The eBay Fiends

[woodsy]

How can we stop those traitors who buy Sideshow collectibles as instruments to make money?, they buy the limit amount Sideshow allow, then wait until they're sold out and sell them on eBay for usually double the market price. Truly genuine collectors who missed out are forced into paying crazy amounts because of these fiends.

I'm always on eBay and every time I see a Sideshow item I'm amazed at the price some of the sold out stuff goes for, remember the $6000 T-800 Endoskeleton 1:1 Scale Replica well a guy sold his for $14000, unbelievable. I just want to know if it's possible for Sideshow to separate the genuine collectors from the actual retailers and then from the smelly losers that are victimizing us all. I mean Sideshow are losing the most, they sell a figure to someone for $200 then it gets sold again for $500.

I missed out on a few things but I'm at the front of the queue for the new stuff now, if I see one that I missed on eBay I refuse to pay those guys that are the biggest flaw in the way Sideshow runs.

If someone can find a way to eradicate this from our beloved Sideshow it would be great.

What a great 1st post Comrade!

Translation :

I don't have a pot to piss in so in true commie pinko fashion I'd rather have everyone dragged down to my own pathetic level, as opposed to getting off my a** and actually doing something about my situation

I'm so glad there are enlightened "geniune collectors" like you out there, to show us "traitors" out there just how evil we really are!

Well to be honest I'm a paraplegic so I haven't gotten off my a** to do anything for 6 years, but I do believe the non collecting evil traitors should be found and banned from buying from Sideshow. As everyone says though it's impossible to get rid of the smelly disease. Maybe a cure can be found.

Why stop there? Let's just make it illegal for someone to buy a home if they intend on selling it for a profit. Let's make it illegal to buy shares in a company...hell let's just ban the stock market altogether. I will agree however, there is a smelly disease here...it's called socialism, and it robs a person's ability to think rationally. Unfortunately there is no cure for that either.

The difference between the stock market and buying collectibles is one's for making money and the others for collecting, it's dumb to even compare the two

That would probably help prevent some of the corruption in big corporations today if they did... they wouldn't have to lie to inflate stock prices for their investors.

Yeah you're totally right. I think the whole idea of buying collectibles is to collect not to make money. But as you can see with this thread the evil traitors have even got to use forums to verbally abuse us Sideshow lovers. The infestation has spread everywhere, I can't handle the smell.

You're a loser. You show up on a message board and your first post is to trash people who flip products? How about "Hi, I'm so and so and I collect this and that" and then feel the place out a little and get to know people before you jump straight up on your high horse with your first post.

Welcome to the board and

OK, as I mentioned early on, this is a hotly debated issue and I think both sides have said everything they can say on the subject. Locked.
