Re: Ever bought a Pop! you already own?
Hate to admit I have done this multiple times. Especially because of pre-orders. I'll forget I pre-ordered something and buy it when I see in store. Then the shipping email comes and face palm

I just bought a pop on ebay that I already own!
I didn't remember until I went to add it to "My Collection" on the Funko app and the little crown was already blue
Tell me I am not alone, please!
You are not alone. I just did this with the Iron Man Die Cast. So now I have two and I don't know what to do with the second one. Oooops.

Re: Ever bought a Pop! you already own?
So many times I can't even count that high. Before we had heard of PopPriceGuide we kept our own list of pops (we still maintain it) on a website we built. We only built the site so that we could keep track of what we had. LOL.
I'm Greg. My son is "RSVHockeyDude". We collect Funko products together.
Pop! Count = 3133
Pop! Pez Count = 197
Funko Soda (My New Favorite): 762 different Sodas including Intl Versions
Other Funko Products (Hikari, Vynl, Wobblers, etc) = 87
Proto Count = 14 Pop (Mostly NHL; a little of Battlestar Galactica, Star Wars, Disney, The Simpsons); 4 Soda (NYCC Freddy)

Oh yeah, all the time. At that point, it comes out of the box for display.

Re: Ever bought a Pop! you already own?
I placed a bid on a Freddy Fresh when they started to hit ebay. Forgot about it and bought one off of Mercari. Got that one in the mail then got an email saying I won the one off of ebay...

Re: Ever bought a Pop! you already own?
I haven't bought myself a repeat, but there was an incident where I sent my sister to the mall on a shared convention day to try and get SDCC Bakugo. That attempt was unsuccessful, so my sister bought me the SDCC Goku from that year, even though I had already bought him the night before when online sales went live. I ended up selling the online Goku to a friend once he arrived and we call the Goku my sister bought me Consolation Goku

This is just a sign of having way too many pops in your collection. it leads to forgetfulness.

Re: Ever bought a Pop! you already own?
Not exactly but kinda. In the beginning of the collecting days there were pops that I did buy 2 of, when I bought the first ... one to keep in box and the other to purposely take out and display. That didn't last long.
I have been given pops I already had that the gifter didn't know i already had it. so I had bought myself the TFA Han Solo. and two different friends gave me the same pop at different times. So I just kept them.

I bought 3 Wynonna Earp commons & chases because Funko refuses to make more pops from the show. I then got a 4th Wynonna common in a gift exchange that I plan on displaying OOB. I uploaded everything into funko app to make sure I don't buy the same thing twice if I don't want to.

Re: Ever bought a Pop! you already own?
Ugh, not only did I just do this, but after having bought the pop TWICE, I still didn't realize I had it and was looking everywhere for one to buy! Was all disappointed that I couldn't find one in store in December, then was sorting through the mountain of pop boxes in my living room and found the very pop I'd been looking for! Then unboxing, and found the other pop. I'm too young for my memory to be failing me this badly!
