We have few “older” full sets that are getting rare. The prices are a little higher and when they are gone, they are extinct in the Stores Inventory.
Where does the $ Go:
100% of the funds generated goes directly to the CTC Budget the year of the CTC. These funds enable us to keep the Registration Fees low years after year.
