I was really lucky. I got it from a dealer over 10 years ago for crazy 15 Euros. Until today I am angry that I didn't ordered 10 or more these times... :cry:
I think he didn't knew what he had there, but there was no photo in the catalogue and no #number listed, so he must have had more and he wasn't awary of any variations.
I hope you receive yours. The one I bought last week has been misplaced by the postal service. :(

After it's status was NOT updated on the USPS website for 6 days my grail showed up bright and early this morning and boy, am I happy. My first screwpost base!!!!! :yahoo
Dunno what was up with the USPS and it may or may not be a coincidence that both the sender and the recipient contacted them during the time it was missing but this may be something to remember; be agressive when something goes missing, and also don't automatically assume the seller's ripping you off.
Anyhow, here she is! Thanks, Ted!

Heyyyy congrats!!!! That was luck, I know that feeling, just waited 3 weeks for a bunch of rare badges including these Mine Clearing Badges which were sent from Vienna to Germany. Three weeks! I already thought, I will never see them, but then they arrived. Good to see, that yours ended up where it belongs too! :thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup
