Some people do really have life problems, unplanned emergencies, etc. But I can assume that the majority are just buying whatever SSC puts out without thinking responsibly. In amazed to see some people in every single thread buying EVERYTHING but then saying: "I had to sell this to afford that" "gotta wait for payday so that I can get it" or the typical "it goes on storage until I can find a place to display them". I blows my mind to think that my Collectibles will be confined in an storage room, inside a box for whatever time period. That, to me, is not a way to collect. Get a place first! Priorities ppl!
I totally agree, but I also think that alot of people on this forum that claim not to have room to display them or need the money to afford a bill are flippers ...... If i know someone bought an EX with the intention of gouging me.... I am not paying their premium. I would rather buy it at my LCS or an online store at a bigger fee than give it to someone fronting they are a collector. That is why dispite a few sellers on this forums prices being decent I will not buy from them.
