We decided to do a little "about us" and who we are. We wanted to be a little more "real"
We are a team of 5 ( all in the IT industry )
We have all been collectors (not specifically Popmart) since 2018, all stemming from Funko Pops . As you can see from our Funko collection , we are gamers π . We have roughly 300+ funkos ( we will show you this collection if you ask nicely and no we are never selling them )
We are not Scalpers , we of all people know how scalpers messed with Funkos .
Why did we start The Unbox?
When we say , we wanted Pop Mart figures that weren't being brought into SA and eventually found the one and only place that did . We weren't willing to trade our kidneys for them .
We collectively started getting them overseas for ourselves and now for the community and matching the prices of the local supplier of Pop Mart - just without the fancy title.
We dont buy 10 whole boxes of Labubus and hike up the prices - that's what Scalpers do . We have minimal and limited quantities.
This is a passion project of ours . We all love hunting on the web and physically see what our supplier sees .
We don't know the first thing about starting a business or social marketing . We are a bunch of nerds π€ just doing what we love , which is collecting , hunting and now hopefully providing .
Support us or dont , the Pops have a happy home with us .
Ps we still have every single Funko since 2018
