This is just sad, someone who probably seen Robins wea box and Dr Jeep 10" acetate sell for huge money.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/The-Sisters-O ... 2518.l4276

Nothing in this collection that justify the huge overprice...

They all look a bit dog-eared to me. Or is that just the reflection off the sleeves?

I don't think you will find another one like this for a very long time...

I think you'll find another one just like it if you carelessly rip the pin off the back of your Reptile House badge. "The item would be a perfect eye-catcher if go to a jeweller and ask to make a pendant of it, a nice necklace!" Indeed, if you could find a jeweler who wouldn't laugh you off the premises. Condition "Neuwirtig" my arse.
