I am not even joking here.

Over a week ago, I sat down at my computer with a beer.

My choices were: Browse Imgur (for the lulz) or browse EBAY, which I had not done in over a week.

My choice was a wise one. Three items down, there it was...Crouching Altair. Mint in box, unopened. The price...a retarded level of cheap. The SHIPPING was nearly the price of the figure!

I couldn't believe my eyes. A wave of heat passed over me, and I bought it.

But there were 3 available....?

How? Who is this person? I phoned my friend (who collects Creed with me. We are brothers under Creed), and I told him. He too could not believe it, and he too bought it. Third one sold within twenty minutes, and that was that.

All we could do was wait...hope it was real. Pray it was not a cruel joke.

It was not. The holy grail of Creed items arrived today, and it is unopened, and mint....and cost me $99.00 CAD.

Sounds like you, your friend, mags, and Meg all made out like bandits on cheap Crouching Altairs this week! Did you try contacting the seller to see their source?

Damn, nice find! I'd totally would have had my hands on it, too and would have prayed for it to be real, haha

But yeah Knight, Meg and Mags got them also?

No intro thread yet, but I really am planning on making one. ...

I've only been on here for 3 years or so. ...
