    To be fair, he is giving us 10C members a $9 discount. It's listed on that fuck site for $59. =))
    This guy should have his membership revoked for this kinda bs. Am I wrong?
    Although I don't agree with this person, why should he be kicked out? He didn't violate and 10c policy. All this should do is make people remember the name and file it for future doings.
    Is it not against policy to *Flip? He is buying items on ebay and taking advantage of others with the sole purpose of flipping here in the lost dogs for exorbitant amounts. Maybe I'm wrong?
    I have to agree with tinz

    10c products is the rule. 99.9999% of the people who sell shit on this board are technically flipping. He's just going about it in a bad way. I don't agree with him at all. I actually had an issue with him on the FB board. But what he's doing isn't 10c kicked off worthy.

    How's it worth $50 when he just paid $20?

  • the "free market" debate will go on forever here. isn't the point here more about the manner in which the OP chooses to handle deals with PJ fans and friends?

    I don't begrudge anyone for selling stuff because they need to lighten their collection or need the money or even if an item starts fetching a ridiculous price, but buying stuff just to mark it up and sell it the next day does not sit well with me. I've seen several people on here do it regularly (to the point where I wonder if they have real jobs). I make a mental note of them and refuse to deal with them unless I get the item for cost, which I have been able to do on occasion (specifically a QOTSA Emek A/P that I missed out on and as soon as I came here I saw it posted with a big markup that I refused to pay, but I got it for cost plus shipping, and if I hadn't I would have lived).

    What happened with the stickers was just a shitty thing to do. Asking for a favor and then flipping the item...not cool.

    Just my opinion and how I choose to handle it. I'm glad to see others are doing the same and refusing to deal with those people.

    I must of missed out on the sticker ordeal. I usually just buy, don't normally sell but I did sell a pj soccer jersey for what I paid for it last year. I almost bought that hat off of ebay for what he paid for it but didn't pull the trigger. Then I see this post and got a laugh out of it. Seems like this dude has had some issues before. Not cool.

    How's it worth $50 when he just paid $20?

    Exactly, the market just said it's worth $20, how's it worth $50? 8-}

    Well, I may have mis-worded that I guess. I mean it would be worth $50 to me if I wanted it, regardless of what he paid. I mean, this Vault Vinyl #4 sells here for $50. Unfortunately, some people will be selling theirs for $150 within a month of the vinyl selling out. My real point was I can't understand how folks can rag on this guy or anyone else for "flipping" items when it is so totally commonplace here. Buy low, sell high. I can't really say that it's "right" but I'd feel like a total hypocrite in our capitalist society if I passed judgement on someone looking to turn a profit. But then, I don't know this dude's history with the stickers or whatever. I may have overreacted I guess and I apologize if I insulted anybody.
