I was with you until you said you smell your dates. I appreciate a pleasant smelling woman, but i just picture you sitting in a car with them sniffing armpits.

Well, There are 2 ways of looking at this issue.

MISB will command top dollar due to never being removed or played with.

AFA collectors will pay premium price to get C9 or better for grading.

For re sale, boxes are critical to market value prices.

No one including myself would premium price for loose figure.

You would be lucky of you get 1/2 value without original boxes and loose or played with.


Loose collectors do not care of box condition.

The problem is if they want to move figure chances will be difficult.

Prices are drastically affected due to figure not being new and used.

The moral is if you want resale in future better off keeping MISB. You will get your money back and some more.


Loose collecting means enjoying figure. The draw back is loosing significant resale value.

That would make you an investor and not a collector.
 
Wait I'm confused, this a thread about loose collecting vs boxed (And new car smell.) or a fetish thread about a dude who steals women's underwear when they're not home? :lol
 
I open about 95% of my toys but keep the boxes just in case. Now days its not that big a deal if its been opened and displayed as long as it has the original box you will get about the same resale prices. The only things I keep unopened are things where the packaging is important like my Wedding of the Century Muppets. Open it and its not really anything special because its the box that makes it unique.... plus it has a window front so you can see it anyway.

As far as secretly smelling woman's underwear..... no comment. :)
 
All of my Buffy 6" figures are still in their original packaging. Those are the only things I've ever left in the package.

Women.

Boxes.

Smell.






Also, what's a candy bay? Is that like on the out skirts of candy land?
