A good majority of what you have been posting has been about the value of this, the value of that or the what the value may be. We are collectors - the value is in the eye of the beholder. Do we believe you got a good deal on these? If you wanted them and felt it was the right price then absolutely!

I've been collecting for the better part of 20 years. I've been through the Ups and Downs. Live by these rules and you'll be happier in the long run, it makes the journey more fun:
1. If you want it and have the means to get it - Get it.
2. If you are more interested in the value of the item, you do not want/need the item.
3. Collectors collect. Collectors are not in this to turn a quick profit. They are in because they love the product.
4. Say your prayers and take your vitamins. Rinse and Repeat.

Good advice.

Edit: As for the Spidey arm; since you have that pin in there, ever think about going with rare earth magnets? You can get them pretty small and just attach the other end with a small screw that has a head that conforms to the shape of the joint; so that the magnet rests on it an can be swiveled and pivoted without it slinging back into only one position. I've thought about doing this but getting the magnets that size has been a challenge, albeit I haven't really invested enough research for myself.
