Are you still referring to the deal with thesirren? Man, if he said he had to pay 80$ for each one, why doubt him? He explained at length (and others confirmed it) that all the Russian sites that had those ME 1 steels for sale, in fact either a) did not or b) if they did, they were likely damaged and not well cared for. I've been dealing with Sirren now for many months and he's been one of the most trustworthy, helpful and dependable members here. I didn't mind giving him some extra money up from the 80 he paid, because he had to work very hard to find those mint* copies. He traveled long distances and called tons of local shops. He shipped me a PERFECTLY mint ME 1 Russian steelbook, sealed. I was extremely happy. I know most US collectors are not going to have this, let alone even know it exists.
This is THE most sharing and caring community I have EVER been part of. I have been astonished by the generosity, kindness and help everyone here has freely given to others, even new, inexperienced members.
