    Do you think we are currently in a bubble?

    For me MOC’s are different as the majority of my collection probably around 90% of it was bought privately so none of those prices are recorded and I think that is the same for many other MOC collectors especially with rarer items, so although MOC’s increase in value over time they are largely...

    Do you think we are currently in a bubble?

    I have just joined a Comic Book Forum and they were discussing the rapid increase in prices in Silver Age Comics and one of the members suggested a sell off of Bitcoin and those investors putting their money into their passions which could be what is causing unpredictable gains in prices in...

    Do you think we are currently in a bubble?

    I think there is a lot of speculation going on in the loose market which is driving prices up, this could continue even after the Pandemic ends as speculation will only stop when prices start to drop which does not look like it is going to happen soon. Comics are rising rapidly and people are...

    Do you think we are currently in a bubble?

    I think it is important to remember that lots of people are not thinking straight at the moment due to the mental strain caused by the Pandemic, even if you have not been affected financially by the Pandemic most people have had their everyday life turned upside down with home schooling, long...

    Do you think we are currently in a bubble?

    I think there is a chance there could be a price correction in the future as most working people and even some of those that have been furloughed are in a position where they have more disposable income, I would imagine if things normalise and people are able to go on holiday or go to...

    Not sure if you ever lose the regret or the bug, I stopped collecting for 13 years and it still came back.

    I don’t think you have much choice in Vintage Star Wars as some items are not available in high grades so you have to take what is available which is different to comics and possibly video games as they are much more abundant and therefore people can afford to be picky.

    fett sw moc price guide

    Fantastic piece to own if you can afford one especially given the fact it’s Boba Fett on a Star Wars card, aesthetically it doesn’t get much better than that!

    It’s also why people dislike grading as they blame it for increasing prices.

    Vectis today- 9/3/21

    The value on a graded item will depend on the collector people into grading will pay significant premiums for 85 or 90 grades (sometimes called investment grade), as said above some will pay thousands more for a high grade. Some anti graders won’t pay anymore for graded pieces while others will...

    Has the pandemic changed your attitude to your collecting?

    It seems like people are focusing their money on what makes them happy Bigger House, Classic Car, Action Figure, Comic which makes sense given the depressing reality of all the restrictions, I added a new figure to my display and it gave me a real boost!

    Do you think Kenner prices are on the rise or are the increases down to lockdown? What was the condition like on the 21 back Fett?

    I guess I look at things differently to you as I see the cards and figures as variations to the debut MOC’s. I will take you up on the offer of more information and assistance, thanks!
