Dallas Vintage Toys have a 20% discount day.

I'm not sure if any of you gentlemen have been on http://www.dallasvintagetoys.com/ But, they are having a 20% discount day...
I've brought plenty from them over the years and I do consider them as one of the top US dealers. Hopefully some of you may pick up a bargain while this sale is on.

Is that Neinhast? If so,stay away and id go against advising anyone to go there.

What have you bought from him?

 

[indianawars]

I cannot speak of ever having a bad experience with them, but I'm quite surprised others have... Back when I collected loose graded figure (I know, don't judge me on that) They upgraded a couple of them to 90 grades when I ordered 85's. I've also picked up a few Raiders of the lost ark MOC's that all came with new free star cases. I feel quite disappointed with them if they've messed other folks around.

Just as an aside to the discussion on the seller, any thoughts on this one:

http://www.dallasvintagetoys.com/starwars1983rotjpalitoymocukg75r2-d2sensorscope.aspx

They've called is a Palitoy R2 Sensorscope. It's not, it's a Kenner 77 back. It's then got a Marlowe's price sticker on it (UK) which is fair enough (well known Kenner cards were sold in the UK) but it then has a large "Palitoy" address sticker over the card and over the price sticker. Anyone seen on of these before? Sale or return stock being returned?

If it wasn't quite as high a price for an R2 Sensorscope (even with 20% off) I'd have it as an interest piece but it's anout £135 before shipping in a not particularly great grade which seems steep, even with that odd sticker.

Those stickers come up a bit. Imported and distributed through palitoy I believe. The sticker is normally on the back though, as they will have wanted it to cover up the Cincinnati address. Perhaps it's a transplant.

It's not a palitoy though. It's a Kenner distributed by palitoy in the UK.

Cheers Ben. Given it's over the shop price sticker I suspect you're right and someone, for whatever reason, has moved it.

This guy has been around for years, but there has been a lot of grief in the past. Just keep an eye on anything you receive.

Just a "couple" more incidents to read about here..http://forum.rebelscum.com/t922299/#post15356919

Rest assured with threads as recent as 2 years ago, he hasn't turned over a new leaf. It's entirely down to the individual as to whether or not they buy from someone like this though.
