2 should still be most comic shops....1 will you back about £15 now
Should have posted this up a while back! 
Trilogo "QC" sticker cardback.
These black and white QC stickers have shown up on Palitoy ROTJ cards and Trilogos over the years and while there's no official word on them yet (and I've definitely been cautious about getting over excited about them in the past) I've done a bit more digging recently and it does look like they could well be legit quality control examples.
Unlike most of the QC stuff that usually comes from ex-employees, these stickers have all been found on used cardbacks or on MOC with price stickers so they were never archived or anything. Probably just a spot check and put straight back into a shipping case.
I really do hope that at some point in the future some more evidence surfaces to back that up. I've got some more people to speak to about them so fingers crossed.
I have to say a huge thanks to Lee (Palitoy78) for this as he sent it to me for FREE for my focus a little while ago! Very generous of you mate - Thank you!

Very nice addition to the focus Joe and good going Lee, nice to see evidence that there is still some free love left in the community (do you have a sister?) 8)

Wowzers! Lots of highest of high quality pieces on here.
Managed to pick this up after much searching. It's only the second 'Free Coin Offer' TIE Pilot I know of. Waiting to hear what back from a collector about the back of his card.
This one is a 65 Back.

Joe,
No worries mate. Im so glad its in your collection with all that other great stuff.
Great Palitoy cards Gary, and those comics are great. It seems as though the vintage toys are something that Disney are going to use to their advantage,.
Grant- that's a gorgeous coin offer TIE, I love those stupid stickers!
Lee- Really can't thank you enough, I agree with Marc that it's nice to know there are still people out there that are just happy to help get things where they are appreciated. This forum has some quality members that's for sure. I owe you one mate!

Personally I think that was a bit punchy price-wise. If I was selling it, I'd have it one here for about £70 plus P&P.
The box looks badly worn and it's missing some parts, these you should be able to get ok though. At least it had the training ball.
I sold my complete, almost mint Palitoy ESB falcon a few weeks ago for £100 on here.
However, if you're happy with it mate, that is the main thing.

Picked this up last week. Missing a couple of bits but came with some spares so I'll hopefully be to trade for the parts I need. Box is a bit tatty but I'm happy with it for the price I paid 8)

It's usually the R2D2 that's missing and it looks like you got 2 for your money, nice deal

These are two of the most important pieces to hit my 'Special Buy' focus in a long time. Huge thanks to Lewis for the Ewok and Iain for the B-Wing. Also need to thank -Neil (Jackabina) for his great packaging and the fact the B-Wing arrived in the same immaculate condition. These are both HTF in this good condition, and up until a month or two back i never knew the Ewok existed. These are truly special pieces, and im so thankful to both you guys for sorting them for me. The B-Wing came from the collection that Iain bought from Timbo, and i feel a bit gutted about that but at least it stays in the Uk where it belongs
Will update with a whole new focus thread over the next few weeks. I started this focus to highlight the great Palitoy UK years etc and i know there are a few more pieces out there. The Falcon is a toughie, but the Xwing is a right rocking horse poop and the three POTF packs are relatively easy but expensive.
Enjoy.
