I emailed him a list of all the links to these threads on the board. He should get a laugh out of them. HAHA!

[doc_moore_j]

Hey Johnny, did that dude email you back yet?

[jkaris]

Yup, read on!

oki thanx I'm turning you in the next mail you send me, you've harrased me
long enough when I have stopped any e-mails to you and I expected the same
and telling people to look at "this a-hole's auction," I'm glad it gave you
such a thrill or stinted your life, now leave me be, it's not my fault your
colors suck and you never got the mail-in, you're a loser.

[doc_moore_j]

Sweet, I wonder if he read all of them, or just deleted them pissed off?

[arforbes]

Yup, read on!

Turning you in, huh! Haha!!!

That's pretty funny! What a jackass!

for all the crap he got, the guy made out like a bandit.
the auction ended at $20.50 for 10 figures. and the bidding went down to the final few seconds.

so i guess he got the last laugh....???

but on the other hand, we got some very good entertainment and a new legend........

[EASports]

OK everyone, just to clear this up. I'm the guy that won the auction. I'm perfectly aware of the fact that there are no send away muscles, they weren't rare, this guy sucks, etc. I just put a small bid on, and got caught up in the bidding at the last minute. You all know how it goes. So if I'm a sucker, I'm a sucker for bidding, not a naive sucker.

[doc_moore_j]

haha, thats cool of you to come join us man. Welcome to the board. We know that guy sucks and not you.

[musclemenkids]

yeah we love those figs as much as the next musclehead and if you wanted them thats fair enough. i think we should all email the guy and ask him to join the board and we can throw a party to celebrate

[EASports]

Well you know, with all this hype, I can always justify my bid by saying, "Well, I do have THE ultra rare blue Zord." Or whatever. I'll get the hang of it all eventually...

Ah, so you are now the owner of the RARE Blue Zord! That's cool man, welcome aboard!

You're right dude, you have THE Zord that started it all... we should treat him like the Stanley Cup and pass him around so everyone can enjoy his company for a couple days

Ha! Well, that happens to all of us...

The figures in the auction were actually pretty nice. Who wouldn't want colored versions of the two Nikus and the Hand? But it's very unfortunate that the scalper was able to get this much money. It just encourages him to scalp and lie more. Just remember... scalping wouldn't exist if we didn't buy from the scalpers...

That said, the auction was alot of fun, not only from reaming the seller but also from developing the Blue Zord as the epitome of lameness. What do you have to say about that, Zord-boy?!

Its easy to get caught up in the moment of bidding when you first start recollecting something.

Back in '97 I saw some m.u.s.c.l.e. men in an old 80s toy store I bought the one 28 pack they had and a couple flesh 4 packs. The next day I went in and bought about 70 4 packs. bought all the flesh packs, flesh and colored packs and quite a few of there colored ones.

I am sure most if not all of us have been caught up in the moment and spent to much on something.

Several thousands of toys later.....
I agree.

[arforbes]

Yeah, I can definitely relate to that! I once owned over 2000 M.U.S.C.L.E. Men after all the winning bids I placed when I was addicted to ebay at first. Now that I have my collection, I'm finally over that, I think...
