About to close up SHOP...

Many of you expressed interest in items from this thread and this thread.

Some folks started negotiations but then disappeared.... I have to get ready to move far far away.... please get your last messages/requests in now.
Unless we have a deal almost sealed -- I am going to stop dealing with TMNT negotiations after Wednesday.

I am legit. I have 2 +1's in the feedback thread. Some stuff even sent before payment.
Let's run some final deals.
REAL CHEAP STUFF!!!

Cels.
Foot soldier army.
BIG LIST.
More.
Let's get these out of a future of basement storage and into your hands.

Sorry I couldn't help more, but I'm not into toy-collecting. I seem to remember someone talking about making a TMNT museum before. You might want to look them up. Maybe they'll buy you out in one fell swoop. ^_^

You wanted way to much for what of yours I did want so I wouldn't call it that cheap. I'd use Ebay as a price guide cause your stuff isn't going for as much as you think it's worth.

I was never inflexible. Unless you used other names - you asked for only one thing - and it probably could have been yours for pretty much whatever you asked but you stopped talking to me. It's totally never going to become an agreement or deal if you don't negotiate/communicate.

I have had a number of successful and happy negotiations here. People ask a price or offer a price or I do and we haggle it out.

CHEAP now means something like "CLOSEOUT SALE" - that means I'm even more flexible now than I was before.

I just looked at my last message to you...
There is absolutely nothing inflexible in it.

Well as spitfire mentioned he does overcharge and he hardly gives any "deals" as he says. You didn't miss out on much.

He did have alot of good stuff, some pretty valuable that he probably paid a good bit for. There were some things I was interested in, but I really hate the "make me an offer" stance as it can take so much time to negotiate. I would have perfered prices posted and then work from there. Oh well.

I'm pretty sure he didn't sell it all because he got a couple things out of "storage" for me right before he left. I didn't think he over charged but I do think he started high and expected to be negotiated with. After negotiating with him for awhile I feel I got a pretty good deal on what I bought from him.

Yeah. I felt that way, too. He was under an unbelievable amount of stress near the end and he deserved the right to haggle and bargain with everyone. I claim first dibs on whatever he has left when he comes back *evil grin*

I paid a total of $410 for all the stuff I got from him.

Yea I was wondering the same thing....the most i've ever spent on 1 shot of turtle goodies was $500 even. That was for every Giant figure-all giant mutations, movie figs, trolls, slam dunkin don, everything (about $25 each)...i thought it was a pretty good deal, esp for the trolls and dunkin don...

You might have noticed I bought something from you on e-bay...I was the guy who asked you how long it would be before you shipped it-- you are vaughanmichael, right?

Here's what I got from rootbier for my $410:

Toon Cycle with Toon Raph
1988 Retromutagen Ooze
1989 Foot Ooze
Muckman and Joe Eyeball
Mutagen Man x 3 (one was yellowed, but he told me in advance and I still wanted it)
Napoleon Bonafrog x 2 (both first variant)
Hose 'em Down Don
Toon Kala
Toon Irma
Star Trek Raphael
Mutatin' Tokka
Mutatin' Rahzar
Mutatin' April
Movie III Turtlepult with Whit
Movie III Warhorse with Castle Guard

That's everything I can remember off the top of my head. I'll be writing some toy reviews soon.

Looking back, I forgot to mention Ace Duck. I also got an Ace Duck on the original card from Rootbier.
