Nope, I ****ing missed it!!! I left it til the last minute and then tried to bid and was told I needed my account verified!! I was absolutely pee'd off!! By the time I was confirmed it had passed!!

 

[Muppetlab]

Ahhhgghh! How annoying!

Looking at the winning bids.. The papers went for over $300 plus a $60 fee and then the shipping and customs to the UK would have made them really pricey!

 

[Reevz1977]

Hmmmm, pricey but worth it Muppet props, considering how many there must be, rarely come up for sale - at least not that I can find.

Darn those customs though, don't you just love em!! When I called them "legalised pirates", my post from abroad seemed to get held more frequently...just to warn you.

Hmm, something strange when it says "Simular to the ones seen on screen". If it is a screen used prop, it should be exactly on the screen!!

something like posters or newspapers - there would have been several of them. They may be production used, not screen used.

 

[Joe P]

To be fair to them, I guess the listing doesn't describe them as being "screen-used" either. It would be nice to have that provenance, but with several papers like these having been sold, good luck proving it. They're clearly from the art department at the very least, so I think they're cool and have value no matter what. It's a case of buyer beware, knowing what you're getting and being comfortable with a price.

And if anyone here wins it, be sure to let us know. Would be great to hear a success story

So did anyone here win the papers? I got outbid at $200..

I won the crew pass tho
