I'm off to my favorite Target today. Yesterday, they had no Alternators or $20 Cybertron figures on the shelf. If Alt Prime and Cybertron Soundwave are going to appear in March, now is better then ever.

nothing.



I turn the corner of the toy section only to have some stupid lady block the entire section with her cart. I couldn't get around ... I was standing there, she knew I wanted to get around ...looked at me, and still didn't f'ing move.

You give her one polite chance to move when you say "excuse me". If she don't move, politeness goes out the door. In those situations where the other person doesn't show basic courtesy, I'll move their cart out of my way.

It's even better when you have a cart of your own. Usually I'l just plow on through and if they look at me I'll just give them an "oops :squint:" and keep on moving.

I'm writing up the insecticon auction now. Quick question though ...

Shipping? US only, Priority Mail, tracking, insurance? What's the estimated cost for all of this?



I'm going to make a few versions of this auction, just pick your favorite. The one I'm working on now is as if I don't know much about these. Terms like "MISB", "C10", and "bubble" aren't used at all. The descriptions will be accurate, but not using any of the collector terms.

Priority mail shipping w/ delivery confirmation, US only.... $8 maybe? They're not very heavy.


What do we want the starting price to be? $399 w/ BIN of $699? :thinking:

I think the $399 is a good starting point.



How much is insurance though? I think it'd be in our best interest to get these covered up to $700. :hs:
