Which would you choose?

Post by sonjordan » Mon Jul 21, 2008 8:27 pm

So my friend has apparently has a bit too much money on his hands and is trying to decide between three purchases on ebay. Which would YOU buy?

http://cgi.ebay.com/DBZ-All-7-Crystal-D ... dZViewItem

OR

http://cgi.ebay.com/DBZ-All-7-Crystal-b ... dZViewItem

And Lastly

http://cgi.ebay.com/Dragonball-Z-GT-Sta ... dZViewItem

I say he get the first one, basically beacuse the other 2 are clear. And sorry if we are not allowed to post eBay postings. I read the rules and didn't see anything forbidding it since I am not the one selling.

Since money is not an object, I would pick number 3.
The series doesn't start with the arrival of Raditz. Stop being lazy and watch Dragonball.

I can't belive they are just selling DragonBalls on Ebay. Bad guys could just buy them and Bam! End of the world.

I personally like http://cgi.ebay.com/DBZ-All-7-Crystal-D ... dZViewItem but there so expensive.

Kendamu's got a point. The scouter's a much better deal because then you can use it to locate the power level of someone who bought the Dragon Ball set, kill him and/or destroy his town/city/planet, and take them for yourself absolutely FREE!

Unless he's stronger then you, then you just get sent to HFIL...although I guess that could be considered a free carnival trip.Anyway I like the first set the best myself.

I would definitely say get the first set of Dragonballs, since they're the only ones that are actually orange. :roll: It wouldn't be too hard to make similar orange light stands like you get in the other sets, small LED lights like those are like 40 cents a piece.

And since we seem to also be suggesting other expensive Dragonball items on Ebay I thought I'd make a few suggestions too:

Medicom SSj Goku figure (or any of Medicoms other two DBZ figures).

16" Shenlong figure.

38cm Oozaru figure.

And I just had to also link to what seems to be some of the best made Dragonball figures out there, as advertised on the official Toei Animation Dragonball Z page: http://www.toei-anim.co.jp/tv/dragon/figure.html

If I had money to spend, THESE items look much more appealing than paying $100 shipping on Dragon Balls.

I like the first one.


But if you have that much money to spend, I wouldn't advise buying Dragonballs. As cool as they are. :wink:

If he's got $ to burn and wants a scouter, what about this?

[quote="Brakus"]For all the flack that FUNimation gets on this forum for their quote about DBZ, there's some modicum of truth to it: a 9-year-old is born every day. Or in some cases, "reborn". DBZ may be a kids' show, but it's been so close to so many hearts all over Japan, America, and quite possibly, even the world.[/quote]
