I mean I missed out on CW Sky Lynx, and now there's a Commander sized one on its way.
Also in the long run, patience will always yield results. I had pretty much given up on getting TM2 Black Arachnia at a decent price. I had wanted one since it came out, but distribution wasn't so good. Ten years later, I walk into collectibles shop, and there she is sitting in a case for more than a reasonable price.

Same story here.
I've been looking for both CW Quickslinger and Brake-Neck since they were released online. I don't know why I didn't just buy them when they were regular price! Anyway, eBay and aftermarket prices blew my dream out the window for a while. Then suddenly, when browsing the two once again, boom! A seller had them for 25$ US each. With the conversion and shipping, I paid around 33$ each. Not a bad price considering the alternatives. I couldn't believe it, and now they're mine.
Patience does indeed pay off.
