True, but Dragoon MS was also used and loved by many, so the amount left in circulation was greatly decreased from the original number produced. Shining God was of course also used by many, but those who had it didn't have to worry about part wear unlike the Dragoons.
Regardless, it's still a regular Beyblade. I mean, it wasn't crafted with precious metals or something along those lines, 180 USD for that means over 1500% profit from the original price. Great for the seller, but that's pushing it just a bit. It didn't even end at 17500, it went up by 10000 more even! 280 dollars is insanity.
"In many ways, the work of a critic is easy. We risk very little, yet enjoy a position over those who offer up their work and their selves to our judgment. We thrive on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read. But the bitter truth we critics must face, is that in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of junk is probably more meaningful than our criticism designating it so. But there are times when a critic truly risks something, and that is in the discovery and defense of the new. The world is often unkind to new talent, new creations. The new needs friends. Last night, I experienced something new: an extraordinary meal from a singularly unexpected source. To say that both the meal and its maker have challenged my preconceptions about fine cooking is a gross understatement. They have rocked me to my core. In the past, I have made no secret of my disdain for Chef Gusteau's famous motto, "Anyone can cook." But I realize, only now do I truly understand what he meant. Not everyone can become a great artist; but a great artist can come from anywhere."
-Anton Ego/Peter O'Toole (1932-2013)
