it is not call as expensive, it is out of budget or not affordable
expensive usually reserved for for 'irresponsible' scalper seller
and it is recommended to have wish list(not say you have to buy it,it is just a mere wish list) so you can know which one you want to target first
FYI, over budget do related with expensive. Expensive means involving high cost or is beyond a prospective buyers means.expensive usually reserved for for 'irresponsible' scalper seller
and it is recommended to have wish list(not say you have to buy it,it is just a mere wish list) so you can know which one you want to target first
For example a person with RM 20k income want to buy a Lamborghini Aventador, but his monthly salary couldn't afford it. So he will say that Lamborghini is expensive whereas another person with monthly income RM 80k buy the same car, after he/she pay the installment(maybe around RM 30k) he/she still have plenty of money left. Both of them are rich but the car is beyond the first person affordable range, whereas the 2nd person can afford so it is not considered expensive for him/her.
Same case here, if my budget is RM 300 for each figure but the I attracted by a figure which cost a lot more than that. And I couldn't afford it, indirectly it is expensive for me.
'Irresponsible' scalper seller as you mentioned is another case, it only applied when you do comparison. When a person selling an item at higher price compared to market price or any other sellers, of course you will say he selling at expensive price. But if all sellers jack up the price together, obviously the market price for that item also increase. Then you wouldn't feel expensive, because the price don't have much difference even you make comparison. As long as it is in your budget or affordable range, you wouldn't say it is expensive.
Anyway this is how I think, you can accept or ignore. But the definition of expensive is correct.

As much as I love gilgamesh (in fact i was bragging about why no one release a figure of him just a week before he's announced), but when i see the price, then see his body proportion, and face...i probably skip, or see the real thing to decide (saw 10x saber around the market, so not so worry about out of stock) :/
Ya, I also saw many Chogokin Saber still available in the market. And the price already dropped, if I'm right I saw it below RM 180.
