I just won this auction.
GI Joe 25th anniversary clear blue Wraith variant MOSC. - eBay (item 140298167432 end time Feb-05-09 19:07:58 PST) I needed this figure but feel guilty for buying it cause it so expensive. I have this fear that I will not be able to find this figure at retail so I just went for it. I wish I would of boughten it when BBTS had them for $30. Anybody feel the same way? Especially, when you think you should of been able to buy the figure at retail for 7-8 bucks. Of course when the shit hits the fan.... then your going to be angry but thats the price you pay for 'collecting' sucks........... but what can ya do |

Nah, don't feel guilty, especially if you're happy you have the figure.
Because of the hyperlink underline on the first page, I always read "guilt" as "quilt" in a thread title. So I read this thread as "Clear Blue Wraith variant...quilt" and I thought, someone made a variant Wraith quilt, sounds interesting! imagine my disappointment. |

don't feel bad. I wouldn't buy a blue wraith for $5 but thats just me. I don't care how rare it might be, I think it looks stupid. Congrats on getting the figure though

Yeah I felt guilty for buying 2 at 30. each off of BTS. Which I thought that was pretty lame on there behalf to sell for so much when they buy direct. But now it looks like I'm going to come out ahead.

buy them now while they are $45.00....that way you avoid the whiner list when it hits $100.00 and the completist in you is dying on the inside.

Ah, don't let it get you down. As soon as you're paid again, you recoop your loss and it's over with. Besides, we've all been there. At one time or another, everyone spends more (in some cases waay more) on something they want and immediately regret it. Those who say they don't lie or are embarrassed by it. Most learn from it and move on and spend more frugally in the future. Others spend with reckless abandon and take solace in the fact that they have a multitude of rare items that others would love to have a portion of.
If this is the worst thing you do, you're good.

I traded for one straight up for an Eel - when they were abundant in my area. Would like to have an opener though, but I'm not paying those insane prices.
