Anyhow, my question:  why don't they do this in Canada?  All I ever see are

G'day folks, Today I found 2 5798s (Sphinx Secret Surprise) with discount prices on them. They are in the "Boxes are Pretty Beat Up" section of the store, but everything still looked sealed. The price was Cdn$33 (approx. US$22). Is this a decent (...) (25 years ago, 6-Feb-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)
