Cool. How much cash do you think the upgrade will require

My best friend actually just sold his LV/BLNR and a few others to consolidate and upgrade. He now has a completely gold collection WG/RG and YG.

He said it would have been hard financially to do this individually without taking advantage of the current hype.

If I had any SS pieces currently I would be flipping all of them imho.
Absolutely true.
Nice way to earn some solid profit.
