[QUOTE="TrisCompany, post: 387382, member: 6418"] As long as the films and marketing machine keeps SW in the general current consciousness I can't ever see prices going down although I think there will be a trend towards certain items such as 12 backs, VCJs and other 'popular' stuff getting ridiculous whilst other stuff such as ROTJ and less trendy loosies staying about the same. I've been an SW fan all my life, first film I ever saw at the cinema was ROTJ and on one hand love the fact that it's still current and loved, but must admit although FB has a lot of positives, the dick wangling of some people with a bit of cash trying to look hard/ good by wanking off about new things for a popularity fix when they obviously have an inferiority complex themselves does my head in. Whereas I love this forum for it's purity, the knowledge, occasional wit, and genuine camaraderie. The difference here that very few of us know who each other are, unless volunteered, so if you post an item in the LA thread it's because you genuinely want to show other people a cool item without some sort of ego trip. You have a debate here and it's because it's worth debating not just to score some points about your cash or your collection with people that can see who you are. This forum fuels my passion for the hobby, it's great to be able to read and digest what true experts think about a hobby who have genuine intentions. Don't get me wrong FB is useful, but there's no comparison in terms of quality, mission or content. Diatribe over. I'm off to share an image of a 12 back a Luke DT on SKU that I just bought for $80,000 dollars on FB (just kidding). The forum is at its best though when big debates kick off and its really important that the forum continues to encourage all to post and gives a platform to all no matter their opinion or knowledge. Unless they are c#nts. [/QUOTE]
