Having purchased a Santa during the first drop (maybe a month ago?) I can say I have currently lost about 15-16m on it. But I have realized that I am fine with that. I always wanted a Santa, so I got it. I just got overzealous and bought it when it was inevitably going to drop some more.
So my advice, I suppose, is:
1. If you want the rare for having a rare and keeping (and can afford it, dont mind spending the money, and are not afraid of any potential loss) then go for it.
2. If you are looking to hold it for a short time, I would not recommend it. Such as if you want to merch it, don't ask me haha. I'm in no position to give advice there.
But basically, if you want to keep the rare for a long time, it should turn into a long-term investment (rares have to go up eventually... right?). Then the only issue should be parting with the money. Sorry if this made no sense haha.
