My Kind of Moving Sale-Craigslist Score

Post by Axis Nightmare » Fri Jun 20, 2014 5:22 pm

The Craigslist ad said he was in the process of moving and was selling his "Air Force". Got my attention for sure. This is why despite all the antics and issues with Craigslist, I keep trying. Met a GREAT guy I can now call a friend with GREAT deals. I spent 3 years worth of "toy money" in a couple of days but this was an opportunity that would not repeat. The items were at prices I just couldn't refuse. Two visits to the A.T.M. before the two visits were over as some was already moved and some was in the original location. Among other things, I got the Camo F-104 and Tiger striped MiG I've been after as well as a Bubble P-47 I didn't have an example of at a fraction of today's high pricing. Here are some of the items I brought home:

This 1/6 scale jeep may have been the best deal of the lot. Complete and just pulled out of the original box for this picture.
