[mr_palitoy]

Is that the Luke from the alternate ending were Vader blew up all the X-Wings?



Jason

 

[jaymassive619]

How much did that luke set you back in that condition?

I wonder what they thought when they sent it to the afa

 

[Bollux]

thats superb Marc! :lol:

 

[theguiltyone]

I got it from another guy who uses AFA a lot and we both agree that AFA should not have gone ahead and graded it in that condition.
When this was queried with them they said they receive MOCs in this condition "all the time".
They charged the usual amount on this occasion which i reckon proves a lot of peoples point about AFA in general.
AFA 30 = a grade of "Fair" in their book
AFA = a grade of "bollox" in my book.
