I wonder what I will find at the local car boot sale this year?

Looks like you did OK again, Steve. I went for the first time in ages on Sunday. Waste of time. An earless Jar Jar, Chancellor Palpatine, some Top Trumps and a SW Marvel canvas were all I could find, so didn't buy anything.

Hey guys, both were cancelled last Sunday due to "bad" weather. The bendy figures were from someone at the car boot they said they had some at home went last Monday not what I was expecting. The Naboo security guard picked up from a 2nd hand shop on Sunday.

Totally agree with Mike on this point and it was amazing when I went to FF one year and felt like I already knew most of the forum members that were there.

Not sure about that Ian guy though :D

Hey guys, hope your all well and had a good weekend. Picked up the ATST Driver figure and ROTJ book from a couple of 2nd hand shops yesterday. Car boots not great today. Two guys really annoyed me today, one who i've known for about 3 years considered a mate who sells figures etc said if he ever got any figures would save them for me. Saw him today and said "I had some the week you saw my wife here (did't know it was his wife, she said her husband had taken them to another car boot), I took them to another one you don't go too", thought charming nice to know who your mates are, said this is what I have left, tried selling me a bin, umbrella and the micromachines Mos Espa Base, said no will pass! 2nd one I was looking though a massive tray of cars etc, and this twat pushed in asking how much the items were, the guy selling said 50p each no joke must have been over £100 worth of items in it. After asking he walked off, I carried on going thorough and pulling items out, next thing the guys son said all this has been sold, was like who to and he pointed to this twat! Said hold on i'm buying the items i've already pulled out as I was here first. Paid for them as asked how much he has sold the lot for? His answer £20. Said "you have been ripped off there"! So wasn't happy, thought it just common decency to wait till someone has finished! 2nd one was even worse only picked up the C3PO, pin and keyring 30 min drive for practically nothing.

Hey guys, the couple I got the bendums from contacted me saying they had found some vintage figures. Went round and was pleased with the results. The no COO Greedo without a scar a variant never seen before.

Nothing at my local boot fair, well a bit of modern
But that's all

More than can be said about our local ones this weekend. First one was very poor just full of junk and crap and very small. 2nd one was even worse got there and there was 3 stalls, they didn't even bother charing please to get in, hung on for an hour and in total was 6 stalls and all were just rubbish and crap. On the plus side picked up these from a 2nd hand shop on Saturday so made up for it.
