“Django” Action Figures Sell for Thousands on Web Despite eBay Ban

Share

I broke the story on Tuesday that you could buy the banned “Django Unchained” action figures on eBay for thousands of dollars. This morning eBay pulled all of the “Django” dolls auctions. But you can still find the action figures all over the internet thanks to Google. Bonanza.com is offering a 5 piece set for $1000. ToyWhiz.com sells the individual pieces for $209.00 apiece.

Here’s the original story from January 22: http://www.showbiz411.com/2013/01/22/updated-django-dolls-pulled-from-stores-sell-for-thousands-on-black-market

Meantime amazon.com is offering three pages of possibilities to buy all the dolls. One outfit is selling a collection for $6,999. Crazy, huh? And really offensive. http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B009I6S6Y4/ref=dp_olp_0/179-7415620-5419422?ie=UTF8&condition=all
