Now we are expressing disapproval of what peoples motivations are to sell parts, got it.

Lol yes we are expressing disapproval of intentions. That was in the first post, so welcome to the thread.
And yes, suffering. The fact that you think more brokers here to rip off young kids is a good thing is probably the root of our disagreement.
The fact you think cheaper replica products phasing out the real stuff is a good thing is also completely opposite of how I feel.

You’re looking at the market from a greedy sellers point of view. Yes of course it seems to be “thriving”. Lots of idiots easily tricked into overpaying due to peer judgement on the internet.
From a consumer stand point, everything being more expensive and/or replaced with replicas due to kids wanting to join the cool club is a slow death, not a thriving revival.
