Yesterday my girlfriend surprised me with a gift, she had found some star wars figures with some weapons in a shop in copenhagen.

Wow, this is the very first time that any girlfriend have bought me any vintage star wars items, so I must admit I was very surprised :shock:

She was very curious about if she had paid to much for them or if she had done a great deal so she told me what she paid for them. In uk money she had paid £27 for them, I must admit I told her that it was to much. I told her between £7 and £14 would more have been the correct price to pay for them, but again I do not know what the weapons is worth and what it is for :? She was a little bit surprised that she had paid to much because she thought it was cheap.

I am not allowed to give them away, sell them or trade them :lol: as she say what you get from your girlfriend you keep :lol: lucky me that I collect variants so maybe there is some variants between them that I do not have or maybe I am so lucky that I do not have any of the variants :D

What do guys think did I value the figures correctly ? :?

I don't think you're far off in your valuation. It's a shame none of those weapons are vintage, otherwise your girlfriend's price would have suddenly become very good! :-)

Nice to read that you agree with the value :D yes it is a shame with the weapons. But I am allowed to sell the weapons because they are not vintage :lol:

thanks, yes I am also very happy that she bought them for me :D but I will not keep the weapons, I am allowed to sell the weapons because they are not vintage :D
 
That's right, you better get an expensive special rotating display shelf just for these. :lol:

Hold her tight and never let her go. :D

The low value is about right, the weapons unfortunately no value really, nice that she's bought them for you, you never know she might catch the bug too. 8)
 
Well done mate. She's a keeper for sure :D
Must be something in the air as my other half went and bought something I found on ebay and wanted badly. I'm just waiting to see what she's bought or planning on buying now :lol:
 
Just be greatful she is not trying to SELL all of your vintage Star Wars :lol:

Yes she is a keeper and also a toy collector so she understand me. But she is not a star wars collector.

Sounds fantastic, there is maybe something in the air. Let us know later what she bought :D

You sound like your meant for each other, special.

Yes, I also think that we are meant for each other, I must admit I do not know many collectors who have a girlfriend that also collect toys.
So I guess I am lucky :D

:lol: my girl friend also collect shoes, but she do not care about they are expensive, the cheaper she can get them the more happy she is. But I am also lucky that she collect toys, I do not remember all the toy she collect but I know she collect Schleich, barbie, anime manga figures, disney figures and puzzles :D

Does she not know where to look for a 1984 Barada or something Lars? :lol:

No, I don't think she even know barada or maybe if there was one then he was sold. She told me there was another customer in the shop that talked like he was an star wars expert :lol: but I do not know the shop or where she bought them. The only thing I know is that she bought them in a shop that sell used toy etc. etc. in copenhagen.

I have thought about printing a list to her with pictures of all the figures even barada 1984 :lol:
