    Capital Gains Tax

    I see they've also massively reduced the personal capital gains tax allowance down to £3k so even if the collection is tax liable, this won't help out by much either. They're really going all in on screwing the everyman for tax aren't they.

    Capital Gains Tax

    The problem with doing this is the business will own that part of the house so selling up will be very difficult!

    Farthest From Xmas 2023 is going to be the best in Years!!

    I’m afraid I can only make the Sunday and for how long will depend on the patience of the lad. I’m quite pleased I’ve managed to get him to recognising about 25 vintage figures which had just about doubled his vocabulary. Hopefully he can see them all!

    What an amazing homestretch for 2023 Gary!

    R2D2 Green lightsaber

    You max your sales price if they’re graded but it all depends on condition, if they’re rough it might not be worth it. Post some pictures and we’ll be able to help. If you sell on facebook or eBay there is also a small risk an unscrupulous buyer could swap the sabre or cape for repro and claim...

    Awesome miscard Gary. Palitoy QC already taking the day off before they get to work on trilogos!

    Thanks for all the likes lads, just like old times! @lejackal i can highly recommend going down the popy route, I think they’re still pretty affordable when you compare them to their moc counterparts. And you don’t need to worry about a yellow bubble

    Well it’s coming up to nearly two years since I‘ve bought anything but I’m very happy to add a couple of Popys to the collection today. Thanks for the heads up @scooternick

    That’s a lovely story Andy, what a top lad your mate is but it’s certainly gone to a well deserved home.

    Acrylic Case Damage?

    Another thing to be wary of is making sure you have the right case for the figure. I mistakenly put a trilogo in a regular case and scratched the bubble on the recess where the removable bottom part sits

    this has to hurt

    POTF Anakin was released in Australia and Canada (I think) only so those being smaller markets than US and Europe meant much fewer were produced. Same with Yak. The fact it’s such a **** figure you’d think there would be 1000’s of them warming pegs in the 80’s though

    Vectis today

    Is that the going rate these days? I was the underbidder on one in 2021 which went for £900. That was in far better condition but ungraded.

    Great display Colin but get a cover or you’ll be forever dusting them off!

    The forum is silent

    One thing that differentiated this forum against other in the early days was how accessible it was to new members. There was never any condescending over "stupid" questions and everyone was always friendly and keen to help. A lot of the old guard have moved on but just looking at those who've...

    Recent Ebay Sales

    Those prices seem way too high. Are they sold listings or BIN? Also are the Mocs graded?

    Congratulations Lars, that’s a fantastic haul. Your perseverance with these always amazes me

    Alternative Y-Wing or my False Memory?

    I don’t believe so either. The Y wing was a late addition to the line so it wouldn’t have had the opportunities to undergo any revisions and by that time Palitoy weren’t cutting corners like with the xwing. There is an exceedingly rare version that I believe was only available in Ireland but as...
