Post What I find funny
All the trade and want posts end up in either wanting "older RxH" or "Bemon" and almost none of them get what they want.

Has all the older RxH and Bemons gone into the vaults to stay ?

:)

And is it safe to say there is no need to ask for the obviously impossible to obtain ?

It seems a whole lot of everything is in the vaults these days. Notice how quickly items in sale threads vanish and how slowly want/trade threads move? ;)

Know what i find even funnier....

When people want "rare" or "older" items and all they have for trade is a boat load of common figs.

If you want a trade you better have a fig thats just as rare or don't even bother.

If you have the cash just say I have 400 for a good old figure. that will bring the deal out every time if it exists ;)

The Bemon definitely seems in demand. Something else will take its place in the not too distant future though.

What is scary that people are surprised that someone would buy toys to actually keep and enjoy them.

Which creates even more hype and raises prices even higher.
People have to realize that they can't have everything.
They might have to even SHUDDER wait for months or years.

Shocking...

I still don't understand the whole "turnover" scene of buying toys only to sell them to buy other toys. Too much of a headache in my mind. I just make smart buying decisions and probably keep 98% of what I buy.

maybe you guys should start your own messageboard with a group of collectors who make smart buying decisions and keep 98% of what they buy

And there should be a messageboard for those who accidentally buy doubles of things, and another messageboard for those who greedy bastards who buy up doubles of hard to find stuff, and yet another messageboard for the lurkers and another messageboard just for the flippers and...zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Just saying that I've always seen alot of turnover and I never understood it.

Someone posts a showoff picture of their collection, with new pieces, then a week later is selling off the pieces. Doesn't make any sense to me.

Your forgeting about the for dillholes they pay stupid cash for something because it's hyped or hot, not because they actually like it then try to recoup said money when selling it.

Not talking about anybody in particular coz there a few of you, so don't get your panties in a bunch. If you do fit this catagory however, please do get your panties in a wad.

I've got 4 of 5, gave one away for a prize. Bad example though, nobody's buying those.
