There was 1 corner wall on Brickbay recently for $25(!), but it's not there
now.  I'm not sure if it was sold, or the seller removed it.  I personally
can't see why anyone would value the walls that highly - but then, I'm not
willing to pay more than about $60-$75 for the whole set, and it has gone
for hundreds in the past.  I haven't been tracking prices on it lately, though.

The corner wall was sold, not removed. It was in my store inventory for less
than 12 hours before it was purchased. The high price tag was not only due
to the rareity/importance of the part, or even that the part had never
before been sold openly on Brickbay but the corner wall in question was as
new looking as if seen for the first time thru an unopened factory sealed
poly-bag. I was unsure if the corner would sell at all and wouldn't have
been heart broken if it didnt...afterall, they don't come along every day
(making tracking its price near impossible...its almost a matter of who
wants it more the buyer or the seller).

Yup.  Sorry if it seemed I was slamming you for setting the high price on
it...heck, I wouldn't have sold mine for that low (but that's because I'm
not willing to sell mine) ;)

I was just observing that it was there, and then it wasn't.  Like you said,
it's a matter of who wants it more - you might have changed your mind. :)

Obviously there are folks out there who value the 6067 parts very highly,
and I tried to get that across by saying it's gone for hundreds before -
it's just that I'm not one of them.

Hope that was a little clearer...
