If J Igoe drops out of the game for a while, prices will come down for sure.

Is it just me or are the gijoe ebay uk pages the only toy type where people think it will be a good idea to list non-gijoe toys.

Does this occur in the starwars/ MOTU pages?

If you take all the crap and buy it now auctions out the page count would go from about 30 to less than 10

Bit hard to tell from this end of the world. Ebay UK always seems like a treasure trove to me ;) Don't really get dodgy listings in Oz because there's stuff all of GI Joe let alone AF. Heaps of people listing Action Man when it's something like a spiderman figure mind you.

like a fella i work with who told me he had some action man that he was going to put on ebay, he asked me what he should list them as!! I told him to list them under train sets, he then asked if he did that would he get more money for them...... dumbass,

Im not being nasty but imagine if johnijoe73 (or whatever his name is) were to suddenly die? His girlfriend/boyfriend might put his shadow army on ebay which might drive the prices down a bit. Perhaps he could gain some friends that way?

if that did happen of course it would also drive the cost of little frilly knickers down to a minimum,

You can only imagine that listing! "387 Red Shadows for sale". I'd PM with a "would you accept a pound a figure?" offer as soon as it appeared! :twisted:

Didn't tintin sell to him? He must have his address. I saw we turn up at his house, kill him and divvy up the spoils.

You know, for the general good.

Just a guess. Didn't he tell Zakkfan he had more than 300 or something? Perhaps, just to please Andy, 347?

the number forty-seven occurs in nature with noticeably higher frequency than other natural numbers.
