[Groop] Fw: Anniversary gift

[eugene Phillip]

  I'm having all my trade paperbacks hard bound.  I just did an eBay search for Groo for the first time in years, just to see if Ryan's price of $75 for a set of trading cards was realistic.  I found 1400 items, most with no bids, but ridiculously optimistic "buy it now" prices.  The completed sales indicated that my collection has a negative value because most items received "no bids", but the shipping cost of many items was more than the "buy it now" price.  Are members of the Groop bailing?

I guess the question is whether it would be less expensive to get the
trade paperbacks, which presumably would also be convenient to pull
off the bookshelf.
