I was kidding about the 2 bucks. I never was a Power Ranger fan. However, that's actually not a bad profit on the link, if you can get that much.

OMG.... I had one of those. And the weapon set from the first series. And Saba, and all the zords up until they went in to space and the toys became crap.

Oh, good times. I remember having the turtles kick the PR's butts. Now that was fun .

I am fighting the urge to ask if you got any. Then again, I have this Teen Bible thing and it listed "10 RAndom Fun things to do on a date" and one of them was "Voulenteer at a soup kitchen."
Back on topic now, some times you can find some cool stuff at Good Will and Salvation Army, in fact 80% of things I own I have from Salvation Army or Good will.
Did she call you a nerd for buying a Power Ranger? If not, shes a keeper.
