Even besides price, there are few opportunities for those outside the Order to obtain a Horkey OG. I'd pay out of my ass for this one if the person was selling because I love this one, but few would sell and I don't think I could camp out in line for days ahead of time. Anyone know how many days before opening that first person waited in line?

It was like 9 or 10. He was first in line at Mike Mitchell's Star Wars show the Friday before (which he lined up like Tuesday or Wednesday for that), and then just stayed in line after that opening, until the next Friday...
So it goes...

jeebus. that's drymounting crazy. camped out 10 drymounting days? no job?
pay via paypal, use credit card,file dispute at the 20 day mark if suspicious. don't deal with noobs. don't trade with noobs. request feedback ahead of time. there are lots of good people 'round here.

Nah, he told us while in line for the SWXMM gallery that he didn't have a job and was using tax return money, he also drove halfway across the country.

What are items I did not wait 10 days in line for, just passively looked for over the last several years.
