I've I have been seeing this lately.. on ebay for a while but, I like some gets some thoughts on this...
Thats right people resaling customs, whats the point in buying the custom in first place If going to resale them? personally I see no point.

yeah, that's mine. I contacted the seller. He was really excited to order it, and wanted it quick (which I came through on somehow) This was completed only about 2 months ago. I asked why he's selling it, he said he's getting engaged, and needs to save up for a ring ;)
It's possible someone might grab resells like this at the last minute of the auction. I personally, never saw the point in starting an auction at high prices. IMO, scares bidders off.

I'm all for the ring and all the saving-up and reselling because of priorities. no problem with that, we all understand that.
but if they're reselling because they just want to get rid of their collection, got bored, or just don't want it anymore, then i'd be a bit disheartened.
anyway, it's theirs already when they bought it.
If i were going to sell my collections, the customs would go last...for like, really really last.

When I see my customs go back on ebay, I really hope that the seller makes a small profit for it. Some do, but most usually lost 20-30% of its value :(
