People value stuff differently, I'll never pay $900 for a batman statue or $72000000 for an old Chevy.

You said "Instead of getting nice $100 statues, why not get one massive one that is many times more epic and scarce". Who would get nine of the same $100 statues? Why people buy $100 statue when there's a $900 and better one? Not everyone can afford a $900 statue. The way you said it sounds like "you're stupid to get the $100 one when there's a $900 and better one". It offends people, not only people who bought the $100 one.
I'm providing a logical alternative view for those writing off a $900 statue as "too expensive". You seem to taking that personally which is your personal choice. You can disagree with my view and provide logical reasons why you disagree and hence the discussion can continue. Getting upset and taking things personally about a discussion is not a productive addition to this thread.

You also completely missed the point of this line: "Instead of getting nine $100 statues, why not get one massive one that is many times more epic and scarce". Where did I say you had to get the SAME nine statues? My point was, if people can afford nine $100 statues, they can certainly afford ONE $900 statue. If you feel offended because you bought the $100 one, then maybe you shouldn't have bought the $100 statue? Getting offended means you believe someone is attacking you, if you believe I am attacking you, then you have missed the entire point of my posts.
