Hey there 001FAB, I've been out all day and just saw your message. Looks like I missed out on alot here. So it sounds like Funky Jedi got all the info for you already and invited him to the RPF if I read that right?... Thats cool! I hope you were able to get on his list to get a glass as well.

The auction prices are ridiculous. Like others have said, I don't see how folks can list them up as a BIN option for $400 when others are $270 BIN. :facepalm
But then again, one guy did get Pepsi to give him an empty box that's part of his auction:

Even more pathetic is that there is now a guy selling just the EMPTY BOX for a starting bid of $100.

I'm convinced that he was working for Pepsi since he also had the T-Shirt they gave to their team in the auction, and I find it hard to believe that someone would give him the shirt off his back.I asked him about the box and he said that he asked nicely for it.
I dont know if anyone has brought this up or not about the pepsi amazon thing on the 21st and how fast they will sell out etc. But this has happened to me on more than one occasion when going after a exclusive toy. Amazon allows you to get it and pay for it and then a week later I get an email saying "oops our bad, we oversold the item so you wont be getting one." Even though I jumped on it right away when they went online within a minute of the post. So I dont know if everyone goes online at the same time to get the pepsi bottle if that will be the outcome for many people as well?

Do you remember when that exclusive toy posted on Amazon? I was thinking the Pepsi Perfect would post literally on October 21st, as in midnight (possibly even Eastern Time). Was that your experience?
That one isn't tapered at the top. Try It seems that's the one he used for his video since he used a different glass for his RPF thread. It's not screen accurate, but a glass replica looks very nice. Unfortunately, it seems the glass he used for his video is not being sold in JCPenney anymore.
Reverse image search shows all the other glasses posted itt are Libbey glasses.
[strike]By the way, searching for wheat glasses will result in more accurate glasses.[/strike] on second thought, no. no it won't. lol
Maybe there is still hope?
UK website claims there is still a chance for getting one.View attachment 539866

My experience was with a SDCC Funko Exclusive and it was a random time like 8pm my time when they put on twitter its up for sale. Like I said I was on it within seconds and I am assuming due to the volume and everyone buying all at once it sold out but that I am guessing that Amazon just lets it keep selling and then emails people later to inform them that it was oversold and to bad.
I wish I knew when it was going to go on sale so I can make sure I am not stuck working at the time. I'd like to have a chance to get one. I am surprised they are selling on Amazon and not the official pepsi page.
Thanks for information. Looks like there may be hope regarding avoiding the whole Amazon situation. Just a few days ago, their website said, "Available on Amazon 10/21", but now it says "Available Online 10/21".
See my post #132 with a screen shot I did a week ago, and here is the what it looks like now on their website:

Maybe they have some leftovers from NYCC that they are planning to sell on their site.Thanks for information. Looks like there may be hope regarding avoiding the whole Amazon situation. Just a few days ago, their website said, "Available on Amazon 10/21", but now it says "Available Online 10/21".
