>there's a faggot in Sweden buying up all the retro game posters from Yahoo Auctions and listing them on eBay for over 2x the price>I was outbid on one recently>I'm sure it will be popping up on eBay any day nowNot even this is safe from resellers nowadays. I've already stopped collecting physical games, but now they want me to own absolutely nothing.
>>12598786>but now they want me to own absolutely nothing.And you VILL ve happy
I got an Eternal Champions poster in a $5 copy of Aladdin.
>>12598786>I was outbid I have identified your problem
>>12598786>>there's a faggot in SwedenYou don't say?
Have you tried printing your own poster? Maybe you can get better paper than the original
>>12598786bid more?
>>12600791>>12600048I already bid more than any reasonable person would expect to pay
>>12598786Why didn't you buy it earlier?
millennialtroons are ruining retro gaming
>>12598786Just emulate>b-but muh heckin piece of moldy plastic!You don't care about the games
>>12598786Japanese stores should just ban foreigners entirely desuEven via proxies and forwarding services, or tourists in person, they should ban it all..I'd be buttmad that I couldn't buy stuff but I would accept it to keep Japanese culture in Japan.
>>12601128Japanese want to throw away their treasures though, there'd be no point in this case.
Is whole Europe, here:metroi zero fussion gba: 300 EurosSome average ps2 games from simple500 with 505 PAL relase: 400 euros
>>12598786Yes but you see, resellers are the sole reason collectors manage to get their hands on collectibles. The average person doesn't have time to scour flea markets, garage sales and online marketplaces for deals, so resellers play an integral part in making it possible that old junk that would be thrown out otherwise makes it to the hands of collectors who value them. Just think about it anon, before resellers started buying everything up NOBODY was able to have collections, now it's easier than ever to find the things you want online.(Note: I have legit seen people use this argument, almost verbatim, to defend resellers. I am not joking.)
>>12601116You're right except trannies ruin EVERYTHING
>>12601753No, not really. If they're selling them then clearly they aren't trashing them. Japan has an entire holistic economy of used goods being recycled and reused, and that includes random junk like posters. They sell them cheaply to allow people to save money because that's the right thing to do... Until they see gaijin faggots buying their shit, then next thing you know they want ¥500k for anything with a familiar character on it (because they know the gaijin will buy it anyway)This behavior by gaijin, just hoarding up all the used or collectible whatevers, ruins this system of "use gently, sell off cheaply, repeat" by removing thousands of products from the pool just because westerners are greedy reseller fucks or because they're hoarders with no purpose. This is why Hard-Off is more or less dead.I hate gaijin so much it's unreal>>12602221Good disclaimer, I almost lost my shit.
>>12602234anon, japs have been doing the same but much worse (hoarding and inflating prices) since the 70s with american clothing
>>12598786>retro game postersyou can literally print your own unless you want a real big banner, then you need a pro print shop or buy a giantical ass machine.
>>12602234>. Japan has an entire holistic economy of used goods being recycled and reused,no they literally trashed tons of their arcade machines. their older amusement park machines are also rotting away in suburbans.
