The amount of Aussie Sellers listing ‘NEW’ TLK Voyagers for $40+ (some as high as $76!) is outrageous!
Never mind us collectors. How many struggling families who can’t afford decent pressies for their kids at Xmas could have benefitted from picking up a big Optimus Prime for $5 - a lot that’s how many!
Scum! Pure scum!

I'm gobsmacked people would be attempting to buy up and scalp the $5 transformers.
I have been too bogged down with puppy, kids end of year stuff and MIL but I had been hoping to go and score a few of them to put into wishing trees and the like as I used to donate Transformers to children's charities in HK too; I love the idea of giving less fortunate kids 2 toys in one and hopefully a little inspiration as well.
The problem, I guess, is that scalpers don't care about other people as they are blinded by $$. I have had one encounter with a US scalper online who was proud of what he did. It scared me the rabid desire and pride he had for wiping out stores of stock and how territorial he was. Their mentality bewilders me.
