    Given that Mr Gold (and his value on ebay) has hit the mainstream media so the likelihood of just strolling by and finding him is quite low. Store employees are ransacking boxes before they hit the shelves in hope they can make some easy money. (I wouldn't have believed it if I didn't see it happening at Target myself)

    That said apprently he's pretty easy to identify in package. Mr Gold is sealed in a plastic bag within the normal foil packaging. That means you'll be able to feel that all of his bits are bundled together.

    Oh wow, consistently finishing around $700 - $800. Yikes. Did they ever announce what the rough distribution was for him? 1 in a 100,000 or something?

    Don't know about that. As Sifun said, there are 5000 produced, but at what % they're distributed compared to regular figures is anyone's guess.

    I'm not bothering feeling for Mr.Gold unless I can see the box is freshly opened. I spent 10min feeling up a box in Myer only for one of the staff to say someone had gone through the box and found the Mr.Gold already. Not wasting my time again unless, as I said, I believe the box is untouched.
