Apologies in advance

Usually when I put money directly in a commodity or stock it goes down in value... I just ordered through my ad a blnr. I hope this doesn't bring down the value of yours lol...

The preowned value of the blnr will likely settle with time to something around 7000-7500USD. Similar to the hulk. I dont understand your post but congrats.

I bought a slightly used BLNR here in the Philippines for 355,000.00 Pesos, roughly equal 7,435$. Anyway, the person that I bought the BLNR from bought another BLNR for himself after a month. According to him, he regretted selling the the BLNR as he missed it so much so he decided to buy one again.

The BNIB one sold in the US gray market now should be still a few houndreds dollars lower than MSRP at most. In Taiwan, the price of the BLNR is still stiff and the BNIB one is only around US$200 lower than MSRP in the local gray market.

Yeah, when I buy a stock it's a good sell indicator. Auto investments are made to my kids 529 accounts on the 1st and 15th of each month. Pretty reliable the market is up big on the day purchases are made and down big the next day.

Well maybe I should buy a BLNR when your purchase makes the price drop.

You could think of it this way... By you purchasing the BLRN you are inceasing demand. Because there is now one less on the market, supply is down. When Demand is up and supply is down - prices go up! So you did everyone a favor. Yeah this is 100% accurate NOT!
