I noticed that some of the callers had thick New York accents, like Broklyn or something, but they all had different area codes. I looked up a couple of the area codes and saw that it was, in fact, NY, so I looked around on Craigslist in NY and sure enough found this ad:
new york craigslist > queens > free stuff
Free Star Wars collection

My wife says I need to grow up and get rid of my collection. I don’t have the heart to sell it so I’d rather give it away. I want my collection to go to real fans!!!!!!
All original figures in the original boxes.
The focus of my collection has always been Chewbacca. I’d like these items to stay together as a set. Best Chewbacca impression (I’m serious) gets the figures and the costume (with crossbow)
May the force be with you,
Please call as I don’t have access to personal email at work.

So I emailed they guy and hopefully he'll fix this oversight. In the mean time, I'll try to stay amused at people's sob stories about how "someone's in the hospital and it would really mean a lot" (seriously, i've had 2 of those already) but I have yet to hear any good Chewy impersonations...
