Yeah I didn't expect it to stay at a low price. I already got a 60cm so I would only get another one if I could get it for an "affordable" price which for me isn't that high right now. If it gets anywhere near new price I would just get a new doll with a blank head to paint lol...or better yet a Normal Skintone one.

Misheru, you might look into used/guaranteed. That's what two of ours were, incl the one I just replaced last year which lasted us 15 years.


Thanks. I am not sure of any dealers (reputable) around here that would do that. At least we got a better dealer today than the one the other day who was a slimy salesman. It is still horrible, but a lesser scale of horrible. :roll:

Aw, Misheru. I wonder how well OBitsu vinyl handles the heat.

I hope at least the humans are not melting into plastic puddles.

Any time an Obitsu goes over $100 I'm out, I'll just pay full price and get a new one at that rate.
A hobby isn't supposed to leave you wistful, regretful and vaguely disappointed. BJD collecting is as customizable as the dolls themselves. Do whatever pleases you the most, because otherwise, why do it at all? All for the 'Gram Bitches love the 'Gram.

I agree. Over $100 for a secondhand and I'd rather just get a new one....

I have paid (way) more than $100 for my second hand girls to be honest. I can't imagine a second hand Obitsu going for less unless it's broken and/or very badly stained...

Although there was that male one for 60 pounds that I let slip a few weeks ago... ack.

The thing for me is that if it has reached this much this fast, imagine how high it will go in the last few hours. If it had inched to above $100 in the last day and then jumped then I don't think it would of been such a problem. But such a jump with so much time still on the auction does not leave me with much hope.

unless you get a buy it now, it's rare to get a used bitsu for less than 180. This comes from watching al ot of ebay bids lol.

See, I can either wait and save more than I have now and get a new body. Or hope for the bid war to be kept to a decent level. I will be easily outbid with what I currently have saved for a body.
