For that price, I'd want Sir Ian McKellern to deliver it.

I'd want Sir Ian McKellern to build them, paint them and play a couple of games with me for that price

At least there are five available for that price, wouldn't want the seller to price themselves out the market?

I'd want Sir Ian to lead them into battle for me and conquer half of China at that price.

Silly man, theyre OOP and Rare, that multiplies the original prioe by at least 1000.

Or so all the wallys on ebay seem to think.

Myself I think that its old tat, xhould be around 1/3 of original price.

If they would be worth just that, mine would already be long sold at half the amount  :o :o

They have to be typos, £12,457 for a kids party favour that is just going to get beaten to hell would make for one expensive kids party.... :-\

I don't suppose it's still there...But an audio book I bought from the local Saturday market for £3 (mint condition) was advertised on Amazon for around £240.
Supposedly a rarity, as it was no longer 'in production'.

A book I was looking for was on Amazon second hand for £59. Amazon didn't sell it new, because the publisher's sold direct - for £24...

Ahhh but how many people will directly check the publishers site, when they hit Amazon first, last and always...

If pedantry can give us preludes and fugues, and the systematic Biblical scholarship that helped Darwinism to start curing religion, give us more, Germania.
