Mars wrote:I am cheap too and paid about $500 for a near complete set (complete up until around issue 320 or so).A huge lot generally gets a discount because it really doesn't appeal to too many people (especially the shipping) - also shipping from Australia would deter a large portion of the audience. I would suspect the lot would have done a lot better in the US.

I checked each issue to make sure everything was complete. Two of them had the mailing covers, still. One issue has some issues with the cover, but I'll live with it, for now. lol Maybe I'll get a replacement, eventually. Thanks again for all of your advice and help, all! ~Kat ^_^
