[QUOTE="Snaketibe, post: 490756, member: 7379"] Here's another listing from a seller that's clearly high as a kite: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Rare-Star-Wars-Vintage-Kenner-Speeder-Bike-c9-Shadows-of-the-empire/223123229399 Yours for just $99 + $21 shipping :roll: OK, for starters, yes it's Star Wars, but NO it's not vintage! Is it really that difficult to understand the difference? Secondly, it's about as rare as hydrogen. And thirdly, just because it's Star Wars doesn't mean it's worth a fortune, you imbecile. I could buy about 5 of them for that price! However, the listing goes on to give a description of the item, so perhaps that will justify the price tag. I copy and paste it below exactly as it is written on eBay: "A is: Vintage Star Wars Speeder Bike Shadows of The Empire C9 or More Vehicle is in excellent condition. Aware of some action figures variations can be a holy grial. Owed to the fact that can be Tri-Logo, Kenner, Palitoy, Lili Ledy. Made in different countries. Please do research for more details. (I bought the figures and vehicles that I am selling just for their c9 - c10 condition) :)" So that explains it then. The good news is that the action figure might be a 'holy grial', whatever that is, plus the fact that apparently crappy modern SOTE Swoop bikes can even be made by Palitoy! And there was me thinking the company folded years ago! I am however rather fond of the Niagara of irony to be found in his advice, 'Please do research for more details' :lol: [/QUOTE]
