Then a much clearer and less charged way to express what I think you meant
to say might be:
I find the prices for things on Brickbay to be higher than what I'm willing
to pay.

I think you might want to find other uses of the term "highway robbery" and
consider its use and apparent meaning. I'd have to say that I interpreted
your words correctly - "highway robbery" isn't something one normally sees
in anything other than a "man, they're practically stealing from people"
kind of way.
Glad you cleared it up, though. There are plenty of good deals (and honest
sellers) to be found at Brickbay. Market forces kinda dictate that to a
certain degree.

Ok, I did a little misinterpretation there - sorry. Given the "highway
robbery" item and the conotation it carries, I'm sure you understand.

As they are for me, truth be told. I would never pay 18 cents for a Tan 1x1
tile. I'd just buy 10 copies of the Snowspeeder set, keep the tiles, and
sell the rest.
Nothing wrong with not wanting to spend a lot on things - and at the same
time selling things at or near what the market allows isn't a bad thing. :)
Peace.
