a few things..One I don't think it is smug to point out a fact; however you didn't say they were from the 70's you said the 80's :) some people need to read better before they comment!!! Two the earrings are still so cute and highly desirable because of how big the ET movie was. three I have fanned you, love them and wanted to know which was accurate. the post states that winner must pay shipping but your description states free shipping?? I would love to bid but I need to know that first...thanks for posting such a cool item. I don't recall ever seeing anything like them even when the movie first came out :) great auction.
