[pizzathehutt]

still overpriced but had lots of star wars bits, he had:

loose at-at complete £75
loose rebel transport £65
r2d2 phone 90s i think £175
luke stormtrooper £85
loose complete rebo band £45
carded palitoy power droid £500
just a few prices that i noticed

he had plenty of loose figures including last 17s and a few badly done recards that he said he was doing cheap but i wasnt interested, oh i was also drinking a pint from the market and he wouldnt let me in with it at first.

Ha! The 20 back PD has been opened and maybe even resealed-can't rem :roll:
However it used to b priced at £600 so at least the price is going in the right direction :lol:

He literally just sells Junk! I did a post on here from when I lived in Kentish Town around 2 years ago. I nipped down and took some pics he had ROTJ Beater Ewok cards for £40 beater figs with the wrong weapons or Repros. Not to mention some of his other stuff. Pure garbage but not as bad as the movie store or whatever it's called down by Leicester square £49 for a Fett with Rubs and no weapon and that was in the sale hahaha.

Believe it or not that man used to clean up every wk with vintage SW back in the mid-late 90s! B4 eBay/Internet kicked off, b4 AFA existed
Days long gone when we really got butterflies in our stomachs queuing to get into the local toy fair because we knew not was inside and those events were more of less our only source of vintage

Wow, Dave sounds like a legend. :roll: :roll: I was just thinking after looking on ebay how so much fun of collecting has gone since ebay & evan more so since AFA I think. So many items just buy it now and overpriced. Don't get me wrong still enjoy collecting. Just tough going. :lol:

 

[mr_palitoy]

I stopped visiting him years ago as he was sucking my joy for the hobby out of me with his dour disposition and mice eaten MOCs.

Does he still have his yellow knackered TIE. That used to be for sale at £45 in around 1999/2000 - it was there for a couple of years at least

not that i could see, he said there was also a loose x-wing somewhere behind some crap, you couldnt swing a mouse in that place, infact all you can do is walk in and turn your head.

he has a big sign outside with 'please do not touch any items'

we chatted for 10minutes and in that time he sold some new looking cybermen figures and he asked about 4 people 'can i help you?'

whenever i go there always someone buying something yet all his stuff looks like its been sat in the same place for years collecting dust.

i can remember him showing me a carded boba fett 2 christmases ago which was 750, dunno if hes sold it?
