Posting it in public isn't really helping anyone. More than likely you may have caused the seller to get 50 extra emails and in turn jack the price up.
If you want to "help", then pass the deal along in private to your friends or a collector you know in that area.
Think about if you were the one who got screwed when you thought you had the deal locked down?
Wish I could find a TOTAN for that price haha....next time tell me only...especially if its in BC
