These aren't particularly rare, BUT...

Post by impairedsquirrel » Sat Aug 05, 2023 9:44 pm

You can find several of these offered online at any given moment, usually for around $80-100, so you may be asking "Are you NUTS Squirrel?! Why would a cheap-ass like you spend extra on something that is fairly common??" Good question.
The answer is, well, I like Dr.Pepper, it's a major brand and that gives things like this a little extra "zip" in the marketplace...
BUT, the BIG reason I bought this is because it may be the ONLY one that happens to also hold what is probably the COOLEST VAM in this yr/mm, which will also ALWAYS remind me of Nate Mailliard due to his picking it as VotW shortly before his passing. So, yeah... HAD to have it.
I go totally NUTS for WOW! VAMs!! Or is that from WOW! VAMs?

Okay, why do I get "It was not possible to determine the dimensions of the image. Please verify that the URL you entered is correct." when I try to add pics?
Problem solved!

I think you need to crack it out and resubmit it for a better grade.

That is very cool and for a very cool reason! I did not know Nate as well as some but really liked him. He was such a great person, always willing to help, which he did for me on more than one occasion, with my 85's and others. Really liked his taste in music too. :D Nice purchase.

@impairedsquirrel Your buddy Nate sounds like he was a " solid dude" and a really good human ! It sucks his life was cut so short . I wished I would have been here back then . You honor his memory!
