[Wshakspear]

fine, 14.99 for all three on clearance

BTW, i dont actually need/want the figure. We sold him for $1 since they never sold otherwise :)

[scsg75]

on a side note, when I went back home a couple years ago, I bought a star wars action figure in the city I was visiting. It was a Luke with Bacta tank. Well, the bacta tank I guess sort of looked like a pipe bomb or something, and I barely got pass airport security. It was still sealed, but the security guy examined it for a good 5 minutes, called over a couple supervisors to examine it, and finally told me he has no idea what it is, but he'll let me keep it and go through.

Yaa mustang,


(side note..I find it pretty cool with this new tradition of recent 1kers celebrating by giving something away! I'm almost there..should start thinking of a prize)

[AlbinoNinja]

No idea about the price ($49.99?) but I do have a pretty shocking airport security story.

My uncle works for the colgate toothpaste company and he was on a business trip to collect samples of a new toothpaste. When he was going to the airport, he reilized that the toothpaste was located in metal tubes which looked very similar to bombs. He decided to keep the toothpaste as carry-on luggage, hoping that he could explain himself. While in line for baggage checking, the tubes went by the x-rays no problem!

[Skylander7]

I'm guessing $23.97.. but I think this is a great way to give back to the community, you know? Some people brag as if they've reached an upper echelon of cyber society when they hit 1,000.. this guy has a contest to give something away. Congrats

congrats to fireball343 with his winning guess of 10 dolllars and the tiebreaker of 2.49

He was exactly right on the price of all three together, and was the closest to the tiebreaker, which was the price of the one figure I am giving away. (1.50)

Thanks to everyone for playing!
