      No problem.It will be interesting to see what the Cajun Pawn Stars pay for the figures, if they do buy them.

              Wow what a ripoff. I knew i didn't like this show for a reason. The so called expert was so far off in his value. Granted they were missing parts, they were clean. In my head i got somewhere in the $400 dollar range. Twice what the expert said. And the guy took $95 i think. I was so disgusted i tuned it out. The owner of the pawn shop did throw some love our way for the annual mego meet. So he did a little homework. He tried to sound like he knew about mego but his facts semed like a Wikipedia search to me. Overall i was disappointed in the show. I remember now why i stopped watching.

                Ya he had all the info on how Mego passed on the Star Wars license.

                Did any notice the Catwoman wearing the Batgirl cowl?
                That means the guy bringing them in didn't know squat about Megos either,
                and the fact that he thought he could get $2000 for them. He wouldn't even be able to get near that on Ebay, and a pawn shop is going to give him as little as they can.

                    I can't tell you how many times I've walked into a pawn shop with something I thought was worth "a couple grand", only to leave with $90, and then say I'm happy about it!

                        I noticed the Cowl on Catwoman,lol.Yeah Pawn shops are going to pay as little as possible.granted parts were missing but $90 for 10, 12, 15 Megos is a pretty cheap offer, but it was over all a nice well loved collection.Not sure who was worst, the wife for making him sell or the pawn shop for being a cheapskate.They sure aren't going to let anyone know what prices they will be selling them for.

                          $90-what a rip,i never cared for this show ,but watched the mego part twice,cool to see these close up,i looked them
                          over,and from what i could see was the lizard,hulk,iron man,aquaman,superman,supergirl,catwoman,shazam,fal con,
                          mr fantastic,invisible girl,robin,and even though they didnt have certain parts-and the expert didnt really point all that
                          out,the pawn shop should have at least gave him $250,oh i forgot capt america.unless they show more megos,i
                          would never watch this stupid show,ill stick to toy hunter & pawn stars.

                            $90 was a low offer, but they weren't worth alot of money.

                            The only two that I saw that would be worth while is Mr. Fantastic and Invisible girl.

                            That lot was nothing to write home about. I wouldn't have paid alot for the those either if my whole point was to flip for a profit.

                              I can understand the pawn shops goal, but there is such a thing as being fair.
