Thought this was a sharing, caring community!

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.

Sure here ya go! Only have front picture sorry. Should be good enough. It's VERY VERY Mint as well, thanks to thesirren's hard work finding a mint copy. Even the seal is near flawless. This could easily be graded in the high 90's by VGA.

What, my picture isn't good enough? Fine then. Pfft.



There is nothing special about the back by the way...



All in good fun, I'm just jokin' around. Truth is I was too lazy to take a picture of the back that day...

[gu8]

your picture is very nice mate, i too got mine from the sirren so no complaints, i traded it

WWF-logo pictures are from my listings, since I'm donating part of the money I get from sales.

thanks guys, was expecting it to look different kinda in the same style as the ME2 and 3 ones, pretty neat nonetheless
