I'm putting this plea out to the collectors of this board, because I need some help. You see I've getting married in about 3 weeks or so and I need some help. Well as you would know, every last bit of money would help, with that in mind I'm going to have to do something that I really don't want to....But I really have too. I need to get $100 dollars asap. With that in mind I need to see the 16 Cobra Infantry that I have and 4 officers, 2 brown, 2 red, all for a 100 dollars. But the thing is I really like these figures, and I it took me quite awhile to get them so I really don't want to sell them outright. If any of you out there, that I can find to trust, would be willing to do some time of loan until August 20th or so, that would be awesome. What I mean is I send you my figures to hold onto, display keep in the box, whatever until around August 20th so that I can pay you back. The reason I say August is because the wedding is July 3rd, but I know for sure that we will still be paying off a couple of things in that month. I'm just looking for someone to help me out, and if you can then GREAT, if you can't then that's fine........I would be willing, it would be hard, to sell them outright. I just need some help. And if 100 dollars for those 20 figures sounds like a bit much, then someone pm and let me know, so that I could find something else......It's just that I need these 100 dollars asap. Thank you for taking the time to read this post.........Thank You.

I wish I could help you, but I don't have enough space for twenty more figures and I don't have enough money either.

I wish I could. but my wife would kill me. She does not even like the fact I am trading some stuff to complete what I have.

You may not want to do this, and it is only advice, but go a temp job or mow someone's lawn until you have the money. Yah, you are going to have to sacrifice a weekend, but you won't have to get rid of those beloved Joes. Just remember there are other alternatives.

Okay, let me get this straight:

#1. You're really hurting for $100. . .

#2. Because you're getting married? Just FYI, I had a simple chapel wedding with no guests AND a borrowed tux and it cost me way over $100 (not counting THE RING, see below), PLUS I had to wean myself off of Joes during the engagement and several weeks after.

#3. This have something to do with the ring?

I just don't get this at all :confused: :confused: :confused:. . .

i am getting ready for my wedding and honestly I do not see how a hundo would make much difference unless you were late on a payment for the ring or needed a deposit for something. It would probably be easier to borrow it from a pal.
