There are many who share your views, so no, you are not alone. I personally get disheartened when I see people asking high prices that I expect to see on eBay.
However, I am of the opinion that people are free to post whatever prices they want on Lost Dogs. No one has to buy them if they don't want to and if it's against forum rules, report them and the mods will lock the thread. I think far too many people get bent out of shape when they see those high prices and their posts to those threads sometimes get out of hand and contribute to the unpleasantness here for me. If no one responds, those threads will just die and the ones where people are doing right by the fans will be the most visible ones.

My humble opinion

Agree...

And some people needs a life... too much time here.

This guy is a prime example that makes lost dogs disheartening. Several items you sell at your 'pj shop' are available in the goods for way less than what you advertise. Lighters, stickers, posters that are all above the cost in the goods, right now.

Apparently, someone does have too much time making up a side business to rival the bands site.

Crazypjfan... why do you need to ruin this thread? A lot of meaningful thought was being shared here and now you come with your crazy antics. Your one of the biggest flippers on this board, yet you want to act all holier than thou...... cut it out man... it's lame..

No sir, actually it's posts like yours that makes Lost Dogs unpleasant for me, above and beyond the $500 backpacks, white Backspacer, etc. OP is trying to get a healthy discussion, please don't make this personal. If you have beef with Vic, take it to the PMs.

a kick in the balls to the tenclub

dude your killing me......As far as i can see no one is buying the lighters....and certainly no one has to.

In fact I recall the statement in that thread being quite prevalent 'I would prefer to trade'......maybe that was lost on some.

I just commented on the prices and the fact that sumay is disheartened because of it, that's all. My example isn't a good one? :roll:

You made your point on another thread... Do you really need to go around and state that same point on every post VIC makes? And for the record I don't know who VIC is- so I'm not trying to stick up for a friend. I just feel your ruining a meaningful thread.... Why don't you share something on the subject... if not interested, then move along like the rest of us....

I commented on something that pertains to this thread with an example. I'm sorry if that offended any of you. wow

I think you missed the sentence right after, and everything else that followed, which was really my point. However, I am of the opinion that people are free to post whatever prices they want on Lost Dogs. No one has to buy them if they don't want to and if it's against forum rules, report them and the mods will lock the thread.

What is disheartening is the lack of substance to any of your replies on a subject. when presented with reason, you tend to do the ' :roll: ' thing, and make a flippant comment like 'Im done here'....

Dude, the guy has a blatant disregard for the rules and you were the first to support that. pm me if you want to talk about it..

Sorry to the op for my little rant/derailment. I thought it fit into the context.

Carry on...

Is that against the rules?

This forum should have the best deals on hard to find PJ items, but I don't think you can fault people for selling the items at market value, either. There are many postings on this board that heighten the lameness more than people selling stuff for what it costs on ebay...highjacking FS threads b/c you don't like the price, posting threads with no prices, making offers by pm to said threads....People that do those things should lose their access to the LD forum, imo.
