Not sure if this has been posted before.. but there.. I wonder if that 'rich' guy will be getting this. HE cannot MISS this one.

Owned & listed by a member. Third time its been listed i think,thats if its the same one. First time it was listed awhile ago then it was removed before auction end,2nd time it was listed at 10000 & now its either been re-listed or the price upped to 25000. Can anybody say a big or an even bigger to the three offers already sent in. This is a seriously hard to find item i will admit but,c'mon rich or not you have to have a serious mental deficiancy to pay this much for a friggin statue. The whole mentality of prices paid recently for some things is getting a little ridiculous me thinks. I mean,i can see the good in it but,i also can see the bad in it

Yep - this is a member. This was up a couple of years back at $5k. I saw it up at $10k and then change to $25k. Pretty crazy asking price especially considering they have apparently sold in the past for $500!

Anyway, I gotta say, I'm quickly becoming quite jaded on the whole collecting scene after seeing some of the ludicrous prices and scalping.

This nonstop talk about scalping is ruining my thoughts on this very forum. Every time I come here it's always about "I bought four copies of this and sold two for 4x what I paid!" bragging nonsense, and nothing about collecting.

I have seen something like this said maybe two or three times on here?

It is certainly not constantly being said

Granted a lot of members do buy to resell but how often do they actually brag about it?

This particular thread is what I'm referring to in my previous post. There's essentially no discussion about the collecting aspect, just how much items are being sold for and how much money can be made.

In my opinion, no discussion of ebay/bragging/reselling should be allowed in these 'collecting' threads.

its gonna happen, although i do not believe it is as constant as you say it is

fact of life people will discuss the value of things some will sell at a high price

best thing to do is ignore it, not inflame it
