I don't know if you guys know, but Taki made the auction very high so he can lower the price later for the item he wants to place. Thats my guess. Ebay sometimes has different promotions, and the promo was: Anything listed during that day will only cost $.50 Insertion fee per auction. In theory if Taki listed the auction low then changed it to a higher price then he would have to pay higher fees. But, since he listed the price very high, he now has the power to lower the price to any amount without paying more fees. I don't know if it was a US only promotion. But, the promotion definitely hooked me as I listed tons of items for sale: cgi6.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewSellersOtherItems&userid=nintendognw&include=0&since=-1&sort=3&rows=50-Matt

Hey Pieter, Who is the buyer of this super find? Sarge? No! Rosemary, the telephone operator? No! Devster, the mild-mannered G&W collector? Could Be!!! That would be such a surprise to me!! ;D Don't tell me YOU bought it! Regards, sAner

Mattijs, You are very correct, you must have had insider information! This item will not be listed. It will however be appearing in my collection thread very shortly, as long it doesn't fall out of a plane or get crushed by a truck!!! The item is a Boxed Mego Flagman Coming Soon........ Enjoy. p.s Best Quote on this thread goes to Jon'withthewind' That makes it "pull your eyes out" rare (whatever that means )

I think it would have gone for more than that on ebay.
