You also get to see toys you'd never see in person and decide right then and there that they're worth your money.
So even if their prices are the same price as amazon, bbts or amiami, you're getting a better deal anyway.
And yes, while things can usually be seen online later, a lot of things never show up or are only partly shown.
Most photographs of objects also don't show all the details you can actually see for yourself in person. It's like how people think prototypes are pristine and perfect or how people hate Mezco's cloth on their figures.
Seeing shit for yourself makes a huuuuuge difference.
