What pops do you regret trading?

Postby GarrettCipp » Wed Sep 14, 2022 7:31 pm

Have you guys ever traded a pop and on the drive home regretted it? Or maybe a couple years later just randomly think about it? What pop was it?!?!

I was at E3 2018 and ended up with an extra Super Shadow Pop. I traded him for some random piece of E3 swag that one of my friends got and I don't care about anymore.

Super Shadow is now worth around $1K if Ebay prices are to be believed. At least I still have one (which I am never selling haha)

Back in the day I traded a wizard of Oz set for a Shazam (og one) money wise and value wise it was the same because the Oz set was still common place in australia and I still have my Shazam but still looking at the value of what I traded I often think back

This is going to be a dumb question, but where do people trade? Is it something that is done at events?

Freddy Funko Dr. Strange is definitely one I wish I had held onto. Same with the second edition version of the Monster Cereals.

Not dumb at all! I know there are trading events that some stores host but I’ve never been to any. I’ve only ever done it on the subreddit funkoswap. I’ve been collecting for awhile but just recently started getting in on the social side of things so I don’t personally know any people that collect.

I'm not gonna get into specifics (because it still hurts to think about lol) but I'm sure I'm not the only one who did some trades pre-COVID and the values of those skyrocketed in the past 2+ years.

That is interesting, I didn't realize that subreddit exists. Will you trade with people you have to ship to? That would scare me.

There are lots that I have traded or given to friends and family to see the value skyrocket. But don’t regret giving them away. They were ones that I didn’t really collect the line for and the people that got them were very excited.

I started watching Breaking Bad because I was just starting out selling Funko products and I didn't know the license...never had the full set but I did have several cases of the Crystal Ship,,,I regret not keeping one for myself :(

Yeah check it out! You can see how many trades people have made to make you feel more comfortable. The mods actively update the ban list too so people tend to be on their best behavior. Also you can also trade for PayPal so it’s not always pop for pop.

I traded my Frankenstein Freddy from Fundays after the event for a Freddy Big Boy. In hindsight I should have just bought the Big Boy Freddy…cest la vie.
