I think you found it. Those must be the magic plugs that will allow you to win every contest and pull off the impossible freestyle routine.

Maybe it's because he's selling over 250 of them.

I am sure that is what it is. I was just having a little fun.
That is still over $18.00 each.

At the Toledo show this year I saw a gentleman in his golden years I would say at least mid 70's pay $200 for a old cox .049 and then $50 for the old glow heads for it .I was amazed at the money he spent on this old stuff.I think it reminded him of his youth.
