And by temporary I too was thinking more along the lines of September, but in the grand scheme of things it is temporary. I have to think that way as my share portfolio took a battering this past two weeks. Now to go buy some more bargains in order to fund my future spendings.

OK I did say roughly ~0.85, it was between 0.80 and 0.85 in February, March of 2018.
And yes I too am accustomed to the difference that I have to pay but at the moment I am saying to myself, do I really need to or do I want to

I must be looking at the wrong historical charts as I don’t quite see that, but it was close enough in January..... but I’m being picky.
But yes, you should only buy what you deem is worth it. Ask most people on the street, and they probably wouldn’t pay two bills for the stuff we buy, let alone one.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

I would love if they got Brainiac or TDKR Superman.

Well hopefully every piece missing for the last 1.5 years will trickle in and cap off this fiasco on a positive note. Personally I'd rather continue buying these pieces from SS because of their flexible return policy. I didn't start having issues with my P1 pieces till after the two went silent with each other.

Their shipping is still insane though, what was it like $350 to ship deathstroke from SS?

Small next to “other” 1/3 scale pieces, big piece overall against 1/4 scale - alex from radd titan said it looked like a “big 1/4 scale” when he saw it in person
