    A box of wgsh megos in a box under a table at a local garage sale...

    So close yet so far...
    hardly hit sales all year because of new baby, assisting coach duties for sons soccer yadda, yadda...
    But at a sale so tantalizingly close to my house was a garage sale where someone I know (friend of a friend) picked up some beater bats robin and supes in a box under the table of stuff at a yard sale. She only grabbed those three because she didn't recognize the other megos(!). Her father, who knows i collect mego, told her to let me see those but I can only imagine what figure, or accessory was left behind!
    Life is not fair!
    WaaaaaH!

    Me want to smell that dirty old box. waaaaaahhh!

    So are you going into detective mode to get the others?

        Either that or he'll strap some M-80s to them and blow them up.

            Inspired by your words, pmwasson, if you look in craigslist Portland under Clark/Cowlitz area under garage sales(or type mego in search for portland craigslist) you should find my admittedly desperate post! This is only happening because baby is asleep and wife at work. Sheesh. AND i've posted like 47 times in last 18 hours. Time to go dark before I get a weird rep.

                  I fail to see the innuendo you suggest when I proclaim I want to smell that smelly old claptrap of a box....hmmph!

                      Thanks glimpy!
                      ...And now today my neighbor, the seven day a week picker, who makes a full time living pickin' high end antiques saw another picker walk out of Goodwill with a naked supes in his hand. I have never found a mego at Goodwill! The nerve! That was mine and mine alone!
                      Actually, i never go to Goodwill, dunno why, don't like it.

                        You should. Thrift stores are your friend. You can find all kinds of goodies there.
