Have a Warrior Christmas!
Posted by: Mike Talon on 12/04/2004

Yes indeed wrestling fans! The very same Warrior that took great pleasure in insulting the collector that convinced him to give online auctions a try has managed to list an additional 59 of his wrestling figures in 2 new dutch auction formats. The self-proclaimed “conservative mind” has taken the holidays into consideration though. How so? Let me explain:

Previously, these “collectible” figures were available for the bargain basement price of 65 bucks each, plus a generous 10 bucks shipping & handling charge per figure. Simple math provides us with a 75 dollar price tag for a 12 dollar figure that you can find in most Wal-Mart stores around the country. Now, taking into consideration that these figures can be shipped anywhere in the country via priority mail for about 5 bucks, AND that priority boxes & tape are free, Warrior was charging every customer 58 bucks for his autograph. But wait… There’s more!

Using his mystical powers, Warrior realized that around the holidays, people tend to open their pocketbooks and lose their minds. Sensing their weakness, he leapt to the attack once again. This time though, he showed no mercy on his hapless victims. The current stock he is offering is the exact same Series 1 & 3 figures as before. The only difference is now they are over TWICE THE PRICE! You heard it here first. The same figure with the same autograph for 125 bucks each plus the 10 bucks shipping. Doing the same math as before, Warrior is now charging 118 bucks for his autograph.

He’s a veritable Santa Claus for sure right? Of course he is! After all, for your 135 bucks, you’re not only getting his autograph and a 12 dollar figure – you’re also getting a free 8X10 picture of him and a “Warrior Santa” Christmas card. I think Scrooge would be proud.

As usual, I remain…..

P.S. – Tell ya what Warrior...In the outside chance that you read this or it is passed on to you by one of your lackeys, change your auction counters to count only unique hits by individual users. There’s really no need to lie to yourself about your popularity… especially at Christmas.
