I know I have had to buy whole figures for parts in the past. Once I was done with what I needed; I would split up the rest and sell to others who needed parts. It was a win/win for me as I ended up getting the money back in parts that I paid for the whole figure. I really don't see an issue with it. The demand is there and as long as bidders are willing to pay premiums for it; the practice will continue.

I have this up right now (yeah, shameless self promotion, hehe).
If I can make some cash, awesome. But really, I hate throwing anything away and creating landfill out of vintage stuff and I have a horder mentality thinking there is somebody out there that can find something like that useful.
I have a love/hate relationship with the selling of accessories and body parts. I love when I can sell something that fits into a tiny bubble mailer for $10 or more, but I HATE when I need something like that and it's over $10.
