Re: Seems a bit expensive.
i think the john igoe influence has made people believe they are much rarer than they are. I got out bid the other day on one shad that went for £14 in the end.

That is bang-on right G-H-E.
There are LOADS of Shads about.
We've all got huge armies of them...
I've knocked paying large amounts of money for Shads in the past, but in this instance I feel the price is good.
Just under £20 for two minties is reasonable. The logos look great and they are the second edition re-sculpted versions [which the Baron hates] but which I personally think are better....
So back to Mark's main point, in this case, I think they were expensive, but, considering, a reasonable price.
