Maybe he's shiping each one in it's own Global Priority Envelope, and taking a $1 loss to be a nice guy?

>>Someone please tell me how some sellers just don't understand that this doesnt belong in the "Games - Role Playing - Other" category.<<

Well, you COULD use one of those as a pad to sit on for gaming? Right?

Anyway, the model is hot, so no loss?

Interesting item. I wonder if it breast-feeds as an infant?

Now if there was a skid mark absorber, I'd have a pocket version handy.

If you hit a Rowsdower, you get to keep it.

Laughable?

LAMENTABLE, as usual.

Get familiar with Cougar's item ranking.

VG- : UNCUT PHOTOCOPIED COUNTERS ALL REALLY GOOD REALLY RARE

http://cgi.ebay.fr/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie ... %3AIT&rd=1

50 GBP.

Guess, VG + : home made counters on high quality paper?

Near Mint : some left sheets but fine hand-colored photocopied counters and maps. Very very rare. Pro-colored! Bargain.

For those of you who were unable to attend Gen Con 2005, here is something that may help you in your recovery:

You can actually buy someone elses pictures on CD.

Exactly what are you "wowing" about? The fact that someone would actually pay $10 for a cd full of someone else's Gen Con experiences, or "duct tape girl"? 8O

I think "duct tape girl" is supposed to be Leeloo from The Fifth Element. Could be wrong. If he was going to try and market it at least he could try and make it look like he was selling pictures of people dressed as famous sci-fi characters and not just a CD of girls you missed at the Con :lol:
