Bro Vracula at SF sum it up nicely about this open ES crap:
There are different types of collectors, but all the best collections in the world are the ones with the rarest items. Its a fact. Limited exclusivety is a major drive to this hobby take that away and u have porcelain beanie babies.
Don't collect SS items then. Because really. 1000 or more is not really "rare" Not like a one of a kind or a limited edition of 50.
I mean Look at the Hulk PF. Sure it goes for 2000.00 sometimes but in the world of collecting that would be laughed at by the pros.
