Re: I'm really, REALLY going to sell these this time (and other well intentioned lies
My experience is a little bit different. I will buy a new item and often justify it by telling myself that I will be selling off certain figures in order to offset the cost. My biggest obstacle when the time comes is usually not being able to accept the current perceived market value for these figures. After dabbling in the 3rd party market a few years ago, I was only able to recover a percentage of what I paid for them. Very disappointing. The demand just wasn't there. I should mention that when I finally got rid of my stuff, I never gave it a second thought. It was actually quite liberating. I'd go ahead and pull the trigger if I were you. HasTak will always be coming out with new stuff. You just need to ask yourself how many versions of a particular figure you need before you are satisfied with what you have in your collection. Even better if you are able to just stick to only G1 and Masterpiece, or whatever line(s) it happens to be that you collect.
