Lol, yeah drinking and bidding is dangerous ... But at least you don't sound bitter about it. Does look like a nice box

Not bitter when it's $20. If it had been say $50, then there would have been tears!

 

[yeslek]

Plus if you have steel's of the movie, you can out the first and invitable second in the same box, with room for the probably 3rd

 

[C.C. 95]

So I picked up the boxset at auction for 20 bucks!!!

Of course drinking and bidding rarely go well together. The fine print naturally mentioned that the the auction was for the box only haha.
Whoops

Nice box though

Oh my. Lesson learned I guess!

I've been thinking about doing the exact same with an empty box I've been looking at on eBay, is a 3rd film confirmed?

Already plummeted in value confirming that ML releases have the lowest reselling potential despite most of them being excellent. This is why I seldom participate in ML GBs as they are easy to obtain through other means.

Lenti ended at 34 and 1/4 slip ended at 40 yesterday evening. Few weeks before it ended around similar price.

Most people aren't buying to resell.

 

[lgans316]

Most people aren't buying to resell.

If most means 50% then I agree.

Most buy with the intention of not re-selling but with so many releases, you will be forced to sell to make room and money for another release. So eventually it is put on sale at some point in time. Back in 2012, I used to sell very little but since then I am left with no other choice but to collect and sell some to make room for something else.

I don't think it's 50%.
Reports of the resale value of FA slowing certainly didn't affect members being just as robust in the FA GBs as they have been in the past.

It's a lot higher than 50% as most purchase to keep and open and use and not to buy to resell

Not every collector looks at a release in terms of it's re-sale or possible investment value they simply purchase a release because they want it.
Some will then later replace it with another release as in new remaster or new extras or keep both releases
A lot of collectors actually give away the older releases to friends or family if they don't have the space to keep as in not look for money.

You have some serious collectors who convert rooms in their property and have building extensions done just for the purpose of display and storing a collection.

A lot of the ebay listings especially the earlier listings are simply re-sellers and are not a collector selling a release because they run out of space to keep it.
You will see a ebay listing usually 1 year or later if it's been sold because it's been replaced by a better version of that release.

Most people don't have wings of their house they can just set up collection rooms. It would be nice be realistically most of us have a cabinet in the living room or shelves in the bedroom.

Reselling is always spoke about with bitterness here. If you sell something no matter how limited for whatever reason it's like you are a judas to the community.

I have a purge every now and again. Sometimes you need the extra funds to finance newer releases or sometimes you just need to clear space. I at one point was collecting 100% manta releases, both full and lenti.. Then I stepped back after the kingsman set came out and thought do I really need 4 copies of Kingsman? Its a good film but not a film I love like the Marvel movies. Then I decided at that point to sell most of my fullslips from Manta and Nova and collect solely lentis cause they're my favorites. If I'm listing on eBay everything starts at 99p and goes for what it goes for.

With this culture of every company doing boxset after boxset now with 3 or 4 exact same copies of a film inside bar the packaging a lot more things will be sold on eBay I imagine.

Everyone here has probably bought an extra copy of something to sell on for a profit atleast once. It doesn't make you the devil but most the time it's a means to an end to get something down the road. Is it any less bad to buy an extra copy you know will be high in value to trade for something else high in value than buying it to sell on?

Not everything is going to be FAC's AASB where someone is going to pay $500.00. Besides the company has only been around for a little over a year.

I think the difference is some people buy multiple copies with the sole intention of making as much profit as possible and not selling because of storage issues/upgrading/financial problems/quitting etc.

 

[nekromantik]

I finally got mine!
Yay

I was watching the 1/4 slip auction, £40 plus postage was my limit though so missed out

Yeah I had a limit set too but then saw Full Slip B on the bay for cheaper then others and went for it!
Probably last time I will pay scalper prices for a SB!

I don't think anybody has a problem with that.

This^^^
It's the guys who are obviously only in it for the resale that bother people.
(The ones with multiple accounts, etc.)
It's a free market, etc. but when people see it as taking away from a finite GB when people genuinely want a copy, it rubs them the wrong way.

 

[sunnyx]

Yeah, and there is one 'serious' collector as you described selling his entire collection for $1M
A very serious collection right?

Not sure if you understood my post
The lot higher than 50% is in relation to customers who purchase a release to open/use and not purchased to for the purpose to re-sell
As in most purchase to keep and use in their collection and not for the purpose to re-sell and not purchased for some possible re-sale value

It's a minority who purchase with re-sale value in mind as in re-sellers

Not everyone on HDN
I not ever purchased any extra copy of something to sell on for profit not ever
It's very rare I have purchased an extra copy as in exact same edition and when I do it's sold at retail price as in not a single cent profit and I even given some away for free
I also know some others who purchased extra copies not to sell for profit but sold at retail price

 

[Flloydo]

I may be wrong but I think @lgans316 might of been a bit sarcastic with the 50% comment and he's taking the p*ss and it seems to have gone over heads

I may be wrong though
