Yes i agree, no way is that a 75.

I Love those palitoys, but my wallet wouldn't :mrgreen:

[Ron]

It does look good only thing realy letting it down is a price sticker has been removed.

Ron,

You could take a gamble and open the AFA case carefully and send it back to AFA to see if gets an AFA 80.
I think it could stand a chance easily.

Cheers,

Grant.

 

[Ron]

might be worth a try grant

 

[Darth Wensleydale]

Ron, I wouldn't do it. AFA would just grade it as a 75 again. If there is any significant tear to the front of the card the most it will ever get is a 75.

The way AFA grade isn't based on the average of the three grades. In this case it would have been an 80 or 85 without the flaw but the fact that it has the tear automatically limits the overall grade it can achieve to 75. Its just the way they do things

 

[Ron]

You could be right there Simon as the card has a small rip at the top. They would just grade the card a 75 again. Am happy with it am not planning selling it

 

[Josh]

Yeah I didnt notice the tear at first I doubt it would grade higher its like a cracked bubble just the slightest split makes them grade 60 overall no matter how good the card and figure are!Well thats been my experience anyway!

 

[Grant]

I never noticed the tear either.

Cheers mate.

Grant, :mrgreen:

 

[20backdPb]

If you are not planning on selling it Ron, just be happy with the item. Like you said it's another off your list.
Apart from the tear which is very small, it looks like a very nice example.

 

[Ron]

Yeah am happy with it and am not planning selling it. And am happy with the price i paided

Awesome Palitoy cantina. I've always liked how the picture on the box has a star field background instead of the bright orange on the Kenner one.
