I am avoiding asking you to hold items partly for that reason. I do not want you to be waiting on me to get money together.

This is precisely the problem I am having as well. And that's not a knock against you or anything, ShockTrek--AM Thundy is easily worth $100 on the markets, and I wouldn't dream of asking you to lower the price on him or many of the others. I just can't justify throwing $100 at a Deluxe sized toy, garish colours or no. (And I suppose this is part of what keeps me from falling off the wagon, so to speak. Sorry if I keep bringing this up, I'm just kind of reevaluating my own position and all.)

Might you consider making a post on alt.toys.transformers? There's a handful of other people there who I'm sure would be glad to take off at least a few of those guys off your hands.

I also have a thread over at tfw which so far is yielding pretty decent results. I may wind up putting some of this on ebay. My other large concern is what to do with some of my playsets. I have a complete TNG Bridge set, a fairly decent condition Cobra Terrordrome and several MOTU sets that are all fairly large and while in decent shape and potentially worth a fair amount of money would be cost prohibitive to ship. I think I'm going to try to sell them back to the store I bought some of them from, probably won't get as much as I could for them, but it would be cash in hand now and I wouldn't have to ship them.

And I wouldn't want any of you guys to go into financial ruin for this shit like I did. 2 wrongs don't make a right.

Ask 86's girlfriend about that TNG Bridge. She's a Trekkie nerd, apparently, so she might be interested?

Truth be told, I have the same problem with books.

I still say you and I combine shipping, unless it would (somehow) be 'less' expensive to ship both seperately.

Fine by me, you already paid Shock for your stuff, right, you just haven't had him ship it yet, right? If I pay for this tomorrow, I'm fine w/ him shipping it, either to my place or yours, it's up to you.

Yeah, I'm just waffling on the trains because of my car situation; should have it worked out by the end of the weekend at best.
