AFA 'my arse'

Think this should be a new thread - post all the daft items that people now think are suddenly worth silly money because they have been graded.

I'll start

£158.00 for a bog standard loose Luke Farmboy that very best you would pay £30 ungraded (and I've bought as nice for a tenner)

£316.00 for a nice Yak - you can pick one up loose any day for £75

For that sort of money you could have bought nearly all of Edd's 12 back MOC set :shock:

This makes no sense either:

I managed to buy a loose two tone stitch Jawa for £5 from the show!

I doubt you will get a U grade for it though.

Back to the topic, I've yet to have it explained to me why because someone has put a grade on it the value goes up exponentially. Plus the whole thing is flawed as a Trilogo 85 is not the same as a POTF 85 plus an 85 now might well not be an 85 in 5, 10, 12 years time.

I would think they would struggle to find a plastic case big enough !

Or someone brave enough to inspect it close up!
