I would sell that one now. Take your 100% profit.

You can buy 15 sticks of brand name gum at wal-mart (out the door) for a buck.

Truly Awesome.
I've been wishing for a long time for a junk bin.
Last time I found one dealer reserved the right to do the junk picking.

Up until recently...the only thing in it was 1990's steel coins from Venazuela. 100's of them.

No takers in the KSA. I started with a bid of $50.

Pics are over on the KSA's still.

What do you guys think?
