Do what! I've heard of the 1/18 F-14 Tomcat (which has a box the size of a suitcase) going for $2000.00 where is this being mailed from-Fantasy Island?
It's a madness Steve! I wouldn't give 2k even, for ANY modern stuff, but then I don't! Like I don't shell-out 500 for resin tanks or 15/30-quid per figure for this plastic new production from Russia or 'Ukraine'! We are in the end of days when there's too much disposable wealth among the 'lower classes' he says pompously, but with a point behind the dig. The action-figure guys now pay-out more for repro-Mego's than for vintage . . . I just don't get it. You can get a good MPC Fireball XL5 set for less than 2k if you wait!
And if you check his listings, this is not the higher-end, several others were another grand or two!
I guess since there's no listing fee it doesn't hurt to set the price ridiculously high.
