I disagree, if you want to auction something rather than sell it for a fixed price in hope you will make more money, you should also have to take the risk that it may sell for less than you wanted.

I see what you mean, I suppose I was just thinking that not everyone is trying to screw as much as they can, they just hope to achieve a fair price but don't want a hundred quid MOC to go under £50.edd_jedi said:
Maybe a better idea would be the start price is limited to 50% of the expected market value.
Stormtrooper £7 start, Klaatu MOC £15 start and so on

It's awesome :lol: Jason Joiner & Jason Smith are really the same person & the whole scandal is really just a fake scandal so people can buy cheap PBP figures on cards :wink:
The sad thing is Aaron really does have a fantastic eye for detail with loose variants just some of his theories are wacky.

That guy always seems to get his comments across at the slightest whiff at a TT... he really does believe they are real and the scandal was a big hoax.... I wonder if he really is Toni in disguise...lol.

I have crossed paths with Aaron in the past over stuff ironically he didn't believe was real but is.
He is a bit of a conspiracy theorist I think, but he does spend a lot of time researching variants to the most minute detail. I wonder if that's why some of his theories are so highly strung.

So how does he explain the iron marks on the earlier ones? What about the lack of machine press mark on the back? That's just the tip of the iceberg. Nutter :lol:

I thought the TT was a hoax just like a Global Warming?
You telling me it's true, all of it?

I saw through that straight away, will it realise that price? Can't see it myself.

I tried to write a post in an attempt to address the several loose r2 pop-ups that are hitting £350+ in the last few days. Yes, you read that correct.
It's been great to see people that I have not got a clue who they are read it, like it and make some comments.
Some though... to say I genuinely begin to think that some people are just thick is close to the mark.
I have to say though that the unity between Jabba's Palace, Echo Base and Yavin has been good on this. All 3 groups are concerned about the reasons why prices are being driven up. Guys on all groups have sounded off.
I think it's very likely someone will set up a new group very soon. Someone who has been in the hobby for 6 months and is now an expert. I think we will see a lot of the flash in the pans migrate to the group to worship their new overlord. And good riddance.

I am genuinely at a loss as to who you mean Richard.
Not a "expert" on VCJ's?

vcjs .... sigh..... that'll probably the next figure going nuts. How long before one hits £2k loose?
Another r2 pop potf FS last night $550. Graded AFA85. Nice to see an r2 loose going for a more sensible £230 last night.

Which Leia blaster was it? The first 12, mint and complete seem to go for £80+. That's what I think in my head anyway. :lol:

The amount of ***** I see posted to justify the belief the moon landings were faked is laughable. People who clearly haven't got a clue about how physics, photography, etc... work but believe that the landings were faked because "You can't see the stars in the photos". :roll:edd_jedi said:
I have a friend on fb who used to be a colleague around 15 years ago. He's a really intelligent guy who's into "don't believe the lies from the media/government" in a big way, which is fine. He's also an engineer and has an exceptionally strong logical and rational mind. He's also into astrology. :shock:
