[QUOTE="_Lee_, post: 558823, member: 418"] Good post Edd I'm also surprised at the value that some recent carded figures make. The likes of POTF2, Episode 1 etc still go for next to nothing but more recent figures go for insane prices like the one below. [ATTACH type="full"]180672[/ATTACH] Collecting is definately changing and vintage has certainly slowed down, but I blame that partially on Facebook. I think vintage is due to crash and its been waiting to happen for months, if not years. The sequels obviously brought out more crap that is already losing money. All these people rushing to go buy Empire magazine with the Kylo action figure a few years back for over £100 is proof of that, as you can get them for next to nothing now. The market is saturated and the only areas that make real money nowadays is trading cards, autographs and replica props. Just do a search for trading cards and you will see what I mean, a vintage Luke number went for a big amount recently some for even more than the one below. Trust me, trading cards are the way to go and invest nowadays, as is Lego [ATTACH type="full"]180673[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
