Lol maybe that's wrong too, I don't know. I just know that all Deadpools I find in the field will belong to me and will be sold to the highest bidder and Im 99% sure that goes for just about everybody on this site. That's just smart business. Ive done a bunch of deals on the Ark (with some great folks) and have never tried to rip anyone off. If I have something that the homie is gonna give me $10 for but this other dude is gonna give me $70.... sorry homie.

Like I said, not directed at anybody. I don't want no problems. I love yall, have a good day and God Bless... one.

Uh yeah I think that is the definition of a scalper. If you are buying something for yourself then it is cool, but when you buy all of something for the sole purpose of making a huge profit, that is a scalper. Lord Marvel gets plenty of stuff and snatches it up, but he does it to hook homies up and dosent charge way over what he got, just enough for shipping or perhaps a minor finders fee, that's it. Selling a new $10-15 figure for $70 is absurd, that is clearly taking advantage of someone, you didn't need to buy it, you could have left it there for a collector to find or let someone else hold that title of scalper. Older figures obivously have some exceptions as they are no longer made and out of production. I know with the new avengers figs, yes I bought all the Nick Furys, but I sold or traded them at cost. So like ShowYouSuck says I did it because it was homies helping homies.
