The last box I need to finish what I’m going to be able to do. No Spiker box unfortunately and have accepted that to be the case. Carts are 100% complete and this is the last needed to complete the run minus spiker box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youll break down and eventually get the Spiker box (maybe youll find a deal in a Lot?). It will eat at you, and eat at you... like an itch you cant scratch.

Oh, it has for some time, but unless I get a lucky find (which isn’t impossible, I’ve had some incredibly lucky pickups) I’m not paying going rate to get one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that is called a "Golden" collection by the Brotherhood's standards. Still an amazing accomplishment. 5 hours ago, Psycho Stormtrooper- Rog said: No worries. Your a collector Bill.

vtadave Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 I was willing to go $300. Of course I'm still 13 away, so if I were one away, I would go higher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vtadave Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 $400 for Congo Bongo and the box is a replica. Not sure how long it's going to take me to go 125/125.

I figured it would hit 300-320 range.. just because we havent seen one complete in a while. Didnt think it would reach 350, but it is a nice copy. I hope you get it soon Bill. Dont lose hope.

I would think it should have been topped at 150-200? .. and yes, his prices are high.. but not a bad idea to keep them on Ebay for a while until someone makes a descent offer. Just a selling tactic. Im sure he knows it wont sell for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not. Once I get around to going through my Inty extras, I have better things than that that should allow me to work a trade somewhere.
