POPMART has been gaining high sales recently with their exciting blind boxes. Ranging from what people call “Crybaby” and “Labubu” have caught the attention of the public. Lines have wrapped around stores, and people have waited hours to get in.
Not only is this happening in public, but many have also tried to purchase them online and failed due to the website crashing and the supply running out of stock within the first 10 minutes.
Prices of these surprise toys vary from $28 for a single box to almost $200 for a whole case.
With this trend on the rise, we already see knock-offs at flea markets and small stores selling them for a lower price. People have called these knock-offs “Lafufus” because they are fake. Then we also run into resellers who choose to sell the item at twice the price for a profit.
Sometimes people decide to trade for the one they specifically want or pay the exact cost. The fascinating idea of purchasing and opening these figures is the chance and thrill of obtaining a secret that has a 1 in 72 chance of being found.
Recently, some fans have spoken out on social media about how this new set is slowly deteriorating in quality. Will you check out and purchase this fuzzy monster?
