I was going through the threads here and saw this one which of course I found extremely interesting as it was about ME. First of all, Star Wars is NOT about MONEY. Its an epic tale that has been a wonderful part of my life for 30 YEARS. Second of all, I felt the statue was worth that amount TO ME. Maybe not to YOU, but you are not me. I didn't want to miss the opportunity of being able to look at it every day. To me it's a piece of ART, not a toy. If you think I overpaid that's fine, but I could afford it. People ripping on me must just be jealous, I guess, when they say I am stupid. And as far as your comments Travis about your friend ... have you ever heard of Kharma?
