At first glance it was just Daredevil/Bullseye and Spider-Man/Captain Britain, but they were only $11 each. However being one not so easily dissuaded, and also being of a tall frame, I moved them aside from the top-most shelf and found pressed against the back of the aisle the Wonder Man/Quicksilver pack. This pack was awesome to me because I really like Simon Williams and I already had Scarlet Witch at the time so Quicksilver was a welcome addition. The only souring note of the find was that I got my hand covered in dust and cob-webs getting it down, it had obviously been left up there for quite some time, but compared to what I've seen that pack go for on ebay I count myself lucky. So please share some of your favorite great find at a great price stories, I'm probably not the only one who'd like to read some more.

that is pretty good! I think SDCC set aside, getting Moonstone and Jean Grey for 20 altogether was my best steal
