I was always wondering about this. They want you to pay more but why the fuck are they charging double to triple the retail price? weebs are retarded paypigs but they can't be THAT retarded, right?

There are often a couple actually hard-to-get figures, artbooks, etc. but for the most part, it's hilariously upcharged because the average congoer (not a real weeb) is that stupid.

They're hoping for impulse buys from people who don't know better and you can usually haggle them down a bit if you care enough. The only thing I've found to be worth buying at cons is bigger plushies like nesoberis because after the shipping the price is around the same anyway.

The best way to shop at cons is have store prices like this on your phone >>717921665 and wait until midday sunday or closer to closing time, and then try and get them to price match. Most of the time they'll say no, but sometimes they'll agree because it means one less figure to have to pack up and take back with them.
