I never traded but I did some time ago bought a Larger mego type figure in black outfit with a wide grey strip across his chest, It was the guy from LOGANS RUN movie, I think I paid like $5 for it about a decade and a half ago, I was on Ebay and couldnt find it, I travelled the net and I found John Bonavita's site, I asked him about how much is this figure worth as I wanted to sell it, John told me it was worth alot, it at the time looked like a Logans Run prototype, " I still have my pics somewhere on a computer.
He offered m a very pretty penny for it and even offered to give me a lil more money to delivere it to him.
As we met there was a light mist type rain going on and as I got out to hand him the figure, John put it in his coat and leaned in the truck so it not get wet,,,( I swear to another person, it would have looked like a drug deal going down). John was fantastic, He paid me and now the figure is on his site, I wish he gave me a lil credit on his site though. I will have to find the pics.
But I tell ya, I wish I still had that figure as my collection has really grown. I will upload them someday.

I remember John telling me about that! If I remember correctly he also thought it kind of looked like criminal activity. Toy deals often do. The one on the site is different from yours, he got that from a friend of mine and I now own it. John sold the one he got from you to a collector I think in CT but that was a while ago.

a speedy for a supergirl

not a horrible deal, but i had just started collecting then, and i picked up the speedy at a flea market for $5.00 not knowing what it was i traded it to someone here a long time ago for a supergirl.

I very much regret selling my MOC Invisible Girl, MOC Mxy and MIB Green Goblin. I have yet to get these back.

I remember trading my Neptunian to my best friend for a bunch of KISS photos and articles cut out of magazines (I had just caught the KISS bug and was desperate to obtain anything at all to do with the band). This happened over 30 years ago, but I still think I got the short end of the stick in that deal, it was stuff he was probably going to just throw out anyway.

after hearing stories about members trading megos and 12back star wars for kiss clipings and playmate star treks i just remembered my worst trading mistake i traded my teen titans and mego zorro for a half-eaten sandwich,box of paperclips , and a used up husler mag from 1985.
