After waiting two years for one to come up for sale... I had to have it!
I can only conclude that I'm paying off Karma at a vastly accelerated rate.

I'm trying to remember how much I paid for my copy on ebay about 12 months back.
No where near £155, I think I paid under £50 and thought that was expensive.

I must admit that I didn't think it would go that high. Never mind... I can go without food and beer for a month... it'll do wonders for my figure!

But did you see the Jamboree stamp set -
All of them(except 1 sport) for just over a tenner
And I missed the bidding -
I wanted to try and get the floorboard sport.
Oh well - until next time...
Crazy in reverse - bargain in my eyes (2 sports/tent triangle+6or7 others)

Looked online today and what did I see.... a whole set of the "eaten by snails etc." covers. Also loads of cheap penny patrician sports, lots of good goup lots and a strip of the turtle moves stamps.. I hate this because my mum said my online spending was cancelled. I hope that me being good can resolve this. 
p.s. This is so annoying. I really like the stamps/covers/strips up on ebay now. I would love private offers for me to consider for the future. Any items I have listed above, I would love to come to a deal in future!

I will be playing Thenardier at the Theatre royal in Margate, Kent from 24th July to 28th. If you are in the area at the time please click the link to get more info:

I doubt they'll stay 'cheap' for long. Don't confuse an eBay starting price, with a winning bid. That'll help you more with online buying than just being good.

I will confess to being the 2nd place bidder on the £151 lot.
We could only go up to £150, wanting the Balloon Race and the lilac twinning with the plan of re-selling/trading the others.

On the flipside, I'm shocked at how little some things have gone for!
