The imported model is offered as a collector resale item from a curated personal collection, sourced from international markets and selected based on collectible appeal.
The Indian-card model, when included in a combo, is provided at its printed MRP as a complementary piece for collectors.
We understand that every collector has different preferences, and not everyone is interested in fantasy castings. In fact, like many sellers, we also have a significant amount of fantasy-casting stock that remains unsold and eventually becomes dead stock. We would rather not add more unwanted models to a collector’s purchase simply to maintain an MRP-only price.
Some collectors prefer to select a specific licensed casting they actually want and are happy to pay a small premium for it rather than receiving a fantasy model they may not be interested in. To accommodate this preference, selected Indian-card models may be priced slightly above their printed MRP when purchased individually.
When included as part of a curated combo, however, the Indian-card model is provided at its printed MRP. The overall combo pricing primarily reflects the collectible value of the imported model, along with careful curation and secure packaging.
This approach gives collectors a choice: pick the model you actually want, instead of paying for or receiving a model you don’t.
We believe this is a more practical and collector-friendly approach for both sides, while allowing us to keep offering a wider variety of desirable castings.
