Don't get greedy. I'm trying to help here. Let's see if he goes for it, first.

Hey, hey, hey, I'm not as dumb as I look. Lol

Rats! I was counting on that!

So,  I wonder who bought the briefly listed Creature game?  Rare piece,  complete,  but so-so box.

This one that sold for $2500?

Hep,  Yes.  I wonder if it sold for the initial asking price, or, if an offer was considered and taken.  Whatever the price, it sure didn't last long!

Hep,  I stand corrected,  the initial asking price of 2500 is indeed what it showed that it sold for.  Wow.  I remember going to my first toy show in Allentown and being yelled at and scolded by a few dealers there for paying a dealer 400 dollars for a dead mint sealed Aurora Addams Family house kit, stating that I've helped create a "false" market for these type of things!  That was over 30 years ago.  I guess to those dealers then, that was an insane price to pay.  So, I ask, who's laughing now?
