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.

I looked up some of the other items they had up for sale.  33 out of 36 of
their auctiond have been for special McD's stuff.  They can only be a member of
MCD's, mgr or someone who can get the stock ahead of time in large amounts.
And If that is the case man are they lining their pockets!!!  Especially with
the beanies.  They are fairly hard to come by when you go to the resturants.
And if the person has 20-60 or more sets of them, now we know why we may not be
able to find goodies left when we go to get them at the restuarants.  It's a
good service for those outside the US where they aren't offered.  But still,
that kind of rip should not be done until the promo is over.  And not in some
of those quanities!  But that is just my opinion.  I intend to buy enough happy
meals for me and hubby to get some sets for me and for others not here in the
states.  I can already taste the fries now ;-)
