I'm always baffled why anyone would sell their Dragon Boxes.

You think, Sherlock? No i mean are people that strapped for cash that the only thing they can think of to sell is such rare items? Given that this is a DB forum I'd think they love the series and since there are no other ways to watch the series in its proper aspect ratio, getting rid of the DBoxes feels shortsighted. Granted, I don't know these people's financial position.

Not only are you incredibly rude, but you're assuming an awful lot about folks' financial situations when you know absolutely zilch about them.

Knock it off.

If I had Dragon Boxes, I would get rid of them in a heartbeat as soon as I had Kai instead.
So really, there's more than one reason people can be willing to sell ANYTHING Dragon Ball-related. Simple preferences is one of those.

I made it clear that I don't know their positions.

You're still incredibly rude and still better off keeping said commentary to yourself. Spare the dude your nosiness.

That all being said, this is better suited for the all-purpose sale/trade thread. We do not encourage individually-posted sales here within our community so as to make it clear that Kanzenshuu has no role in them.

Still, doubting whether people do love Dragon Ball because they want to sell the Dragon Boxes for whatever reason seems pretty rude to me. What's more, do you realise that there are actually people who don't care that much about the aspect ratio, at least not up to the point of worshipping the Dragon Boxes as if they were sacred?

Even without taking finances into account, if they prefer watching the series by other means (take the Blu Rays, for example) or just don't want the Dragon Boxes anymore (imagine that they prefer Faulconer's soundtrack, which is something the Boxes lack), that doesn't mean that they don't love the series or anything.
