It's hard to support a FLGS when you don't even make enough money to buy your own house and you still have to pay rent and live with roommates. I don't kid myself...a FLGS owner doesn't care about our financial situation so why should I care about theirs; he's looking out for him & his store. I don't blame him, but it's not cool for people to critisize others for looking out for themselves too. I can't make an effort to support a guy who will give a child $3 for his collectible and then resell it in his shop for $15-$20.If I was well off and living in my own home, sure I'd give the FLGS my business if the owner was a decent guy...but until then, I have to support myself first.It reminds me of the time I bought my new car at the dealers and while haggling over the price the salesman said, "Come on man, I need to make some money off this car, I have a family to feed". I have a family to feed also and to top that off I had to buy a new car cause the old one died on me. I think my family would care more about me saving some of the money we weren't expecting to spend on a car & get a good deal rather than supporting this salesman who's trying to rip people off anyway.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
