Cant wait to find out what she paid either :)

Haha!

You'd have to think no more than a tenner and that would be so amazing :D would love to know too.

There's a thread for this kind of booty find, forget what it's called now.

2 minutes later and I've found it, why not revive the thread with your good fortune :)

June, basically in the summer people rock up to a field in their car full of random gear from around there house to sell, usually on Sundays. I think you have swapmeets which are a bit similar?

Blanton ...lucky boy

Jesus .....walky thing in box :D awesome stuff....it's still out there


June. A car boot sale is a Sunday market usually in a field or parking lot where people sell their stuff they want to get rid of out of the car boot (trunk)

I picked up some loosies for 50 p each the other month at a car boot, they were beaters, but one was quite nice, incomplete yoda

So you can still pick up bargains

But if your M I L has your back, well you can't go wrong :D

Banton - wow that's a great find, really pleased for you. And in such great condition! It's such a buzz finding stuff like that because 9 times out of 10 at these pace you come away empty handed...

Just won this one on ebay (seller's photo) Pretty pleased as I missed out by $5 on a 12-back Leia a few minutes earlier.

I'm getting my seller to send straight to the AFA for grading... no idea of what the little fella will get but he looks quite nice to me :)
