That Craigslist ad obviously got my attention right away. The set clearly was a 21-CT-55, not a CT-100. But the price was more than I was willing to invest in another treasure right now.

I had pretty much decided that I was going to pass on it and post the information here, but (sorry about this, guys!) then I figured "what the heck?" and called the guy and told him that it wasn't what he thought it was, but it was a collectible set and I was interested, and what would he take for it? And he said "Oh, pretty much anything. I just want to get it out of here." He had found it in the basement of his house when he moved in. So I offered him a couple hundred bucks and he agreed.

I made it to his house, about a 45 minute drive from me, in a little over a half hour. I'm hurtin' today from wrestling it out of the house and into my van, but it's a good kind of sore!
