Why are you like this >>12788948
Why is he squinting? >>12788946
Work in a first world country where your products are purchased by people who have all their base needs met and can afford to spend their disposable income on cute plastic. I wish I was good at literally anything. >>12788954
I see! >>12788949
Because racecar, duh >>12788946
I bet he cums on his figures. I know I would >>12788962
I really hate that you cannot buy anime figures without worrying that somebody might've cum on them. If properly cleaned, you cannot even tell they've been ejaculated on even if you use a blacklight. There are rumors of companies selling used figures as "new" meaning that avoiding used figures doesn't make a difference.

I'll never buy anime figures. >>12789012
>you cannot even tell they've been ejaculated on even if you use a blacklight.
then whats le problem?

Your fortune: Better not tell you now >>12789012
I really don't mind if they've been ejaculated on as long as they're in good condition, even B/B amiami preowned figures are immaculate compared to any used figures for sale in the US, where faded sun damage and plasticizer leakage and even smoke damage is common and they still want next to new prices for their destroyed paint chipped figures with missing parts. >>12789016
It's just gross man. Like using a dish rag someone wiped their ass with after taco bell. Even if it's been bleached and washed, you still don't wanna use that. Whenever I warn people about this they tend to say "who cares?" but I suspect they're the type to be apathetic towards bug and mold infestations as well. Just filthy. >>12789031
Thankfully my provider marks everything that has been returned and is selling as "used" and no fearmongering will change my mind about their validity >>12789031
I'm sure you don't care about all the squished up insect bits and rat guts that got into the mechanically cultivated cotton fibers used to make that dish rag. >>12789040
They get cleaned before, so no I do this >>12789040
I'd rather touch or ingest bugs than someone elses cum. >>12789046
cum is just a bodily fluid idk how it's any more gross than eating any other part of an animal like their meat for example >>12789039
Believe what you want, but I know how greed can effect any persons integrity. Relevant stonetoss. >>12789054
Oh no no no >>12789031
I work in sterile processing for a hospital and we clean and sterilize surgical instruments to be used again in another surgery.

I want you to consider this: The same forceps or needleholders or hemostats that are used in colorectal surgery may end up being finding its way into a tray for neurosurgery. It is very likely, in fact almost a statistical certainty, that a surgical instrument that's been inside of someone's rectum has also been put into another person's brain. >>12789071
here's a better one, all the water on earth has been going through the water cycle for billions of years and has come into contact with every bodily fluid and waste product from every species of single and multicellular life that has ever lived on earth. >>12789071
That's not really comparable. Those tools are put in the utmost sterile cleaning machines that are more effective than a pot of boiling water and would destroy any figure. Not to mention you aren't taking the tool home and displaying it on your shelf with reverence. There's just something deeply humiliating about displaying and caring for a figure someone else nutted on. >>12789080
How do we get out of this one, bros? >>12789051
I mean, you can see when the figurine box has been opened too >>12789086
all the hydrocarbons extracted from the earth used to make PVC and ABS plastic for your figgies are made from highly compressed dead animals and that also included all the semen in their testicles lole >>12789086
4 minutes of exposure time to 270 farenheit steam is actually all that 95% of surgical instruments get for their sterilization cycle. I bet an anime figure could survive that. >>12789096
you're gonna damage any PVC figure with that kind of heat, it may not melt into a puddle but it will deform okay but we all agree that the whole point of anime figures is to cum on them, right? >>12789080
This is again not comparable. 1. You'll die without water. 2. Water safety is like one the MOST IMPORTANT things in a society. It's not a good analogy when trying to make a "who cares?" argument. Governments spend multi millions to ensure clean and safe water.

Have you ever seen what tricks card scalpers use? These figures can cost 300+ and I doubt the gooners aren't going to use any reseal tricks. >>12789107
Japanese figures don't have a massive scalper and resale market like Pokemon cards.
Also it's much easier to flip pokemon cards and reseal packs with just worthless cards and scam both kids and adults trying to speculate, something you can't do with anime figures because they almost never inflate in value. >>12789100
No, I just like looking at them and occaisionally playing with them >>12789107
My sixth sense knows if something has been tampered with >>12789113
I'm not convinced a deranged guy bored of his $300+ figure isn't going to be greedy and reseal it. He might not even, but the company might be ths one resealing it.
>>12789119
cope >>12789132
There's no point in faking the new/used condition of a figure if it doesn't affect the price, you're selling something that is no longer made and has a steady stream of interested buyers.
