People who hoard toys suck. I'm in a pissed off mood today, and let me tell you something, buying 4 of the same limited figure because you have enough money to throw around realy sucks. What sucks even more is waving it at people who want the figure for some stupid sum of money. Learn about the word community before you consider yourself part of one.
i'm hoarding jled gameritas... if anyone wants one they have to come through me. i will not negotiate!!
This happened to me on YJA, the guy outbid me to buy and use a duplicate Cronic for trade bait on SB (he's still trying atm). It was obviously a double since he posted collection pics prior. I've gotten PMs from other SB Cronic collectors when he put it up for trade "didn't he outbid you for that on YJA now its trade bait?" Other people who collect Cronic did notice and were/are watching. Almost all other serious Cronic collectors have that piece too except me. Getting an improvement to my collection blocked sucked but its to be expected sometimes.
I paid ridiculous amounts of money buying up pink Evils. I just want my money back so I want you to pay for my stupid greedy mistakes. I WILL NOT NEGOTIATE.
Most recently the pink bubble evil. There are some real douche bags frequenting the board now-a-days, they don't give a fuck about our little collecting community. It's all about them and what they can collect (buy $$$) or hold over your head for ransom (hey I just scored "insert newest limited release here" and I know you were looking for it, I'll trade you for your "older impossible to find RxH", deal?) No deal, fuck off.
It is pretty sad... figure hording was one of those "KR" type things that we didn't really see on this board, but I guess it's here now. Sigh...
This has been a building problem here for some time and I am surprised it has not surfaced in it's own thread earlier. It really pisses me off when you really want a figure and try to get it and then it pops up in the BST as trade bait!!! WTF? Did you buy it just to wave in peoples faces? Look what I got and I want this really! Total BS. Then to buy multiples? greater BS!!! I hate to say it, this community is bordering on the "others". We have brought greed WITHOUT honor to the East!
Unfortunately, douchebags tend to bring their douchebaggery with them, wherever they go. ,,,,,peace, hillsy-san
Old style: Make an offer New style: Trade Bait Wow I got some hot new mini RxH anyone want to trade it for an Old Balance Chaos!!!!! Can we set a number of days a new release can go from purchase to trade flipped or something?
I can even remember dealing with toy hoarders when I was a sprout collecting Star Wars shit. WTF, you have 3 Yodas? Fuck off, you're still not getting my Boba Fett.
OK I admit it I bought 4 of those Gonions from the last Patchi-Summit and now they are hanging out with some potted plants as part of my "Gonion Forest". I know you guys are all dying to get your hands on my Gonions but it's OK I won't hold them over your head. If you feel that you have been unfairly deprived of a Gonion I'll sell you one for like 10bux (maybe, if you ask nicely). I loooooove collecting figures nobody cares about!!! PS My Gonions aren't really for sale
the new surge of big spenders and hoarders has pretty much turned me off of rxh all together. its probably for the best, so much other good shit dropping from other awesome companies. either way.. hoarding sucks, trade flipping sucks.. and lately the board just doesn't feel like it used to. i get annoyed when reading threads way too often these days!
But will you trade a duplicate Gonion Velocitron? Perhaps a trade involving Anraku, a Bemon, or possibly an MM (Andy, Iggy, or even Greg)?
seriously though, if you want to do this shit that's your deal, but don't expect me to buy into it. I have enough of a network of friends where I can try and track down toys I want, but you know what, dealing with this isn't on my agenda. Until it becomes a zero tolerance issue on this board, it's going to continue. And every time I see it I'm going to call it out. You naysayers who want this to be a "nicer board", forget it. I'm calling people out from now on. All of you toy hoarders can suck it.
I have 10 extra clear GID Boogie-men that are MIB and 9 of them I will sell for the low low price of $500 a piece... so who needs one...???
Out there on the intertubez, I envision this evergrowing douchebag list. Over a hundred pages of douchebaggery.
Damnit!!! I don't even have a HP GID Bemon loose but if I did Pachi Gonion would be coming to the US (I figure you'd give in on the MIB requirement)...
