No, this is not a spam topic. This was published a couple of weeks ago but I haven't seen it in here.

 

That's today's exchange rate for 1 million pesos, which is the price of the entire Box y Lucha collection starting in 1963 (missing roughly the first 500 magazines). 2 beautifully bound old school looking books per year that would not look out of place on any classic book collection:

Box y Lucha has been struggling for a long time and this probably is a last minute resort to raise funds.

 

I thought 1000000 pesos was the "Gringo price" but Mexicans I know have been quoted that same price... this is the type of price that the Japanese collectors would have paid in the early 90s when the yen was really strong and they bought almost everything that they found in Mexico at ridiculously inflated prices.

 

If you have a crazy rich wrestling friend tell them to buy this! Hopefully somebody who may put this to good use (I wish Steve Sims was that crazy rich friend) and get the mileage out of it rather than a rich lucha collector who just wants to own this for bragging rights and will let it accumulate dust on a shelf until he dies and the children sell it on ebay, or simply bin the books. (I'm not joking. Some of the most prized Santo collection items were found in one of his wives' rubbish bins)
