US-ONLY auction, which is why I'm not jealously bidding and praying nobody else notices it :lol:

But, I wanted to make sure you folks saw it, since I doubt another shot like this will show up again soon.

Take a close look at the zoom-in of the boxed sets

It is an Isoldit auction though! Hopefully it is packed better than the picture indicates.

Get auction for the winner though.

They look like they are shop shrink wrapped. I doubt they are original shrinks.

This week I've been mostly eating . . . minestrone soup.

But the edges are very well-shaped. So it's either original shrinkwrap, or they were kept very carefully and probably never used.

Could be, yeah. But heck, even if they're not original shrink, those boxes are in fantastic shape

well it will be a bold person who deals with them! but potentially worth the gamble if you are a US chap or chappette

dread to think what the shipping will calculate to!!

I think the shipping calculator is screwed up on this one. It's claiming I can get FedEx service for $26 ... and we know that can't possibly be correct. I'm confoozled ...

Hmm, Fedex to me (in New York) is about $46. You're pretty close to them, Xaxaxe . . . maybe it's correct?

I've actually dealt with half a dozen Isoldit's - all transactions have went well - the items were packaged EXTREMELY WELL (these guys are super-bubblewrapping everything) and while shipping was high, I never felt it completely unreasonable.

All those boxes for $26? I don't know ... I don't offer FedEx myself for any of my auctions, so maybe I'm ill-informed. It just seems like a bargain price; not at all what I expect from an iSoldIt.

And if this franchise can do all that weight for $26, how come the one in Washington is charging me $16 for one Silver Anniversary boxed set?

But I'll bow to others' FedEx knowledge. Again, it's not my bailiwick.
