This past Friday, I overheard one vendor tell another vendor he had just scored, based on the ID tag, a Hipo toploader from yet a 3rd vendor. I asked him if it had a VIN stamped on the case. He didn't know, and was not familiar with that detail. Met up with him at his pad location, and sure enough, it was VIN stamped. (5R07K155573 if I recall & read it correctly)
Now here is the rest of the story; When telling his vendor friend about his good fortune, he also mentioned he payed just $65.00 bucks for it.
That is sort of like the gentleman in England who recently found a stash of gold treasure with his metal detector. When all was said & done, he, and the property owner, split 5.5M, the assessed value of the find.
We should all experience that kind of luck at a swap meet at least once in this lifetime.
