These are selling at Downies ATM for $39.95 + postage.Seems like
a bargain to me

2 per household seems reasonable to me .
I doubt that the "Scalpers" will respect that and try and get a bucket load to flog off later.
Delivery isn't expected until July and knowing Downies slowness in delivery these won't hit the decks until August, The feeding frenzy should have died down by then.

Just waiting for a no red paint error to show up on eBay (it is evitable) :dodgy:

I got mine in early, order was excepted so here's hoping.
Even if I just get one I'll be happy.

Yes RG I don't usually go for these but with only roughly double the mintage of a dollar mule it will be interesting to see where the price settles

And I said I wasn't collecting dollars anymore, I've got sucked in. Probably because I can't get my hands on a poppy $2.
