Just to be clear.. A good amount of people dislike those that buy up stock and resale at a higher price, not just selling figures.

Rofl, I would never compare toy customizing with DaVinci's works, but thanks for the sentiment.

Just to be clear.. A good amount of people dislike those that buy up stock and resale at a higher price, not just selling figures. Life gives us situations where we are pressed for time and must make quick actions. Someone dying suddenly and a family having to sell off that person's possessions is one of them. These people don't usually have the luxury of time or patience to sit around and get top dollar for the items. They just need to move everything out quickly. I've been in that situation myself. You are less concerned with making the most money you can because you're up against the clock to just get rid of everything. Sounds like the OP acquired some items because of such a situation. I don't think that makes him shady nor do I think he's wrong for joining a wrestling figure forum to inquire about items he may not know a lot about. I don't know how much this guy paid for the items but I would put real money on most of the people who play the scalper card would be the same people who weren't able to or interested in ponying up the cash that this guy did for the same lot of items. And if that's the case, what should happen to the items? Should the family just be stuck with them because no "real" collectors came forward?

Please just let Glenn rest in peace. The fact that you want to make money out of his work is disgusting.

I meant retail stock, the dudes that buy a $20 figure and go home and throw it right on facebook saying "$45+shipping. 8 available" I buy lots and resale stuff all the time. I dont know who glenn web is, nor do i care.

I dont know who glenn web is, nor do i care. Gotcha. I think trying to flip new figures from retail stores is mostly a waste of time in this day and age. So many people do it and the returns aren't worth the time investment. I just think it's funny when people who buy older items that aren't in retail stores to sell get called scalpers. Not saying you said that, but there are lots here who will call someone selling figures from 2010 "scalpers"

I'll never understand why some people are so touchy on here.
Nonetheless, I'm still interested in the pictures, OP. It'd be nice just to see what exactly you have.

If you've got nothing constructive to say why bother. Or are you just looking to start a fight? You only joined in November anyways, or is it a new account coz your last one was blocked?

My last account was not blocked, and I've been here since 2011. Whatever - I'm not going to sink to your level, have a good evening.
