Just curious, is there a reason you have this $2 Minifigure priced at $100 with
cracked arms and a cracked torso? Or was it just a listing error on you part?
Also, I personally don’t sell any Minifigures with cracks on them. Since this
is mainly a collector and enthusiast site, I consider damaged Minifigures to
be unworthy of this marketplace. I suspect you will find many people here who
agree with that sentiment.

| The price was just to make sure that no one bought it when they could get it
free. Also it doesn't matter to me if some people don't buy cracked stuff
so long as there are some that do and I know there are.

| I have everything the way I want it and I have good reasons for doing it this
way. The $100 figure was mostly meant as a joke but I guess a website where adults
buy and sell toys is meant to be totally serious if you do not mean to buy
anything please do not try to make me change things to how you would do it. I
do not mean to offend but I have it how I want it.

I didn't say you were trying and I certainly do NOT mean to offend anyone
but I have reasons for what I am doing.

If you don't want to sell the "free" minifig, just move it into your
stockroom.
That way, you can still keep track of it and nobody can buy it.
Someone might buy that minifig for the price on it, thinking they want it at
any price, even if it's cracked stuff. If that happens, it can skew the price
guide, not a good way to do it in my own opinion.
BrickLink has features you can use that are better.
By the way, is there any reason you're not shipping to Australia? I'm
just curious, I could possibly have an interest in certain stock in your store,
but can't buy it, because you don't ship to my country at present.
I sincerely hope your sales go well for you, the NEXO Knights might be hard stock
to move.
Cheers ...

But if he sells it at $100.00 he will no doubt be VERY happy (I know I would
be) and skewing the price guide will be the least of his worries

Same and technically the price guide is still 100% accurate as someone was
willing to pay that price for it
