Got 8-12k laying about, then? Creechie needs a home.

These creatures require a lot of upkeep.

I've heard that the "female" Creature is high maintenance.

[Mike Scott]

I "only" have $2,000 trade and $500 cash into my carded male creetch, but I've had him for 21 years.

I thought "surely not that much way back then", until I realized that was 1993!

We are way older than we think. I get on here and it feels like I'm hanging out with a bunch of twelve year olds. 

And I mean that in a good way. 

[Mike Scott]

We are way older than we think.

But not as old as I feel!

 Well, it looks like seller ended it but received zero bids.

Did time just run out on the old listing? It's been relisted.

 Yeah, I'm pretty sure time ran out. I wonder if he would actually sell it at the MB price.

As it should be. I know rich guys have childhood memories but it's only a piece of fricken plastic on a card. If I had that kind of cash I'd re-do my house or put it in an IRA for the future. Get real. The Most I have ever paid for a piece in my collection was $419 shipped for a Pat Magee Studios Possessed Peggy full sized prop. Worth it. Thousands for an old action/monster figure regardless of how scarce.



Yeah I'm a dick and don't really care.

[Mike Scott]

One way to find out!

[Mord]

One way to find out!

Don't tempt me, I do have the money. I just don't want Wicked Lester to mock me.

[Wicked Lester]

Looks like after 3 relists and no chumps this guy is eating his $$. Try an IRA for the long haul. Stupid piece of plastic on a crappy card.
You got THAT much $ to spend on this stuff ,try giving some of it to charity. I used to.

Couldn't you get a really nice life-sized creature for less?

[Wicked Lester]

YES you can.

I'm with you, Lester. But such "blasphemy"* here has been known to provoke considerable vitriol.

Best,

Yeah, but it wouldn't have that vintage "charm". Just joking, I would much rather have that life-size Creature in my shower.
