BREAKING: STARBUCKS JUST DROPPED A MIFFY COLLECTION—AND YOUR WALLET IS IN DANGER

Hold onto your wallets, collectors. Starbucks has officially launched a new collaboration with the iconic Dutch rabbit, Miffy, and the internet is already in a frenzy. But before you sprint to the nearest drive-thru, here’s the catch: These items are only available in select Asian markets—for now. Resellers are already listing the minimalist, pastel-colored cups and plush keychains for 3x to 5x the retail price on eBay and Depop.

Translation: If you want that $12 Miffy cold cup, be prepared to pay $60+ after shipping and markup. Starbucks hasn’t announced a U.S. drop yet, but history shows that when Japan or Korea gets a limited-edition collab, North America either gets a watered-down version months later—or nothing at all.

How this hits your wallet:

• Resellers are winning. Expect to see these items flooded on second-hand markets for a premium.
• The FOMO tax is real. If you missed the Squishmallows or the Stanley cup craze, you know how fast these sell out and how high the markups go.
• No official word on a global release. So unless you have a friend flying back from Seoul or Tokyo, your best bet is to set a price alert and wait—or risk paying triple for a cute bunny cup.

Our advice: Set a hard budget now. The hype is real, but so is the price gouging. Your wallet doesn’t need to cry over a ceramic mug.
