I really want to buy some of the Phantom collectibles like the statue and bust, but the prices are little out of my reach. But if fans come across any other cool Phantom/Mandrake collectibles, I hope to see some links and pictures of those here. We may not be able to buy them, but it is sure fun to see what stuff is out there .

It's a free download. The program allows users to save the results of searches and automatically update the listings as new items become available. And works for as many items as you wish to search for. This can be useful when searching for obscure or rare items. Although on a given day no results might be found for a search query this doesn't mean that results wont be found at a later date. Ebay search manager will look out for your items on your behalf. I have some other E-Bay automation tools scheduled to be developed down the track. Ebay Search Manager

I have added in an option to download and install the program manually at the bottom of the page. That should get you up and running. Thanks for the feedback. Please feel free to give me any other feedback. It will help me to make the program better.

Not being able to speak viking I had to run the page through google translate. here is a translated search result for "fantomen": http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=sv&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tradera.com%2Fsearch%2Fresult.aspx%3Fsearch%3Dfantomen%26search_category%3D-1%26x%3D0%26y%3D0&anno=2 For English speakers, hover the mouse over any of the Swedish text and google overlays a translated version. Most of these items seem to ship just to Nordic countries, but I am sure some would be willing to send worldwide. Does anyone know of am Ebay website from Norway?

Especially someone who knows it's value will continue rising. I just need some money kind of soonish.

I just recently sold some cards from my old HR holden that hng off the hadlight swith when you bought it new in 1966. For 6 days it was $42 and then in the last 36 seconds i got $120 for it. Totally unbeliveable as it is just two small bits of cardboard.

Mick Collins Posts: 1,048 Group: Team CC Member #79 Joined: January 29, 2007	I posted a link in the Good Game forums thinking it was an appropriate place to advertise a game but people just started name calling and laughing. Man that pissed me off. They just don't understand that people will pay top price for certain items. That's why this is the number one forum I visit.
