Lots of retailers would have the opposite reaction if this was their exclusive; perhaps others see it as a badge of honour. I don't think it'd weird, here's why: -Bidder bid a crazy fucking price in the first place -Seller knew others went for more said "fuck it, shill this!" OR another buyer said "Man, I'll pay more because other's have went for so much more I'm stupid!" -Retailer posts to discuss and is amused by this It doesn't need Greg "hyping" the auctions cause we all knew anyway. He just brought it up for discussion. I think other retailers would be equally amazed that something they sold/made/participated in making went that high that fast BUT would have played the "I'm disgusted and sad about this" card in an attempt to water down fires of hype building and to show they're not "down" with that. A PR move, even if it wasn't a totally up front and thought out PR move it'd be one none the less. I don't know what anyone's real feelings are. Greg posted he's just amazed at it, not happy or down about it (unless I misread?) and just thought it'd make good conversation, which it kind of is doing right? Hey dude, can you just edit all my posts or do a re:up of them. I think you nailed it on the head and summed it up perfectly.

I think it SEEMS like there's something fishy because people are LOOKING for something fishy. But logically none of it really fits unless LS (who's kinda got a large amount of truth-telling clout and respect) and Greg (who seems to have less due to his less-then-accepted sense of humor but is backed by the good diplomat LS) are totally lying to us along with Alice, mondocoyote and COOP. Anyway, I'm just saying I think there's nothing more than a case of bad buyers going nuts. Not a systematic hype machine. Or maybe I'm a sucker, but then again I've never paid more than retail for a Nag and hope not to go much further over that (need me a 2 facer though UGH! I have some OK trade bait wink wink MUWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAWRONGSECTIONIKNOW! ) OK I love you. I am also trying to be a stand up comic. I am practicing my less-then-accepted sense of humor here, at the post office, and while hanging with the interns.

abelincolnjr wrote: KR already did a Frankie tee Ok, now I'd like to start a new rumor/controversy that may or may not be true or even remotely closely to the truth.. First, consider this latest Lamour custom Frankenstein lovely & well executed as always: In light of the above Frankie tee, I shall provide the following half-baked facts: 1) Observe the "Cave Man"-ish attire of the above Frankenstein figure 2) It is well known that Frankenstein is Shelly's version of a mutant, not unlike the Siamese Violent Cave Man Conclusion #1: There's a new NagNag pending with the Frankenstein theme, coyly introduced here by Joel { if that's what his real name is..} Conclusion #2: It shall be revealed that the maker of NagNagNag & Joel are one and the same and that both were invented by Greg Mishka Q.E.D. NOTE: it would most definitely delight me to no end to find that the above retarded discourse, produced mostly under the influence of light state of inebriation, would cause anybody so inclined to crack a smile..
