Do We Own The Masks Or Do The Masks Own Us?

This post is a perfect example:<a href=\"http://forums.NIGHTOWLpro.com/index.php?showtopic=25988&st=0\" target=\"_blank\">http://forums.NIGHTOWLpro.com/index.php?sh...=25988&st=0</a>Do you own a high end or rare mask? If so do you feel compelled to sell it, sometimes at a price cut, to someone else within our mask collecting community? Or are you fine just selling it to an anonymous highest bidder on ebay.Do you think about what your peers may think of you if you ever thought of altering your collectible mask?Is it just a concern of resale value or is it something bigger? Are we the owners of these masks? or just the keepers? My personal story is as follows:I finally was able to get my Dog Will Hunt choptop bust that I had been chasing for months. I had it already set in my mind that when I got one I would get it signed by Bill Moseley. But when the time came I could hardly bring myself to do it. I almost felt like "Who am I to decide to have this signed." Sure I paid for it straight up. No court in the land could ever say I didn't own it and have right to do what ever I wanted with it. But for some strange reason it was like it was on loan to me.Long story short I got it signed by Bill Mosley and Tom Savini, and to me makes it the rarest of the DWH bust, but I'm sure no one else would agree.Thoughts?
