I don't know but there is some really neat old advertisements the seller posted out of the book.

Well I probably just paid to much for a first print G1, but it had no rust and damn it, I'm tired of being out bid to complete my set!!

Congratulations!!

Also, plenty of G1s have staple rust, good luck on finding one  :D
Also, also *everyone* here pays more than the average ebay price for an item they really want. Congrats!  :)

Done that on a few occasions, usually to get that last item for a series or set and you seem to always lose out, so just pay 10-20% over and get it done with LOL. :)

Not sure this is silly, but it sure is unique.

EBAY SALES LESSON #1: threats from a seller are ALWAYS the best way to make a sale happen!

I'm a collector, and sometimes I come across extra items I'm willing to part with. I paid for this set: and if you want it, you will have to pay for it.

My first thought was "typo?" But then I read... "To buy this whole set from Amazon at the lowest prices and in the worst condition available would cost $2968.01."  Good luck with that!

Overpriced?  Yes...

Maybe this is an $800 lot (to a collector...).
