And I'm not sure why people choose to take that "so up in arms with people that don't share the same opinions" angle when that is CLEARLY not what the issue is.

If people have different opinions than me, fine. Great. Share them. It's HOW you share them that is obviously the problem. I never cease to be amazed at how many people online have no interest at all in civil conversation and just want to adopt the "If I yell the loudest people will pay attention to me" mentality. There's no middle ground with these people; everything is either the greatest or worst thing of all time. It's nauseating and exhausting.

It has absolutely nothing to do with "growing a pair" and everything to do with having some standards in regards to how people communicate with each other. If you're someone who sees no issue at all with people communicating like immature douchebags, good for you. Enjoy it. I personally have no interest in seeing it because people like that add NOTHING to conversation other than aggravation and eye rolling. They don't deserve attention, they deserve to be ignored. If you want to be treated like an adult, act like one. And if you don't care about being treated like an adult, then I don't care to interact with you. I have no interest in giving 7 year olds the satisfaction of the attention they so clearly, sadly crave.

Or your regular schmoe just likes to waste money. I say the latter. Some of these people dont value their collection, calling it just toys. Yet they sunk about $50k-$100k or more into it, like it was nothing.
This is good stuff. Better than college.
I do appreciate the economics of the statue game

I think most people here lie.

I don't see this glut that everyone else proposes. The sky is not falling, I wouldn't have purchased the new pieces I have in the past year if it weren't for the sales on eBay. People do lose interest in things, it happens. I have my transformers from when I was in the 5th grade, I don't think I've kept stuff longer than that. I don't think that's normal.. but whatever.

People are free to do what they please with what they purchase, so long as it doesn't incite violence towards others.

eBay sales are pretty steady btw. all my last 20 purchases were financed by the sale of pieces I no longer have an interest in. It wasnt hard to sell it off..

6 ignored messages from 2 of the biggest tools on the site after my last post. Why am I not surprised.
