Japan regardless of shipping / payment terms. The twin battle sets and the dragoon GT starter set were both purchased COD and shipped only to domestic Japan addresses. Having lived there, I have friends (and in-laws) willing to do me the favor of receiving and forwarding items to me...
And the seller I was referring to is noted above for putting a ridiculous price on Draciel G. If I were to switch places (if I were him), I'd be pretty upset that someone like me is coming in and getting new, rare stuff right out from under his nose...and often times at original retail price (or less)!!
Like I've said many times, if there is something to be found then I can usually find it one way or another. I've collected the entire HMS numbered set (other than 'custom try') in three months. All are new in box except magical ape, bloody devil (both mint in box), and customize grip (used). Actually, I do not have an original MA-03, but there's one in the twin battle set so I'm counting it for both... It was not easy and it was expensive at times, but I'm rather proud of having done it buying only a handful them at inflated auction prices.
And yes, the Dragoon Gt advanced starter set was a retail purchase of ¥4,500. I paid $300 for two NIB HMS double shooter sets so the start price of $175 for one of them sees only a $25 profit (obviously hoping it sells for more, but we shall see). Yes the buy it now is ridicous, but the auction start price is fair (custom trybstarted at AUD $225 if i remember right) and I kinda want it to last long enough to draw some attention to the other things I'm selling.

Anyone grabbing this? Comes with a Customize Grip.. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TOPBLADE-TOP-B...43baece969
And what's with the Dranzer MS overpricing... Not too long ago they were going for $25 BIN, now they're up to $40+ ..

I'm no expert but I think that's a little pricey
Not bad, maybe I'll get it just so I can I say I have an HMS bey or two, but first, TO THE BEYWIKI PRICE SHEET!
Edit: On second thought, I'll pass, 65$ isn't worth it. I'd rather just invest in MFB and mabye a few plastics later down the line for now

Actually, that's not a true customize grip - it doesn't accept any of the accessories (grip rubber, spring trigger); it's basically an extended handle. It's much better than using a launcher alone, but still not the same as having a real Takara customize grip (just wanted to clarify that).
Also, I've got a Sonokong Dranzer NIB listed for under $30, along with a mess of other less-common HMS Beyblades.

Hm I had a different set for just 25 dollars it came with GDMS then Dranzer MS. Hah I like the grip it actually fits my bulky hands

That is actually a pretty good price, but I can't see the shipping charge.
$8.05 Ecomany shipping sir. Ebay UI changed the shipping/fees are the right side.
Oh, all of those items are being sold by sporkseller. His items for sale are really good, I bought something from him before.
So about $60 for all that, hmm, I think you can get all of those separately, which would total about $60 as well. It's not bad tho.

I think I found a good quality and cheap seller http://stores.ebay.com/PVC-MALL?_trksid=p2047675.l2563
Dimsum has similar or better prices than that guy ^ ..
1234beyblade was selling ONE bb10 for 60 bucks, and insomniac is selling one for 55 bucks.
Posted Gigars, Draciel V2, Dark Leopard MS, Spike Lizard, Manta Diver, Uriel, and tons of other rare plastics and HMS. Check 'em out on my eBay listings! And I recently achieved 'Top Rated Seller' status - thanks to everyone here who has trusted me with your purchases. I am pretty sure my prices are lower than anyone else for every listing I have in common with other eBay sellers.
I can get things for good prices - but I'm afraid if I don't start selling some things I'll have to shut it down (and it's back to over-inflated prices from Japan or China).

Oh my. My favorite bey of all time.
I'm torn between wanting to buy this, or get more immediately useful stuff, like Tornado Attack and Wide Defense.
Maybe it's me but something looks very wrong with the tip. Doesn't look like either of the two sides to it.
