Yes like it was yesterday...still haunted 4 years later
2011 3 BNIB RC Spooky Stanley's were listed on eBay for $70 BIN...RC Spooky Stanley was a Target exclusive that was cancelled before release and never made it to store shelves!!! But somehow 3 had leaked out and I bought one immediately, but after a week still hadn't been shipped, I contacted the seller who said that she had gone on vacation and would not be back for 3 weeks and offered to cancel the transaction...I was polite and told her I would just wait the 3 weeks until her vacation ended and she could just complete the transaction when she retuned...so I waited and waited and waited, and then 3 weeks later she cancelled the transaction and refunded my money anyway!!! >
RC Spooky Stanley is still classified as cancelled with a never released status, but damn I had one!! Well...sooooooo close but it somehow got away!!!
Another one that still sticks with lingering regret was an exclusive not sold in stores Trackmaster Lion of Sodor statue cargo car listed on eBay and discribed as an executive gift given to Fisher Price management for the release of the Lion of Sodor movie...I knew I should have bought it, but I let it go... "but it was $40" VS. "I knew it was rare"...
DANG IT!!! What was I thinking?!?!
