   From: dahoov2@cox.net   
      
   Swee Lim; only a couple in exstance (he only ever signed for two   
   people).  I'll fork over my Revenge of the Jedi Sweatshirt and the   
   signed card for 5 thousand and possibly the letter that came with it.   
   He will never sign again and this is one of the rarest things people   
   ever coveted in my collection.  I'll sell the other two sweatshirts he   
   gave me for 500 each (non SW but from other films he worked on); worn   
   by him...   
      
   Want the first ever Kiera Knightley index cards she ever signed?   
   Email me ... make an offer and I'll consider.   
      
   Also, Harrison Ford for 250.00 and Carrie I'll sell my CII photos as a   
   set of four for 500   
      
   (frustrated person willing to ditch entire collection now for the   
   right price).
