K3V HA Posted July 20, 2004 Share Posted July 20, 2004 (edited) LOL at Mike, TBH id 'want' about 5.5k, but then id drop into the real world and ask for about 4-5k. Ive spent that on it since i got it, but hey, we all know the price you pay! I think i could prb sell to a chav for the first figure, but then id prob want to keep it in the club!
