I think you just answered your own question, near the bottom where it says "posted with iphone".

Doucheinem has had it out for me for months now showing the true troll he is and probably in part explains why someone that unstable isn't a mod anymore. You're not being poked at, it just happens we both agree enough it looked that way. Had I never posted, that image would have never shown up because he likes to make things personal and is too goddamn ignorant to remember I have him on message block so I can't see anything he writes unless I choose to view it so he's just bitching into the wind for his own petty amusement.
3/10; needs more entitlement and whine.

You got it. Any joe nobody willing to bear the potential roaming fees it takes to frequent stores with their phone can look up values on the spot.

I dont know why I feel compelled to say this but:

For what it is worth DS is an asshole who likes to instigate. That being said though, it is often times funny and many time correct. Though I have had some disagreements with him on here he has not befallen to straight insulting me. I may have resorted to some names but memory ill serves me. Regardless, I respect his opinion and sadly :D think he is a decent dude from my experience here. Hell I even do a deal with him once in a great while.

Sometimes I just think he is trying to make people see and understand both sides of things by irritating them! Oh yeah, and he makes a great sig,

The problem with Tanooki is one I have documented before (and that link goes to more links...). He regularly makes baseless, hyperbolic, misinformed, and/or inane and insulting comments regarding a range of topics on which he clearly has no clue, and then gets pissy when someone has the audacity to point this out to him. So many of his posts bring nothing of value to the forum, many of them are directly oppositional to people in it, and I cringe every time I see he's chimed in with whatever narrow view of things he's likely to offer on a topic.

I don't know if pointing all that out makes me an asshole. I do know that I wouldn't mind if he either A) shuffled off or B) learned to make his points by employing something approaching reason.

Asshole is in jest, instigator on the other hand!!

By the way, your sig is funny, I just noticed it LOL

In the cycle of life, isn't it one thing that feeds another?
Over time things evolve.. To adapt.
True there is such thing as predator and prey.. But is it what we call ourselves or how we see it?
Therefore in my theory a reason for being.

Translation:
Thre is none, sounds like this thread is about wishing of a time that has passed and not knowing the future, while living the present.

My advice:
Dealing with collectible hobbies is fun for every collector to hope for value is what everyone would appreciate, then there are some price is no limit for their passion, hence why you see these "hikes" which is more of demand to have in fact. Especially with things no longer in production.

If you can see the future while remembering the past, you may just have control of the present.
