Yeah, I didn’t think you did, I thought you were just asking. I wasn’t offended or anything, just explaining. I said it before, and I’ll say it again, it’s not about the money. I’m happy it went that high, but me posting it was pretty much out of curiousity. It is very tempting to order a few of the company’s spares and put them on ebay, after seeing it go so high, but I want to make sure everyone on the board gets a shot before they go to evilBay. Also, I don’t think any true collector would resell theirs, haha, would be mighty difficult getting another one
@Mr. Potatohead
I don’t have any on hand (at least not any that aren’t paid for, a couple people haven’t contacted me about shipping). However, like I said, the company has between 6-8 extras right now. They will be $73 shipped to the USA. Shipping internationally will be tad trickier though and I’ll cross that bridge when and if that situation arises.
But yes, I’m not going to order them all for ebay, I’ll give members of the board a little bit of time after Christmas to purchase at a normal price and not eBay, with Christmas money. Although, I must admit, if they aren’t all gone by the time I start the Roly Clown, I wouldn’t mind putting a set or two more on eBay.
I don’t know enough right now to speculate honestly. I know the prototype will be cheaper, and I assume less custom paint means less price, but honestly, can’t speculate at this point
Well, mine arrived today (would have been Saturday, but I missed the delivery) Can only encourage anyone thinking of grabbing one of the spare sets to do so.
They look incredible, none of the pictures I’ve seen do them justice. Here’s a pic of my set (that doesn’t do them justice…haha) Thanks Slink…so glad I got on-board for this project of yours. Fantastic idea.
I’d still rather supply them to you guys directly then go to evilBay…prolly the only one I will put up, unless there are still some available after the Roly Clown
If you are in the USA, the company will ship them to you directly. That price is $75 and you’ll receive your troikas approximately 4-6 days from the time I receive payment.
If you are international, I will need to have the troikas shipped to my house, then ship them to you, so the time could take about 3 weeks. The price for them is $85
Please PM me with any interest. I will soon be moving past the troikas and onto the roly poly clown project
The troikas project is officially at its close. Pending a few payments, all of the Troikas are completely sold out, both my supply, and the surplus that the company had the foresight to order.
I hope all of you who received Troikas are happy with your investment, and I hope that everyone who now wants the Roly Poly Clown can get one. I hope this helped those of you with trust issues know that not everyone online is out to rip you off.
Also, to all of you who missed out on the Troikas, I’m sorry. I did my best to accommodate everyone who wanted a set. Basically, the only thing I can do for you now, is put you on a waiting list, and if that list ever reaches 10 or more, I can re do the entire process. However, unless it gets higher than 15, the prices will go up even more. I did my absolute best to get them as cheaply as I could for everyone, which took a lot of work. I seriously doubt any more will ever be produced.
Thanks to everyone on a successful project and to the moderators for not shutting me down (although I never heard a final verdict, lol)
Hopefully, the Roly Clown project will be as successful as the Troikas, and I will let you all know if my secret project ever gets off the ground. If it does, look out, a lot of collection’s hole will be filled!
Sorry to add to the list but anytime anymore become available I would be very interested. Sorry that I had to pull out - I’m kicking myself now!!! Haha!!!
