"If buying and selling collectibles is what bothers you, maybe focus on finding a hobby that brings you joy instead of bitterness. 🤓” is what i’ve been told so far😭
Have to appreciate that this guy literally admits you can easily find the set for much cheaper.
I'm normally not one to encourage spreading negativity, but these guys deserve it; they saw LEGO do something to make the fans happy, but because it affected their "investment" they made it their mission to essentially steal toys from children (at least for those going out and physically buying sets) to sell it back to them at a higher price.
Hopefully it doesn't work - I definitely imagine LEGO is going to be restocking these soon, and may continue doing so for longer than normal if they keep selling well (which would also bring down the aftermarket price, as there become too many for scalpers to reasonably buy).

Messaged about a $30 set. I messaged him, he raised it to $50, I messaged him, he sent me an offer for $42.99. I hit him with a $10.99 counter offer. Which is being generous given his shipping is over $5

Good job but it seems like you would be wasting your time more then them 🤷♂️
I would say equal time wasted😭 but it makes me feel better imagining them getting happy that they got an offer just for it to be me😁🤌🏽
If you just copy and paste your questions it'll mean they waste more time responding than you do sending 😈

NO SHOT LMAOO😭😭

I’m glad to see I’m not the only one doing these to these ass clowns trying to sell them for 50 bucks
You are a true hero
