Wankers complaining about prices on Discogs

Is anyone else as tired of them as i am?
It seems that every god damn release these days has either one or a bunch of those fvckers complaining about prices on records they've missed out on because they were too busy wanking or downloading David Guetta's greatest hits.

Well, i agree about timeless releases but..if something more-or-less-nice goes around 2quids till the day before someone plays it (maybe you even have it in wantlist or cart since months) and then flies to 30.. i'd complain a bit tbh. true story.
now slap me if you want

What's the point, though?
Discogs doesn't care.
Artists/labels have no influence on Discogs prices either... In most cases anyway, especially if a record's old.
And the sellers don't give a flying fvck about your whinging.
So you're just being an annoying little prick.

In fact, i believe that people complaining about the prices actually drives the prices up.

sabotaged self-fulled prophecies.

I'm sure there's a lot of truth in that.

Actually nobody cares about the complain, and i didn't mean complain to someone..just feeling myself annoyed of smth that maybe couldn't happen (but you know, you cant buy immediately EVERY record you come across), thats all.

Everyone in this world wants to make money somehow, and for some people record market is becoming a nice business. And maybe it happens like "oh, no samples of this record online..price is 25€..maybe zip played, must be bomb! *click* " .. there can be hundred reasons to make that happen.. but only who buys overpriced records increases the trend.

It's indeed tiresome to see every other record page littered with comments like REPRESS PLZZZ/FCK THE GREEDY SELLERS. I used to complain about it when i started using Discogs. After a while you just start to care less and just continue to look for other good and less hyped records.

You are not a wanker though if you are angry that you have to pay 80Euro's for a 5 Euro record because Occidental (example) discovered he had the last one online. You can't buy every you come across immediately. Discogs is a blessing and a curse.
