Since there are "ELITE" members . . . why not "HATERS OF THE ELITE" or "ELITE OF THE HATERS" or "ELITE NON-COLLECTORS" or "ELITE WHINERS" since some of us are all about distinguishing the difference?
What's next? We're going to complain about that all of the GI JOE RAH offerings from Sideshow INCLUDING the 12" figures are overpriced in terms of design & quality and how Sideshow needs to lower their prices across the board regardless of loss/profit . . . and complain about how dare they even think about making a profit at our expense?
The one trend I've witnessed as a collector . . . not just of products by Sideshow . . . is that the collector mentality is giving way to the cheap@$$/cheapskate mentality across the board. I see it in a variety of online collector forums. There are some who are still stuck in a perpetual ignorant pricing mentality that today's pricing should still be pricing from say . . . 10 years ago, but some of the same whiners . . . they know who they are . . . but I digress.
