2007 Dream Team Auction @ MagicMeet Previews!

[mini-V]

I want the wind chimes, at least one snow globe (there are several to choose from and I'll take any of them) the King Mickey and the other Mickey figure that was pictured earlier. I'm not sure what would cost me more; a ticket to fly from London to PA or bidding on everything that has caught my eye. Cheers everyone for a donating such great items, and for the dream team for putting the items together.
