Glad you scored! I too noticed the Pirates and Islanders stuff, but I'm not
really in to those series, so I passed. My big score yesterday was mainly
technic, plus I picked up the last 5561 they had for $60. I had been coveting
this set for a while, but didn't want to pay nearly $90 for it. I though it
must have been fate that it happened to be there and on sale on the day I make
the haul up.
BTW: I picked up the other nine 6318's. ;-)
