Oh I very much wanted to discuss this too because like you said they are intertwined .Valkrist wrote: Wed May 01, 2019 9:31 am
Sorry, I know that's not what you wanted to discuss but the two issues are very much intertwined so it's really impossible to ignore.
Good point. I mean you can still run across a good deal on ebay every now and then so it's not impossible to find these out there.Valkrist wrote: Wed May 01, 2019 5:24 pm
Nowadays every second item they release is either Limited or part of an open run that is still very small. They really do have to weight the costs of bringing these things to market, and yeah, there's always new collectors coming onto the market, but there are an equal number of people out there getting rid of their collections. Only caveat there is the premium on resale, and that, I feel, is where you don't want to get burned.

Deimos... are you suggesting Idril and I are guilty of this activity: ???
It’s one of my favourite sword designs. Seeing it in its scabbard really shows what a true work of art it is. Yes, it’s a bit different to what we expect from elves, but I still think it fits the rules of their culture that they set up.
Ronin, no need to be embarassed. Here you are allowed to like (and dislike) a collectible with impunity.
Phew! That's a reliefDeimos wrote: Thu May 02, 2019 11:27 pmRonin, no need to be embarassed. Here you are allowed to like (and dislike) a collectible with impunity.
We don't flame you....we will still think you worthy to be a forum-ite ... altho' perhaps a bit unhinged ....
For sure! I can't decide if I want to go Tolkien or something elseValkrist wrote: Fri May 03, 2019 5:59 am Ronin, you need to get yourself an avatar. Seeing that picture, whatever it is, just becomes synonymous in our minds with the person over time. I swear I can't see a picture of Arwen now without thinking of Idril… lol.
Just find a good picture of Tuor and caption it with: "I'm with stupid."Idril wrote: Fri May 03, 2019 12:27 pm If only there were a pic of Idril I could find that I like. I decided to go with a descendant mostly showing my sword (well, by PJs cannon anyway)
