    That's a steal , nice one.

    Must get an extra Predaking decal set from Reprolabels.
    I did mine and it looked awesome, then sold it (bills) for $320 (incomplete) and stuck it out with the re issue

    You bought it? Sweet deal, bro; I've seen the reissue go for more than that. Nice one!

    Nope, you got ripped off. But if you feel so bad about it, I'll pay you $120 and you can send it here. :D

    That would have gone for 2000$ easy before the reissue.

    Be glad yours is original! :)

    $2000 is a tad of an over estimate.

    I got mine (with instructions and boxes) for about $250 US about a year before the reissue came out.

    So to answer the orignal question, yes you got a very nice deal.

    Yeah. I would only expect that kind of insane selling price for all 5 MIMSB.

    Man, I'm still upset I missed the damn reissue. I really hope those guys get the encore treatment.

    Maybe I was looking at a MISB deal. I just rememberd almost pulling a trigger on a predaking about 2 weeks before the announcement of re-issuse and it was going for huge $$.

    I am glad I didn't get OS... I was up to 175$ for a complete working one.
