    You watch...the second you get one...there will be 60 for sale at half what you paid for. Its all part of the game. I considered picking it up... Did some research and got beaten to the punch. Them's the breaks

    He is pointing out that there will be a quantity of 60 for sale. He is being facetious about what it is like, you buy something you always wanted then a bunch of them show up for sale at half the price. Just how it feels sometimes.

    at least that's how I've always interpreted it
    That is correct.
    As long as there are official Transformers in the sale (preferably a majority), it is okay to have the one sale listing in the main saleyard.


    And we are only a small community, so "Wants" are really for the slim wishful hope of getting lucky.... the odds of success have always been very slim (they are not a guarantee), so most often are not fulfilled, because most people who have them to sell, would more likely list them for sale in the Sales section.

    That is a good point. If you look at my Wants Thread you will see I keep a tally of everything I have collected since I posted the Thread and the source. The vast majority are from eBay and even the ones where it is from a member, it is usually me noticing it in their Sales Thread, not them noticing my Wants Thread. It does happen though. Have a look at my Wants Thread and you can see from the posts how often someone has approached me. It is all patience.

    Sounds like someone should sit in on my wife's kindergarten class for the "needs vs wants" lesson

    In addition, There would not be any impossible toys figures re-produced in the Market.. Impossible toys has been shut down and its figures would only become rarer.


    In terms of "need" and "want', yes, I need it. The quint-02 and quint-03 at home both need their boss..

    Oxford Dictionary

    Definition of need in English:
    verb

    [WITH OBJECT]
    1Require (something) because it is essential or very important rather than just desirable.

    Important point highlighted for reference. Like I said, be patient, another will come along eventually.
