on shelfs before it was released

About a month ago I found a entire set of the Spiderman Cartoon figures in an Alco. This was about a week before they were seposed to come out in stores! I didn't buy them because I don't collect them but for futre reference can i get money for figures if I sell them before they are out?

In some cases yes! For example, the Halo figures; when a exclusive Halo figure coomes out, usely there will be people on ebay who have them early. One time I saw a orange Hyabusya (sp?) go for $400!! :idea: And almost a month later, the figures were popping up in walmart and are now (in some places) peg-warmers. So you get an extra $ out of peoples impatient ways!

people pay bug money to have stuff before the general public even though in a month everyone will have the same thing and no one will care who had theirs first as long as they ended up with it eventually
