>>9769070Because I don't keep my toys in my boxes. If I did that, I would just not even bother buying them, because it's a waste of money. You'd be better off just printing a picture of the collectible and hanging it on your wall. Basically, the same thing, and you save a lot more money.
>b-but their value in thirty years!Shut the fuck up. There is literally only one toyline that ever had that kind of re-sale power and that was the original Star Wars toys. That is NEVER going to happen again. Yeah sure, maybe if you sit on that Figuarts Dodoria for 30 years, you can list it on eBay for $10,000, but who the fuck will actually buy it? Like I said, only the original Star Wars toys had that. They had the ridiculous re-sale prices AND people actually paid for them.
You will never get rich re-selling toys. You will never pay for your kid's college re-selling toys. If you're buying toys for preserving their value, just don't buy them. You are better off just saving your money.
