I was curious how this person obtained 100 sets (that's enough for 900 happy
meals!).
It sounds like McDonalds is being ripped off most of all. To be able to have
that large of a quantity, I'm thinking that the seller has an "in" in a
warehouse. As in maybe they fell off the back of a truck? One of their previous
auctions was for some bear that they stated only 2000 were made and they ran a
dutch auction for 50 of them!
Keep us posted if you get any response from McDonalds.
