I picked up the "custom" WM Starscream yesterday... But I was laid off from my job today!! Should I sell him or keep? There seem to be HUNDREDS of him on Ebay.... Advice? I know that plenty of you crazy bastards would LOVE to pick him up, but I'm afraid I won't see him again in ANY format, EVER!! Lemme know. BTW, I'm really drunk... .and I don't like Ebay in the least, but once you see him in package, it's hard to resist. He's in my trunk as we speak--ADVICE??

Sorry to hear that. If you are short on funds Im sure plenty of members would PM you to discuss a transaction outside of this website. There are plenty of TF sites out there that allow you to sell as well.

Dammit--sorry guys.. That reply didn't even post right... Anyway, I'm pretty drunk, but I want to maintain this hobby for as long as I can, but I'm having to move back in with my folks. Fun stuff. Anyway, my GF doesn't know that I have almost 30 Transformers lying around--if I sold them right now, I could probably pull a cool $500 down, but they're so cool!! Last night, I grabbed this MS Starscream--the LAST ONE off the shelf BTW--after arguing w/myself about how stupid it would be! ..So I say again--keep or sell??

Keep. You can probably find some temporary work within a week. SS, you may not see again, well not for this price.
Sorry about your job though. Thats always tough.

You will always be able to find another job and $500 doesnt go that far these days...you'll regret selling them. Now, unless you dont mind paying for a Takara version in the future, I would keep WM MP Starscream.

Tricky situation you are in. Something to think about though, all these bots can be bought again if you sell them.
Look at the big picture, do you need that $500 right now? would it help you get back on your feet? If so I say sell them.
Even though you said you dont care for ebay, it will be there when you are ready to collect again. I completely missed armada and energon at retail, but I have almost complete sets of the armada and energon lines, all bought this year, well after the were out of production.
Collecting is a hobby, life comes first.

Keep him.
Selling him (and the others) for 500 bucks will put a wad of cash in your hand right now, but it won't last long and in the end you'll still be out of money and something that you really enjoy.

Honestly, selling him won't help you enough to make it worth it. When I was laid off, I sold a bunch of stuff on ebay. It wasn't worth it now that I look back at it. I have no idea what a WM Starscream is. Okay, maybe I do, is it Wal-Mart SS? Then keep him. You'll pay a small fortune if you want to buy a replacement later.

Don't sell it.
Instead, sober up and try to get a job ASAP.....
Selling it wont make much of a difference.
