I see an opportunity here. Hell, offer 'em $20 for the stickers & tell 'em you'll give 'em another ten spot for the "sticker mount". Or- Maybe buy a shiney POS from a hock shop for $40 & offer 'em a fresh "sticker mount" in trade for the filled up one. :) If you get it a little GOOF OFF will make the stickers all come right off of there I betcha. /\/\/ | ||
