I mean let's get to the meat of the matter regarding the Gargamel LB's: Everyone pretty much wants a Zag. That's why nothing surprises me here anymore. You could see this coming 100 miles away. Zags are always popular, it came as no surprise Gargamel pretty much went the same format as last year.

It is funny to watch certain "collectors" here jump from trend to trend each week though. I mean zags are a pretty much universally loved, but overall each week the wants fill up with the latest and greatest, only to be in sales threads as soon as the next big thing comes along.

nothing new really. Many of the collectors who were active when this board started have sold off most of their collections. It just seems more prevalent now that more people are collecting.

Selling off a whole collection and getting out of the scene for whatever reason (needing money, being kozik) is different than the whole weekly flipping of last weeks flavor for less than retail.

I guess it must just suck to want everything and not be able to afford it or control purchasing impulses.

It does. I have been there, most people go through the "I like it all" stage. It does seem like it is taking more time for people to shake that urge than it used to.
