Same goes for you as I've often said to Damed and recently to Morgadee.... Just LMK when you 'need' to sell them.... and I'll back the van up to your door. :-)

Mike

Mike, I think by then you'll need a bigger van.  :shock:


Amen to that. So I just got back from seeing Mike's big haul and the pictures Mike took are totally deceiving. What the pictures don't show is there is more than 1 of items in the store. Like the Conquest jet. I just bought one (thanks Mike  :thumbsup: ) and he pulls it down, there's another behind it. Everyone in the local area needs to pay Mike a visit pronto and make sure you bring more than $25.00  :shifty:
That and a big thanks to Pete for grabbing the BAT APC for me and leaving it with Mike, now nobody tell my wife I was there today.

Hey Mike, looks like I might have a service call on Thursday in Hamilton so assuming it goes well I'll most likely be popping in. So how much for the conquest x 30? That and I need to pay you for the APC your holding for me.

Hmmm, I think I need to sell some blood.

Yah, your probably right. Still, in all honestly if I can get some extra cash together to go towards the cost of my airline tickets to florida this year, what the heck I say.
BTW, best deal I found for airline tickets was $450.00 after taxes, so $900.00 for my wife and I. Just incase anyone else has been shopping around for airline tickets, I think Loop was looking before.

Everywhere I go I'm Morgardee. Pretty confident I'll never see that name anywhere else since I made it up. Short for Chef Morgardee from when I was in a punk band called Pablum. It's Chef Boyardee and Morgue mixed together.
If you guys ever see anywhere else let me know.

Alright, I'll admit it. I wanted to see how much this would go for so I posted an ebay auction:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 3180653534

I've got some other stuff up right now that I've had in the attic but honestly nothing rare. Maybe I'll get some spending money for the convention or even better, help pay for the air line tickets.  :shifty:

I think the clock on this server is running fast. I noticed this when I saw posts that were left on March 9th, when today is March 8th, unless you guys have a time machine and if that's the case, who's all in this years Dreadnok line up?  :D

Zoinks. Makes me wonder what I would get for my Cobra Commander from China that's on a pretty decent card. I know it's not worth even one tenth of that sucker, but if someone offered me one tenth I'd sell it.
I have a convention to save up for and all.  :shifty:

I just ran an ebay auction on a set of those. Starting bid was $9.99, ending bid was $9.99. I had one bidder. I didn't see the harm in putting them up as long as I started the bid at a fair price and basically a buck a figure seems fair. Mind you I paid a buck Canadain per figure and got a buck a figure in U.S. funds.
Basicly I'm gonna sell things off as I find them around the house for the U.S. funds for florida this summer.  :thumbsup:

I've got nothing MOC and like it that way.   :)

The thing that gets me, is that people still actually have these toys that are unopened from 20 years ago.  How the hell does that happen??


Uh, maybe I can help a bit with that. About 10 years ago when I worked at a comic store I came across another store that had bought inventory from another failed business. The had a bunch toys like Rambo, Silver Hawks, Transformers and G.I.Joe.
At this point I wasn't a die hard collector of G.I.Joe. I had been collecting since 82, but I wouldn't freak out over the Joes. I collected everything, but nothing die hard. Anyhow, this store had a bunch of Tomax Xamot packs, I bought 5, a lowlight figure and a Zandar figure. I sold the Zandar figure at the comic shop I worked at and I think I kept the Lowlight. The Tomax and Xamot I've trade, sold and gave away one but still have 1 set MOC on my way.
They also had a terror dome MIB which I passed on (still kicking myself) and a Mauler MIB, which is still part of my collection as well as a bunch of other stuff.
There is a sad ending to this story, my first room mate I told about the store. I didn't realize at the time what an A$$ he was, I gave him one of the Tomax Xamot sets and told him where I got them from. He went to the store and cleared them out of everything cool including all those MIB Galvatron figures. Nothing left for me.
Anyhow, that's how I've got older figures still MIB and MOC that did not come from ebay. I only started collecting moc during the Battle Corps area.
