Do I have permission to press the button on Golden Catwoman? Is $80 too much? Tell me what to do!

This is a really hard question! A month ago, you could have scored her for about half that price :( As I'm starting to hunt the Golden Goddesses down, I'm seeing the prices go up. Waiting may bring her price down as more enter the market, or it could go the other way and continue to increase. I paid $80 with shipping for Wonder Woman today, but she has a much higher run of 750 compared to Catwoman of 250.

So, for TL:DR: If you paid $80 now, but saw her price drop in a couple months, would you be upset? However, if you don't purchase her now and see that her price is now $100 in a couple months, would you be upset? Then compare your rates of remorse to see if you should buy her now.

I went for it. My levels of remorse would be far higher if she got more expensive.

Limited to 250, I don't really see her ever dropping below $70.
But I don't know all the much about these Cryptos.

She was selling for about $40-50 plus shipping a while ago. Only Catwoman for some reason. Her prices have come up since then.

I had some ebay bucks so I'm okay with what I paid for. I really love her and I'm not planning on completing the set so the damage to my wallet will be minimal. I'll probably get the regular Catwoman Bombshell just to have all of her. She's not too pricey.

Don't forget Cheetah Print Catwoman due into Hot Topic before the end of the year.

My husband just purchased the Golden Goddess set. $265 shipped thanks to a coupon that popped up today on ebay. I don't know if it would work for you guys, but it is PROMONYCC (20% off up to $50) and ends today. There was a note about on any eligible items I looked at right underneath how many ebay bucks would be earned on the purchase.

Now, to wait until Christmas to actually see them.

I tested it and it worked! Now, I need to figure out what to buy. :LOL:

Likely being stolen straight from a distribution center imo.
