That one has been on eBay for years. I only want the lamprey, and can't justify the cost for the rest...!

I just got the monkfish from him, but got dinged a bit on shipping from Germany. Apparently it doesn't cost less to ship one than two dozen figured.

If I'd known we could have worked something out for the lot!

Even if I did, we live in different countries so it wouldn't be much different than shipping it from Germany. I offered $10 for the fish, perhaps a stronger offer than it's worth, but I don't know when I'd find another one.

Okay, who here bought the lot after all these years?!
I was ready to pull the trigger today and it's been bought!

BlueKrono

I made the offer and he accepted, so the auction ended. But I'm only getting the monk. Hopefully he relists it in a couple days, sans that one fish.

Ask if he'd sell the rest to someone else! I can't contact him.

If it's any comfort I don't think it's the same lot that was available years ago, I've occasionally checked for Panini figures after seeing a set just like this years ago get sold and this one only just recently came up that I can tell, and I stumbled on it at random this time...  So I suspect it's possible the same seller might occasionally have complete sets of it available

Welp, got it for $26. I guess the seller won...

Anyone need pieces of the set, I'll see where I am with most of it when it arrives

BlueKrono

I'd dibs the viperfish of course. I'm curious about the brown "rat" to the right of the purple pufferfish too, but I can't quite make out what it is.

Can do the viperfish.

I'll see what the rat thing is. Looks fishy to me.

My main keeps are lamprey, eel, torpedo ray, and cuttlefish

I forgot that TAI had them.

Seeing that, I don't think I can give up the viperfish, since it's actually a sabertooth fish--there aren't many aulopiformes figures, and definitely not that one, sorry @BlueKrono

BlueKrono

Kicking myself for not noticing it before I paid $20 for one fish.
