This is part of the reason that, with almost no exceptions, I never try to get
MISB sets on eBay or in trades--I feel too guilty to enjoy them.  I prefer them to
be open and loose (but complete, of course).  Then I don't have to feel that big
DROP in my stomach when I break the seal!

I LIKE that part ;-)   Opening the MISB 6571 was a trip!  It's so bizarre to build
such a nice, HIGH QUALITY (TLC, you listening?) old set with such wonderful parts.

Cracking open MISB 4558s somewhat hurts, though ;-)  I've opened one, I can't bring
myself to open the other until I've gotten the other used sets and built them.

(...) If a set is sealed, I won't. If it's opened but polybags are closed, I won't. If it's open and repacked, I might. It depends on the RoI I'm likely to see in return, and whether or not it will deny me a complete set on some Faraway Future (...)
