This guy must work for Walnart! A lot of 12 Quickdraws for sale from Frito Lay contest 12 for sale $575.00 not in store yet!
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lot-of...=item3a92a3a698


He probably was going to hold on to them to try and get a higher price down the road, but is trying now to dump them really quick before it becomes common knowledge they will be released at retail (hence the buy 12 of them at once auction). They were not terribly difficult to win if you were persistent, and some used multiple addresses to pick up more than the 4 per household. I'd bet he did this and is now scurrying to dump them ASAP.

But yeah, he might have lifted a box of them at his store (haven't heard of them being shipped to stores yet, as they would probably have shown up on shelves by mistake by now if they had). It's much easier for him to have just won them than walk out of a storage area/store with a case under his arm.

This guy probably sat in front of a computer for several days in a row trying to win the Frito Lay contest for various addresses. I understand some people won more than 4 by having them mailed to a friend or relative, but it seems this loser took it to the extreme...there's always a few who succeed in gaming the system in contests like these. According to his EBay history, QuickDraw is all he's sold this year. He realizes his little payday is coming to an end very soon when these will be available for $15, so he hopes to unload them on some unknowing shmuck.

Yeah, he has sold a bunch of them, which means he got them from the contest. You can thank people like him if you had trouble winning one last December. The contest "reset" every 15 minutes, according to the Rules - so he obviously spent lots of time filling out the form. The last gasp "lot of twelve" is probably all he has left - he is used to getting $50 a pop, hence his price but knows that window is closing fast. He appears to have been listing them one at a time to avoid driving down the price with a glut of them.

But they won't have those fancy E3 stickers on them... smilie



It doesnt even have an E3 sticker on it lol.

Although it isn't a sticker, it does have a label that says, "2014 Event special edition"

Lol. "Dropout"? I wonder what the seller means by that? Because they don't want him anymore, or maybe since he has an orange base? Strange.

I don't think this isn't a fail because it's a bad deal, but because this costs less then some of the more common Skylanders (e.g. Boomer), therefore he could be losing a lot of money: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/E3-C...=item3f38eeeb4b Then again, this is probably fake.

Is Magna Charge REALLY that rare? I actually haven't seen him in a while. Good thing I got him at Launch.
Matteomax Platinum Sparx Gems: 5378
#1171 Posted: 15:52:17 17/07/2014
Nope, that's just a placeholder price. People do that so, if they run out of stock (and their listing is still up), they will purposely rise it to a price that no one will buy.

Well, Magna Charge is semi-uncommon now, same goes with Rattle Shake (due to their popularity).

These sellers must know nothing about this game. If someone doesnt win a free figure from frito lay r they really going to pay $80 or just wait for his actual release? Id say 99% of people with a brain will wait and get him for 9.99 later on. Now to see idiots like this are grinding the contest taking others chances of winning

^Actually it's more likely that the average parent/child will see this chip bag contest and assume it's the only way to get him. You only really know about it coming out later if you read the fine print. Which is sad, but the reason these guys are going to make a huge buck off parents this year.
