Think our resident Jawa collector has put an offer in on this one - nice piece but worth nowhere near £8K

Oh, and its not a U grade (they are reserved for loose)

Hi mate.

This has been mentioned in another thread here - http://www.starwarsforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=16686

I would never pay that much, not even if I was very rich.

Always amazes me how much these can go for as they exist in the hundreds :shockobviously 90 grades are not common) However I can see someone paying 6-7K because of that 90 grade :!:

Falcon looks stunning but over priced being ungraded :!:

Glad I got my example 15 years ago for 3.1K less than this one

26 AFA 90 VC Jawas (220+ graded VCJ's) - which is a lot compared to many others that are far rarer. No idea how many UKG ones there are. No ones gonna pay £6k+ let alone 8k. Bare in mind there is only 1 (total) AFA graded GDE Jawas (afa 75) and they run about £1.5k. Shows how much a false myth affects an items desirability and therefore its price.

I offered £4k (which was more than it's worth) - he turned it down, and then later came back to me seeing if I was still interested and he got a resounding no from me. And glad I said it.

26 90s :!: Haven't checked the old pop report for a long time! That is a fair few 90s out there!

Still wouldn't surprise me if someone paid well over the odds, they pay thousands for examples that exists in the hundreds :!: :!:

With things like this I wonder whether the person is paying the money for the figure, or the number?

Ultimately if on display, would the Card look any better as a 90 than it would as an 85?

Totally agree.

Id be happy with a 30 if I could find one, whichever way I look at it it's still a MOC vc jawa - number means nowt to me
