The Leia bespin card cracks me up the most....the picture is washed out to the point of complete white out and the edges show the white edges of the cheap backer board she used.........Oh...but it's real hun

Glad that thread was locked before I said something I regretted!
Nice to know that apparently collections like mine are " Highly frowned upon by a large number of our community" and comments like "I'd never want to own junk like that" yeah, really?
I'm feeling a bit flat about my set now, why didn't these members make their thoughts known on my limelight if their opinions on reseals are so strong. This sort of pack mentality does my head in.
Not having a personal attack here but I noticed one high profile member on there, (not here) "Likes" these comments yet is currently selling reseals in his for sale thread?!?!?!?!?!? WTF!
Oh well you gotta laugh but it I'm sure most of you would feel a bit **** if these sort of comments where made about something you took a lot of pride in putting together. Sigh!

Ryan, I understand why you are pissed off mate and think that there were a lot of sweeping comments made that don't ring true. I am sure they were aimed at Karen and her daft attempts to justify resealing cards
Your collection is immense and I would challenge anyone to say otherwise

I think it's more that you never stated they were anything other than reseals, you never lied saying they were sealed.
So no lie, no **** thrown.
My gripe with her has nothing to do with reseals at all, it's the fact that she is stating she doesn't have any and never will buy reseals/repros, it's the fact that she is lying.
And she commented on a watch-out thread about costablancastarwars, stating that a mate of hers bought from him and what he got was rubbish, yet costablancastarwars
is one of her favourite sellers.
Hope I haven't offended you in any way with any of my comments Ryan, reseals is a great way to collect on a budget if you can't afford MOCs,
in fact, for me, reseals will be the only way I could afford any of the 12 backs if I were to head down that route...

I can understand why some people would make these comments about reseals if it's something they don't want in their collection, although I feel it's each to their own as long as nobody's trying to pull the wool over anyone's eyes.
I have no problem with reseals and agree with the comment about the pleasure there is to be had putting these things back together. I'm sure all of us with reseals in our collections would love sealed copies but we either can't stretch to the cost of them now a days or maybe can't even find them available. I really just wanted to get a small piece of my childhood back and after first buying a few reproductions years ago when I started collecting, realised pretty quickly that I didn't want to go down that route......that said though I still do have a few very high quality ones of rare (ish) pieces I'll never be able to afford.
I do have a few that maybe could fool an untrained eye into thinking they're sealed and can see if I ever sold them on that someone could take advantage so I guess that's the issue for some people. I certainly would never knowingly do this though and these items are really just for me to enjoy and not something I ever really plan on selling.
With all that said I think it's just good that we all enjoy looking at our collections, no matter what condition and as long as we're not coning anyone then it's all harmless fun!

Hey Fellas,
I've got absolutely no grievance with anyone on here Jorn, no apology necessary mate, Karen's beyond all sense I'm not sure if she does it to wind people up or she is that far removed from reality that she believes what she says. I understand that most of it was aimed at her inane ramblings but as Iain said it's the sweeping comments that got to me I guess.
Just felt like some members saw it as an opportunity to belittle anyone who has reseals in their collection and the impression that they think those that do are stupid enough not to put safe guards in place to ensure they are never sold as legit bugged me. The two comments I quoted annoyed me the most, why do some members think it ok to make statements like that knowing full well it will make others feel like crap. Don't get it guess I never will which is why I generally stay out of threads like that one.
Well said Ian!!
SWFUK and it's inhabitants rocks, this place is more like a virtual pub minus the beer than a toy forum. RS sometimes feels like a school playground where all the cool kids hang by the shelter shed and throw **** at the less cooler ones :lol:

Dude- your collections are kick ass.
Nah- i see your point but i think she inflames the debates on purpose.
If your studying to be a doctor in university, and your loud and make wacky claims like the brain is made out of pizza, you have to expect negative comments.

Nothing wrong with reseals Ryan...I would buy everyone of yours :mrgreen: .....I think it is more like she is bat **** crazy and on RS....that is bound to bring out the best in them......as it did us. They are just slower to catch on.
Another thread intervention.
The Mods Are babysitting the threads like lawyers.
I has no idea you could inflame every thread your involved in.

To semi quote Todd - she give me wood
Soft wood
On a more serious note, I don't look at any of her threads as its sheer tosh - toronto tosh :lol: so I have no idea what the curent state of affairs is or what its all about, nor do I have any desire to know & I would suggest if you want a stress free day to do the same guys, as I have said b4, she is barking & on a sectionable (if thats a word?) level IMHO, she does it for atension & that is what she is getting - take the fuel away & the fire will fizzle out.

Totally agree frank- but the entertainment is like crack, not a good idea to do, but so much fun and without it is like watching 3D glasses.
Edit- This makes zero sense. Rum is a strong drink. :?
