Good Lord!  I was just searching eBay for "Carded Kubricks" and 3 auctions popped up (all Star Wars of course).  I saw an $81.99 BIN on one of them and started rushing through to place my bid, and finally get me the R2 and save some coin over you dorks in the process...

When all of the sudden I fortunately realized that I was one click away from purchasing another carded Luke.   :-[  Duh.

Phew!  That was a close one!  Remind me, when do the other 1,504 of these go on sale to the Japanese public?

Easy Adam. Both the R2's are up tp  $150. plus.
The seller which we 3 got ours from , "andythong" put 2 more on for a Bin of $96.88.

There is a buyer that Bin'd both of them, "g_b_u" & he has a bid on the one you are going for plus another.

They are coming out of the wood work & are starting to go for more coin.

This one I saw posted is a Bin of $168.88 .  :o

I'm sure that andythong will put more on but when is the key. $96.88 is alot better than $150. plus. IMHO.

If any of you guys see another R2 with a BIN under $100, snag it for me. I will gladly and quickly pay you for it...

Dorks?

Dale, don't grab Luke or Ackh-Med, they were still behind the scooby snacks ;D so I have them for you.  Cards are very nice condition.

No word yet back from Andy, but I'm patient.

The R2 is popping up on eBay for openers of $169.99 & Bins of $199.99. Maybe hard to get one under $100.  :-\

Good luck Adam.

On a good note I think I may have scored a carded Luke for $53.00 tonight.  Will know for sure when I have an email returned.   :)

It's confirmed.    ;D  I'm a Droids R2 away from being caught up.  I'm skipping the carded and chase Fett's for obvious reasons.

Not a bad price for a carded Luke I must say!  8)

The carded R2 that ended late last night went for $204.50.  :o
