The U.B. Funkeys Community is objectively small, although it has reached over 3.6k on Reddit and over 2K people in the community Discord, the community is very tight knitted. With this fact, Dot limited scarcity in the market and overall availability causes alot of strain on in the community due to many non-community member collectors attempting to price Dots on resell sites, like ebay, for outrageous markups for no other reason than profit and to objectively hurt the community. As a reminder, Dots at one point in time were retailed for $9.99 at the exclusively at SDCC, and did not receive many takers at the time, so the staff of the booth started handing them out for free. With this knowledge, We need to put these outrageous prices into perspective. Currently Dots have been priced anywhere from $16 USD all the way to $700+ USD, most of them selling for around 300 USD. | The U.B.

So with this known, What should "reasonable" pricing for a Dot be? For the best and fairest Dot pricing, listings should be anywhere between $200 to $475 USD max with the average closing price at $300ish USD.

For the best and fairest Dot pricing, listings should be anywhere between $200 to $475 USD max with the average closing price at $300ish USD. This range does have abit of flexibility for certain numbers I.E: 0001, 0069, 0420, 1080, etc. which people would find more desirable but pricing for them shouldn't, in the broader communities opinion, get past $500 USD unless it's its a bidding listing. In bid listing pricing will range so quickly depending on so many factors but a good base price for a bidding listing should start at around $150 and have a max increase of $10 for minimum bid increase to allow for all members for the community to beable to attempt to get a Dot. | ||
At the end of the day, you are in control of how you spend your money and how people make listings. If you don't want to see more high price listings, do not buy the higher priced funkeys. obviously there are risks with every transaction and every sale but do not let yourself all victim to these outrageous prices and know your items worth. These are memories not collectables, don't let yourself or other community members get abused by these resellers. | At the end of the day, you are in control of how you spend your money and how people make listings.
