Smoke and mirrors

A bit like women walking into a bar - if the 'leader' of a group of guys passes a comment that she is desirable the other guys follow the lead and she ranks up a few notches on the overall desirability scale - men frequently find attractive women that other men have declared attractive whether they are or not...
Yes I totally agree with this

I've gotten a couple extra copies of the belgian killzone stickerbook and while I've managed to sell two so far, I think they're worth far more than I'm asking considering what people pay for SSX and Ken's Rage etc. and how much rarer it is then those

Honestly I think the average steelbook collector doesn't know anything about these steelbooks and therefore doesn't consider them rare

I mean with the dead island stickerbook being so popular you would think people would understand that more stickerbooks have been produced sigh
