12 back prices finally getting crazy?

[theforceuk]

After finishing my Kenner 12 back collection last year I have been keeping an eye on the price of them. Found this 12 back Han Solo yesterday AFA 60. Unrealistic price some might say but if the seller gets close to the buy it now price it's more proof that the price of 12 backs has gone through the roof in the last 2 years.

Yeh it's prob a bit over priced being an AFA 60 but it is a large head Han on a 12 back card which commands a bit more of a premium than the small head.

I do agree prices have gone up considerably in the last few years.

Prices are mad. Although I think the market will be flooded when Ep 7 comes out!

I hope he uses some of the money to invest in a new camera :lol:

I wonder why the card got a 60 and why there is no picture from the backside....

I suspect that the POP may have been taken off with a scalpel. At least, thats what I thought might be the case.

Their's some marks going across the front of the card to the left of his head which might be on the case it's hard to tell. I brought a luke x-wing with the pop taken neatly of the back and they graded it AFA 70 would have been 85 without that flaw tho. This wont sell for anywhere near the asking price seller is on another planet. I guess you could say it's worth what the seller is willing to except for it. :roll:
