Looks like that Rebel soldier had a bit of a jaws incident.
I am afriad that the rest of your figure's aren't worth that much. You do have a Last17 Luke Poncho but he has Leia's poncho rather than his own - Lando also looks a bit weird wearing Yoda's cloak!
The carded figures and the Fett are certainly worth a decent amount of money and I am sure that there are a few people on here ready and willing to pay you some good money for them.

The Fett is a hard one to price, variant collectors can be a strange breed :wink:
I reckon sell it to Joe for the price of a Tri logo fett.

I wouldn't get to down - you should be able to make some very good money from the Ben and Yoda. Joe should also give you a fiar price for the Boba if he has already sent you an offer. If you lump all th figures and weapns together as one lot then I think you should get at least £40 as well. The ships I am afraid are probably not worth much more than the cost of posting them out but someone might be keen on a couple of beater mini-rigs and the Tie Fighter might get you a tenner

Joe said:Hey Martin, your loose Boba Fett is a harder to find Meccano version as well (it's the No COO version) (( COO means Country of origin - most figures are Hong Kong, but there are also China and Taiwan COO's as well))
I might be interested to add it to my loose Fett collection
It's worth more than most loose Fett's so I will let someone else value it as I wouldn't want to get a bargain or anything like that would I (cough cough jawa cough cough)
Keep me in mind mate
Joe i think u missed the point tho really didnt you a valuation thread is not a make offers thread is it??
A loose tri logo fett is 40 pounds with a gun u can pick a gun up for 3 odd pounds so if he is rarer than a usual tri fett maybe it would be worth more than 40.I belive all the values should be posted in the thread and not kept secret by pm etc and offers made by pm on valuation threads?Do you not see the problem that comes up here conflict of interest if you want to find bargins search car boots try get a bargin off ebay.But people posting on these threads want honest prices of what they have, This whole section of the forum is useless if not and is a bit underhanded imho.

This time around:
1. I didn't value this
2. I didn't offer anything
3. Go **** yourself
Really I can tolerate you bad mouthing me and my site in chat but don't start on the forum threads, unless I have done something to you personally?
Would you also like to take up your issue with people offering values to people in private with the rest of the forum, or just happy to keep putting me in the firing line? Because believe me, there are people that do it week in week out. (I have offered money on 2-3 items that people come to value here in the last few years on the other hand)
As for the Jawa, in a nutshell it's true I offered the guy below the amount the last one sold for (£54) but so did about 6 other people here, all genuine guys who are happy to shoot the **** with collectors, help out all day long (and I am not just talking valuations..) are they criminals now?
You know what, Shane said there was no problem during the thread and he knows that I offered once and once only, after that I continued helping him and didn't ask again but I still cleared the air with him in private afterwards and he still thanked me for help in valuing his other stuff.
BTW- if you ever want me to put up a special page for you on my "trisexual" site I would be more than happy to, you must love it so much to be nicknaming it
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Nothing wrong with making your interest known in a valuation thread in my opinion. It's common place and does no harm what so ever. Absurd.
The seller can and will still wait for his valuations before making any decision on how where or when he wants to sell his item.

Joe, everyone in the collecting community makes offers to a member via pm whether something has come up for sale, is merely on a valuation thread or just in someone's limelight and not for sale at all. Again, common place, completely normal and perfectly within every moral guideline we may wish to consider. Again, absurd to suggest otherwise.

LOL on the defence again i see, tri sexual was actually a compliment but yea ok what ever.I havent bad mouthed anyone i think u may need to re read.I think il be best leaving this forum as it seems you have plenty of followers and could never be wrong.This part of the forum is valuations so value the items fairly and out in the open.I watched the jawa go on ebay and it went for just over a 100 quid go figure LOL.Piece out and god help people comming here for honest advice as it seems you are a bunch of vultures/pack of wolfs/Chancers.I will be deleting my account after this as i dont like dishonestly and rudeness.Good night and have fun hope your morals catch up with you one day!
Edit to say love the ass lickers good luck guys

Just to say what regular, long standing forum members are painfully aware of- i will never back or stand up for anyone i think is in the wrong no matter whether we're "forum friends" or not. and likewise i will never hesitate to harshly disagree with someone for the same reasons. There have been many examples if this. I just call it like i see it. And try to be honest.
I think this one's pretty black and white tho if people actually read through this thread.

The disadvantage of the chat box being at the bottom of this forum is that whenever you sign in, you hear this frantic "clicking" noise through your headset/speakers, when you look down to see people bashing out funny nicknames, people (including yourself) being discussed and others egging people like yourself on and on telling you that "people lick ass because of what others have"in regard to how people defended me how can you not get up-****ing-set?
That's why I came along to your post the way I did, I hear some people talk about gossiping back shop talk and backstabbing members and they are the ****ing worst culprits!!
The same people that moan about people offering prices to sellers that come on here will happily post "awesome price" when someone says "hey I just got this Yak Face POTF MOC for 50p!!!"
I realise this is a valuations forum that's why whenever someone pops up and asks about something I either send them a completed listings link to do their own homework (that doesn't mean look for five minutes and instantly price your stuff- take as long as you need!) or tell them the price I sold/bought one for. There will always be times when people are interested in the goods on the table and make an offer, I can honestly say I have never come across ANYONE who has listened to the first offer and accepted, even a ****ing fish would take a minute to think about it.
You want this forum closed for dishonesty? Wtf is going on here? You might walk into that shop of yours that you keep buying from and find a Yak face for 10 quid and I bet you would buy it!! And come on here and say look what I got for a song!
If you want to post some well thought out way to deal with this section of the forum and get it moderated I think it would be a great idea, get Emiel and Weasel to be the only ones with access and they can value everything (bet they will love you for that!) but don't act like a prick in the chat and then come here starting stuff because believe it or not- I don't speak about anyone in private, not friend or enemy. If I don't like something on a thread I post in it as constructively as possible not build up the courage in chat with my mates to see what reaction I will get.

I agree fair offers should be given tho that is a different point. There's also nothing wrong with trying to get something a little cheap. When someone comes here for valuation i do think we have a responsibility as a forum to all act as honestly as we can and that has nothing to do with pm offers or expressing interest in an item on a valuation thread. It's down to each individual person.
It was not Joe that gacve the valuation on the Fett so again, doesn't explain Chewy's reaction which was aimed entirely at Joe... for expressing interest in a figure, nothing more, which i maintain is see no problem with and will do the same myself if and when an item comes up that i may want.
