Wow, that's dirt cheap. So all online retailers are overpricing it or what?

Ebay has it for $104. I doubt you will find it for less than that.
EDIT: Looks like the sale is over, it's back at $114, which is still ridiculously low imo.

Getting Daimos for prices in the neighborhood of $100 is a STEAL. This is a lot of toy for the money. Hell, if it had cost $200 it still would be worth it to me. It's that good.

Toy Wave sells Daimos for $140. With EMS shipping, it'll be around $180 to US or Canada.

Temujen, does Betatoys send you notification mail upon shipment? I still heard nothing from them.

Beta seems to be slipping, I cannot get Andy to answer any e-mails that I send.

dooquie, after a few mails I finally got a reply. It's around these few days.
temujen, how you get it from Beta so soon?
Orbitron, is that black hip joint scratch avoidable?? I like that Jazz you got there!
Ugh, still no Daimos..... so very sad. But still I wouldn't attempt to get those ultra cheap ones over at the bay. Really I can't trust the hk sellers there..

I think you can avoid it but its kind a hard because the gap between the moving part is too tight. And everytime you transform him, you have to spread his legs a little wider and that's how the chip starts. Legend Jazz is pretty small ;D

Not sure, bojidx, I think I just pre-ordered it very early on. I checked out the box tonight. One corner is slightly crushed. I have a feeling Andy might have received it that way and not noticed it when he shipped it to me. The shipping box I got from Betatoys was in perfect condition so it's not likely that it got damaged between there and my house. There could be no damage to the inside, but I e-mailed Andy to see how he wants me to proceed. I do not necessarily need a mint box, but I want my Daimos to be in the best condition possible. zman, I'm pretty excited about Dangard Ace too. I'm not sure when Andy is supposed to get them though.

I want my Daimos to be in the best condition possible. But your Daimos IS in the best condition possible. Only the useless box isn't.

Scratches on your DAIMOS or any of your toys?--- think of them as a badge of honor-- and it gives them personality :-)
