Ever bought a Pop! you already own?
I knew it would happen eventually !
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!

Whenever I do something like this, I think "I must really like that Pop! to buy it twice."

It happens to me a lot. Most of the time, I just place it into the donation box...

Re: Ever bought a Pop! you already own?
I’ve been gifted pops I own plenty of times. I usually smile and just say thank you. I’m sure I’ve also bought something I already owned but I don’t think it’s happened recently.

Re: Ever bought a Pop! you already own?
Pretty much, I always forget what I have and end up buying the same pop over again. Oh well just hold on to it until I can trade it or give it as a gift

Accidentally? Not that I remember, but I have on purpose a few times. I have gotten a few for box upgrades or an extra to be signed.

*raises hand*
Guilty.
My husband was complete on the Dragonball line for the first 5 years or so. I used to be pretty good about knowing what I had bought and what I hadn't, but when there were suddenly chases, and variants, and different Kame-hame-has, etc I started losing track and brought a few extras home. Oh well!

Re: Ever bought a Pop! you already own?
Multiple times sadly.
Only once was it on purpose. I had an OOB Spike from Cowboy Bebop and was lucky enough to get another for $12 before he eventually shot up in price.

That's happened to me a couple times. Mostly with pre-orders and/or restocks/ It's easy to lose track of. Once we started cataloging pickups in the ppg account pretty much right away, Ihaven't made that mistake since.

Re: Ever bought a Pop! you already own?
It’s happened a few times between me and my husband. Now I’m just mindful enough to let him know when I buy pops. And he’s been really good about keeping a log.

I've had this happen with Soda presales, where I forget I had one on order with another site. Almost had it happen recently with a Star Wars Pop! that I forgot I already had, too.

Re: Ever bought a Pop! you already own?
I have done more times that I care to admit - just did it at SDCC as a matter of fact. I saw the Anakin I needed and then saw a Sabine and was pretty sure it was the same I had but since I bought the Rebels POPs so long again - I worried it was 1 I missed so bought her...turns out again. But that's OK. Now maybe I'll start a boxed set of Rebels LoL (look what I did to myself!)

Re: Ever bought a Pop! you already own?
Umm yea totally guilty… hasn’t happened in a while but I also have reeled in my POP purchases. Sometimes I did do it intentionally, however. I used to ship US exclusives to international Funatics quite often (a few times a week). So if I found some extra I knew someone probably wanted I would pick them up. Few times they didn’t end up needing so they got returned or donated.

Re: Ever bought a Pop! you already own?
Thank you everyone for your stories!! I feel like it’s a badge of honor - when your collection gets so large it’s hard to remember everything you have.
And yes I also agree that if you bought a pop a second time it means that you must really like that one!!
I am enjoying the solidarity of my fellow funatics!!!
Keep sharing your stories, please…

Before the app I bought this blue suit Batman from the Arkham series, I couldn’t remember if I had the black or the blue so I just snagged another. Could have been HT exclusive and figured might as well.
