Palitoy Cantina

[SublevelStudios]

I snagged this last night, wanted one for ages and this has been the best condition one that I've seen for sale (minus the doors) - good deal?

The box looks great - so hard to get one which still has it's shape. I would say a fair price but it is a rarish playset.

I think you did Ok...but finding those doors can be a pain in the ass.

I'm fortunate enough to have the doors with mine but need the tape.

I really had to force myself to pull the buy it now trigger, but I figured if it ran on the auction it would probably end up north of that figure given how ebay can be these days and had no idea how long I'd have to wait for another in a box as good as that to come along.

Did you find a set of doors for yours Todd?

The quest for mine begins...

Ok...I await the beatings...but in this instance.....I would suggest finding a similar material and making a copy of the tape. The odds of finding the actual tape for the door hinges is impossible.

Your cantina is 50% less draughty than mine then mate! If by any coincidence I happen across 3 doors, you can have the 3rd

This arrived yesterday - the box is REALLY good, much better than in the photo, no crushing, hardly any ware just some warping of the end flaps. Glad I bought it now

Very nice well done.

Sound. It's also nice (but rare) when the item ends up being better than described.
Have you got all the Palitoy playsets now?

It really was a nice surprise - sooooooo many times I've bought items off feebay described as 'mint' or 'excellent' only for them to arrive in C7 condition at best!

This is my first Pali Playset, just missed out on a Land of the Jawas couple of days ago, boxed but missing a few bits and one of the flaps was torn. Went for £160 in the end. It's high on my wants list along with a Pali X-Wing (SW) and Landpseeder.
