It's just the same old arguments on both sides that will never change.

They both have valid points and the biggest difference is where they are coming from in buying HL products.

Collectibles were in a different category from most items but unfortunately the realities of the 21st century and the changes in the company selling the items doing things as Dave describes is a bit like putting the genie back into the bottle.

It's human nature- we all want a bargain and we'll find it if it exists and there are enough legitimate sellers who no longer play by the rules (and have not done so for quite some time).

Chastising someone for doing something that on many levels is the logical, intelligent and prudent thing is a bit off base at this point in time.

I'm a bit out of this all together as I just don't have the room - or the desire- to aqquire more items.
