 INSANE cobra commander zombie price
i dont know if anyone has seen it, but it had me laughing. on some auction site, there is a "super 7 gi joe cobra commander" for an insane price. ill let you look for yourself. some of the auction description: "Super 7 Does Not Release The Number Of Figures Manufactured. " "When I Contacted Super 7 They Told Me Only A Small Box Of These Were Produced and Distributed Worldwide." and my favorites "ONE OF THE RAREST MODERN DAY G I JOE ITEMS IN EXISTANCE" "To The Best Of My Knowledge This Is The Only One In The World. "

 Re: INSANE cobra commander zombie price
.....wtf? That dude is on something serious, cause that price is definitely fuckin' insane. Don't get me wrong, I love the Cobra Hood Zombie as much as the next guy, but come on. Can somebody also school me on this AFA Untouched/Uncirculated stuff he's talkin' about.
Dude must be trying to bank on the popularity of the movie.

I'm hopeful my paypal account will be fat come tomorrow morning.

 Re: INSANE cobra commander zombie price
It's a good thing I have one of these guys, it's like money in the bank! Mine only has the standard bag/header card, probably some fingerprints & dust. So I will entertain offers above $2000. with FREE shipping!!!

I wouldn't send them a damned thing in fear they'd fuck it up somehow. Who has the balls to send in and grade a HP Bemon? DO IT!

 Re: INSANE cobra commander zombie price
his response to me:
100% serious and its no joke. The last one of these sold on eBay for $165 loose and that was about a year ago. This is the only AFA U95 in existence and with G I Joe movies coming out I thought I would test the waters (just a business experiment). This is an authentic AFA Graded collectible and eBay does not have a problem with the listing. Its nothing more than freedom of enterprise and it does have the best offer option. I do understand your concern with the price, but again it is the only AFA U95 in the world. I'm not out to rip people off, but I'm out to cater to savvy collectors and try to make $$$ along the way. After all, its any persons choice to either buy it or not buy it. Thanks for bring your concern to my attention, I'm a reasonable businessman and will rethink the overall advertised price. Thanks Again
