Here's something you don't see everyday (or ever before in all the time I've been watching ebay)

That's a cool statue. Someone recently sent me a (wearable) mask for the Goblin king just like this. I guess there's something in the air about now!

Some folk have an odd idea of what the word 'hobbit' means -
The blurb says it's one of a kind - we can only hope!

What's wrong with this description?

*grumble* I still regret not going a bit higher on the ebay auction of The Old English Exodus two days ago... it went for around £130. Only 3,000 copies printed, it seldom turns up. I would be a happy with a reprint, though, if it ever comes out.
I know; £131. I'll happily spend my money on something more worthwhile. I just don't think items like this are worth this much. 3,000 copies is a huge number, for how many of these turn up. It's not like you see tatty copies turning up; all are in pretty collectable condition --so where the hell are they all!? Bah! I say; people shouldn't need to pay triple figures for this.
