I have to ask out of curiosity, roughly how much did you pay? (You can say euphemisms like small fortune or dirt cheap of you're uncomfortable sharing exactly how much).

$15.99 for both of them.  Seriously, I know that's crazy, but sometimes one gets really, really lucky (or really, really unlucky!) in life and/or collecting.

Clearly, the seller on eBay didn't realize what he had on offer... Shocked cheers

Thank you, Fernando. Truthfully, I had long ago resigned myself to the possibility that these
were figurines I might never collect. But, just "dumb luck" on my part.

Don't worry, there is a gemsbok duo in your future...

By the way, if you follow football, you must be very excited about Colombia's prospects in
this World Cup. Playing in South America is helpful, and even without Falcao, Colombia has
a very strong squad and I think will win its group... Smile

Congrats! Sometimes you get lucky on eBay and the seller has no knowledge of them at all (if they're retired, what they're worth etc.) and they are often sold at a price much lower than what they're really worth.
