Or close enough to it. Ran into an old friend of mine last night and found out he had some TFs he wanted to sell. So my and a friend of mine that collects G1 went to see what he had. Shocked and amazed we were. And bought everything he had. Here are some of the things we got.
Skorponok complete
Abominus complete
2 Devestators 1 complete
Defensor near complete
Bruticus complete
Chromdome complete
Suprion Gift set MIB complete
Megatron MIB complete
Shockwave complete and working
loads of micromasters
Weirdwolf missing head master eyes
Metroplex(rubber wheels) near complete
RID Prime and Magnus
and lots of RID and some G2 stuff. How much did we pay? 600 bucks a real bargain! Got lots of stuff to sell on ebay, like Kup, Japanese Starscream reissue. Lots of G1 parts. All in all a great day!

Wow nice haul man! Wish I could find some of those. How much did he want for that MIB Megatron? I've been looking for that one.

When we got back to my place my friend and I split the lot into the peices we wanted and he got the Megs, but he was asking 100 for it.

Oh wow. Well that's certainly a better price than what I've seen for it.

Since the person you bought it from was an old friend of yours, I'm curious. Did you tell him how much his stuff was worth?

Holy three blind mice Batman, How does that happen?
Nice haul. I love stories like this. Mostly because I wish they would happen to me next.

I'm amazed how people can find G1 stuff after 20 odd years!
