Wait! Maybe it is the trunk. Did you let the dealer wash it at any point?

@Ultramaroon 006 crashed and burned prior to departure form Japan at 4:30 this afternoon! Quite shocking since it was said to have departed a week ago.

Greetings from Amazon.ca,

We're sorry, but the following order from JAPAN HERO has been canceled because the items you purchased were out of stock. Please return and attempt to purchase again at a later time.

We apologize for any inconvenience.

Good news. There is an option although I can probably buy a real one for that much.

I don't know but every time I try to order one I get told it is suddenly "out of stock" and all the others that are supposedly "in stock" jump in price. Weird that all of the allegedly different venders also have exactly the same shipping rates and description of the business. I have tried another but am not optimistic that it too will not suddenly be "out of stock".

Shady bastards. I've seen similar with amazon. I check prices on something a couple times but don't buy. Then a few days later, same thing, the price jumps.

Leave it on your wishlist long enough and prices usually drop. It tells you the percentage change since you added it so you find a good deal. I check mine weekly.

I would need to leave this on my list for about 150 years for it to come down to a reasonable price!
