IMO it's better to have a name in this community as a good person to deal with than to make a few extra dollars. I have met a bunch of collectors both local and out of state who have helped me get my collection where it is and I want people to say the same about me. I even have a few good connections at local antique, comic shops and flea markets because of this. I had a guy last week give me a bunch a parts I was trying to buy from him because he mistakenly had some Joe's labled as Corps figures and I told them who and what they were.
Nicely put.
