    Hey Splitty, in case you don't already know. In with your MLP is Cha-Cha the Llama, it's pretty tough to find. I don't collect MLP, but have a soft spot for their "friends". You can probably get $25-$60 for that.

    Man, I've been too busy of late (until just now) to even take pics of the stuff.
    It's been really hard going so far this summer. Nothing but OODLES and oodles of g-sales with nothing but baby clothes and preschool toys. Oodles.
    And then two weekends it's rained, and apparently nobody has a tarp. However, I manage to score some stuff, although it feels like I'm paying higher prices than usual, but it's all good! Still under the resell radar! (or guilt keep radar)

    This is the last two months worth (plus the last score I posted here). Detailed price breakdowns are in the pic links.

    Evil teletubbies tub was only $1 !!! oh, I have plans. Evil plans.


    Turtles run amok!!
    All turtles & accessories were only $5 for the lot! Animated Cryptkeeper $10 (a steal, this guy's rare), and everything else like .25 or less.


    BOO-YA. Paid $5 ea for Final Fantasy Playart figs, which should over-pay for the $10 Kimahri statue (goes for $80 online!), so that means a FREE sweet Kinahri for me!!! Bag o' LUCHAS $1. That T2 bottle (.75!) is going to be a pencil holder shortly...


    I paid $17 for all the vintage dolls and bags of 60s Barbie clothes, .25 ea for My Little Ponies, $1 Serta Lamb bobble, $2 sweet DVD, and $3 electronic Robot Chicken!! Being as the doll stuff is going to go for alot more, it's like I'm being paid to keep the Robot Chicken & DVD. And Serta lamb. Can't argue with that.

    Someone responded to my Craigslist ad. These were his toys from his childhood. Craigslist comes through again!

    I am planning on bringing a lot of this to Mego Meet.

    Yesterday stunk for me.

    I went to one where it mentioned vintage GI JOE (that you had to ask for). It was an older guy who in his 60s I guess who had an odd mixture of 60s, 70s and a lot of 90s reissue stuff. I drove almost an hour to get there and the guy had no idea what he wanted or how much any of it was worth and kept hitting me with these trick questions that were annoying me.

    He had like a Man of Action with Kung-Fu grip in a 60s Deep Sea Diver outfit that looked complete, but the head was gluded on, patches of hair missing and discolored hands.

    I've been through it before: Older guy, bought GI Joe strictly as investment in the 90s and thinks they are sitting on a goldmine now.

    hit the Stormville flea market this morning. lots of vintage goodness. i picked up a GI Joe footlocker with a nice sea adventurer inside, several outfits including the 2 zipper astronaut, part of a muscle body and a few other accessories.
    saw several Trek Megos, boxed Apes Stallion...guy wanted $80.00...that a good price?
    also spotted a Bionic Woman car, which I don't remember ever seeing but it was the correct scale and had the BW stickers on it
    unforetunately had to leave before getting though all the rows due to other engagements
