Yes, I'm wondering....on his tax return does he claim Godzilla as an expense, or as a dependent?

What bothers me is that the buys the ones we can almost afford and then drops them back on the Bay 2-3 weeks later at a $500 markup. If you don't wanna keep em, then let someone else have it.

I agree Steve, he's beat me on a couple of things to then just turn around and jack up the price. I guess all is fair in love and war so as long as he's bidding I can just hope to make him pay more.

I find the godzilla figurines both obnoxious and incredibly endearing. I can't explain it. They make me want to buy the bass even more, yet they annoy me . . . hmmm.

I will not ever buy from him. I don't know him personally, is probably a nice and fun-loving guy, but I don't agree with the way he goes about it.

It would be interesting to use them in our auctions. Meaning, if forum members decided to sell on ebay we could use dinosaurs. Then wait for HIM to bid on them and do a double take when he sees WE are using his stupid animal idea. Of course, we will look silly like him!
