Nice one Edd, very lucky to get a table as they sell out so fast.

 

[Grant_C]

Looking forward to it

Those prices are crazy. Do you remember how much the Luke Jedi was hiding on the top right?

 

[edd_jedi]

No sorry I'm afraid not, that was on @LeeBullock's stall and it's not in any of my other photos so must have sold!

The crazy thing is I didn't sell a single carded figure all weekend at those prices, I even reduced them all on the last day

ah okay.

Hard to believe that these days!

do you remember how much you reduced them too?. do you still have any of them as they did not sell lol

sadly those days were before I could even start collecting too young!

 

[edd_jedi]

I think I knocked £5-10 off them all, but nobody seemed interested. The only things I sold were loose figures I think. No I don't have any of these left now, I sold them all over the next couple of years on forums and eBay.

Was that the year when you, me, Dave Tree and Lee Bullock all had a large table together?

 

[edd_jedi]

Yes that's the one!



Back on topic, as this is my first Echo Live, how does table selection work? Is it just first come first served on the day? It would be good to be next to somebody I know in case we need the loo or something!

 

[sith-smith]

Every time I've been, they have a table ready with your name on it.

 

[StarWarsFan]

Hope you have a good day

 

[Frunkstar]

Oh my goodness Edd, those prices seem crazy by today's standard, it's a real eye opener into just how much the goal posts have moved, I've actually been looking to add a carded Emperor figure for the side focus & when I set my mind on the idea I remember them being cheap, but that is no longer the case, shows just how long it's been since I bought a carded figure, I'm shocked you did not sell any.

Not sure if I'll manage this one, but I hope so, sure would be nice to meet you after all the years chatting.

You don't want to meet Edd, he's even more handsome in real life, so much so that you have to forgive him for being a spurs fan.

Joking aside though Frank, it would be fantastic if you were able to make it over - I'd certainly drag my sorry arse across to catch up!

 

[palitoyjunky]

Will be there, got my early bird pass a while back.

Sadly my lad has an operation on Monday, so I'm not hopeful. Unless I can chuck him in a wheelchair and skip the queues
