This.
Point im making is that the so called problem is grossly over exaggerated. It is almost exclusively an excuse used for individuals who in a large market expect something they cant get right away. lets face it your not in most cases the sole collector out there hunting and a good majority are good collectors with good intentions buying something you want as much as them...when you call them a scalper you just come off petty
I can freely admit i buy multiples often, however i know several collectors whom we all help each other out as much as we can...even organizing large group buys for my USA runs...its a hobby as much as its a collective
