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

[StarWarsFan]

I never find anything in charity shops, good haul

I know the feeling.

A mate of mine who owns a local shop for local people told me a regular of his went into the charity shop next door to his shop and found amongst a basket of various figures an Amanaman vintage figure...............50p !!!!!!!

Why do I never find such bargains

******* hell lucky sod

Toy fair sunday and all been well starts again on the 15th

 

[StarWarsFan]

Didn't go in the end money issues

 

[StarWarsFan]

First one cancelled like every ******* thing atm

 

[jayjedi]

Fortunately the car boots are all go and no one seems to care about a certain virus, I did find an EV9 D9 last year and an Amanaman for 2 pound each, both vintage but one of EV9 D9's arms was blue tacked on, but its great apart from that and the Amanaman's staff was a little shorter than it should have beenit was an extra 50 p for the weapons!!!

 

[jayjedi]

But its not the best thing I have bought, I picked up a Fiery plush toy with Velcro fasteners from Labyrinth for a pound and it sold for over 215 pounds to a nice man in the states.

AGreed, our large local ones all announced postponement yesterday and stated they'll reassess in June/July

Went to the Bolton antiques fair the other week. Couple of hundred stalls. Just one loose Lando Skiff.

I did see some nice Golly badges, character Corgis (muppet and magic roundabout). Rarely see anything at antique fairs. More luck with car boots

Great haul, looks like some fun days ahead sorting through that little lot.

Advanced Hero Quest 8) Nice. Is it complete? I hear they go for a pretty penny

 

[Sundancer Squadron]

Just finished another 16 hour shift so not had much chance to look and give it all a good detailed contents check but I'm sure it is. The wear on the boxes seems to be just that, most of the contents I have seen so far are untouched hardly played with if at all. Tomorrow I'm off at last so ill have a play, buy your right they do seem to go for a reasonable amount...

Now, I only ever had the normal Hero Quest, not the advanced one so not really sure whats what, so it will be new'ish to me.

Cheers mate, was only £4 100% complete. Agree anything to keep our minds occupied away from the C-Virus expecting Nemesis and Mr X to show up any moment.
