[QUOTE="Afroconan, post: 9408455, member: 80331"] Claiming it's collectible makes it so. People will buy it for the purpose of collecting them. And my car analogy is exactly the same. The word "usable" in your answer is doing a ton of work right there. Aren't the dice usable? If you buy a car for the wheels, the wheels work as well, you just don't need the car... That's why instead you buy wheels, just the same as you'd buy just the dice. They are not overcharging for anything. Because nobody else is selling the same product. And that's my point and why I call statement like yours disingenuous. If they were selling only the dice for 37 usd then you'd be right. But that's not what they are selling so you are just plain wrong. And for that matter. I personally don't see the value so I won't buy them, but what I'm not doing is getting mad and claiming its "just dice" when they are not. Also I wouldn't call someone foolish for buying it, but I would call out someone as disingenuous for claiming the product is "just dice". [/QUOTE]
