Make relationships with fellow collectors and look out for each other. Try to come up with solutions to problems in the fandom. If there is a preorder coming up and it is a limited item, order an extra one and sell it to another collector at cost that you have such a relationship with or post it for sale at cost, I have seen that done on these boards with the Pit of Judgement.
Just a hypothetical question to end this post.
Am I in the wrong if I were to clear out a store of an item on sale only to donate them all to a local toy drive as it is screwing others out of fairly obtaining some sale items?

I would love it if more collectors had that kind of spirit. Thinking of others, not themselves. Be it helping out fellow fans in the way you have described, and I have done many times; or doing something generous like donating to a toy drive. My heart would be full.
We do see many people on cybertron.ca who have a good spirit. Sales threads that are fairly priced. People who are posting links or "in stock" notices on the various sightings threads, which help others. Sightings in general.
