I am glad for that. Everyone I have bought I have been able to get the exclusives if not less than at what retail was even years ago. Sucks if you collect hoping your pieces will increase. Me, I don't really care. I just wanted them on my shelf.
When I buy stuff that I intend to keep i also don't buy hoping the price will increase....however I surely don't want to know that I bought something at retail for $300 only to have it available for $200 a few months down the road.
