Not sure what you're gloating about. You got a toy cheap? Why do you care what other people do with their money? It's like you have some stake in the spending habits of others. I think you're just being mean-spirited for the sake of it.
And I know you're being facetious, but you can't compare basic commodities like bread with luxury or "non-essential" goods like toys.
When an item is limited, the idea is that you want to get it before it sells out. Sometimes it does actually become difficult and more expensive to find once it goes OOP, especially these Hot Toys. If you're buying just because it's "limited" that may or may not be a good idea, but with Hot Toys, once it sells out of the retail chain, the price becomes dramatically more expensive, and that's why people become concerned about it and the production runs.
BTW, I'm not defending anyone who purchased their figure for a higher price. I'm just saying you're trolling those people and it's not necessary or relevant to the thread.
