Actually the funny thing is that other then the Marines I have spent the majority of my working life in some king of service enviroment, including selling new/used vehicles which I did not do so well at because I was to honest, McDougal you made a necklace for me of something that I wanted, just like Benzart is doing and also Flounder. What I paid is small compaired to the joy I got from getting your necklace that you made for me, or the joy I know I will feel when I get the pieces from Flounder and Ben. To me the Chalice is kind of truly the Holy Grail now in a way, because of how scarce it is, but it really sucks to hear some guy say how he cannot afford it and then call it a great investment in the next breath, yeah it is, for him if somebody is willing to pay the $350 he is asking, I truly hope that some of these people that bought them with the idea of making out on the ones that could not be there, do not sell them, but I know that there will be some that bought it and will have to sell it just to help pay the bills, hey I was one of the people that bought a second Gecko(somewhat not intentionally)to help someone buy an engagement ring. But like many mugs that I covet I figure someday somehow it will be the right place and time for me to have it, good thing I am patient.
