anyway, I came across an auction that had closed and it was for one of the
Darth Maul keychains, and the high bid was.....$28.00 + postage(I assume).
That is an incredible 7x the SAH price, and it is available through SAH at this

any common sense, I mean, at least call SAH before bidding so much on such a
little thing. And if you don't know the number, it's not that hard to find.
Sorry for ranting, I guess it doesn't matter since it wasn't my money that
someone wasted.
