Done, done & done. Have to wait and see what happens now, just hope the bidder doesn't get burned.  :-\

For those who have not seen this aution, the seller is using the picture from our archive without permission so I would be careful on bidding it. eBay has been informed but like the last one (loose Logray), it had to go through eBay in Europe and they did squat!  ********!  >:(

RARE STAR WARS SANDTROOPER KUBRICK FROM EXHIBITION 04

Forgot to mention, the seller even copied our text for his auction!  >:(

Parco Sandtrooper

Well wadda ya know, eBay pulled it!  8)

I also got an e-mail from Customer Support.

I just got my 3 boxes of series 3 tonight and what did I find, but a Logray in the first box.  The second box had 3 hibernation sickness Han Solos.  I was so glad to find a Logray and not the Vinyl Cape Jawa.  I took a chance getting 3 boxes, but it was the last 3 they had at BigBadToystore.com and the best part is that they were 20% off.  $80 per box isn't too shabby  ;)

Ignore him Zach.  He has a "problem" with Ewoks.   :P

Many congrats!  I'm really quite surprised you found so many chases from the last few boxes from an e-tailer.

I was surprised as well, though I know I would have been dissappointed if I didn't get any chases out of those 3 boxes.  I don't see myself ordering cases in the future to get the chase figures, but it was fun to open all of those individual boxes last night.  It was just like opening a pack of cards back in the day.

Congrats on the finds!

Always a bonus to buy a box and find those little chase goodies inside!

I've allotted myself $300 to get series 5 complete.  Within the last two days, I got everyone except for the Blue Snag for $190 with shipping.  Not too shabby I think.  I usually prefer to get the complete set at once, but I wasn't finding too many sets on ebay, so I had to split this series up.  Won the regulars and chase Han from one person and just won the Walrusman chase last night.

Time to get cracking on that Blue Snag.
