U grade piss takes

[Joe]

This all gets us to the end of the world thread! Greedy humans consuming for their own needs lol

Sure, two people get happy (one with a U grade the other with a nice box) but did anyone ask the Wampa?! LOL

 

[aussiejames]

"did anyone ask the Wampa?" I did. His mouth was moving but I couldn't hear what he was saying. He's stuck in this ******* clear box :lol:

One day all these toys will come to life , break out of the acrylic and **** in the owners mouths! ( or is that just wishful thinking lol)

 

[aussiejames]

"break out..." or turn to dust exactly 12 months after grading. EDIT I can see it now, the grading tag says "I will self destruct in 1 year"

I wouldn't be surprised if there is some AFA fine print that says "We cannot guarantee your toy will be safe in one of our cases"!

Then again their FAQ is full of **** , I quoted a few over on RS related to pricing and valuing lol

That Rulair94 really is something isn't he. :evil:

 

[aussiejames]

Chris will be your best friend once he gets that U grade sandcrawler done Paul has a U grade Bluesnaggle for auction- we will see it's "true" value in a few days.

"my loss is your gain" what a ****!

It's such a waste!

 

[aussiejames]

"my loss is your gain" I read that as: hobby's loss my gain

 

[weasel]

You beat me to it!
Those were my first thoughts when I saw that!
**** (Ruilar, not James)

 

[Darth Wensleydale]

I don't get it. Does U stand for? U've been done mate?

I think grading/casing boxed stuff is a great idea as it keeps easily damaged packaging safe for the future but what is the point of opening it when you don't know what the condition of the creature/vehicle is like inside? Most Wampa's go yellow. What are they going to do, open every ****** until they get a good grade? What a waste :roll:

That is exactly what they they do Simon!

Hence all the recent ebay auctions like one that had 300 Cardbacks with bubble still attached (but sliced by the afa) most in v good condition.

 

[plantman]

Well...the pic says it all.

 

[Joe]

LOL- That is the best I have seen! Nice spot! £600!! LOL

 

[weasel]

Bargain!

 

[Capetown]

A shame I already have a U90 Leia.

 

[Joe]

I have a U95! I think I should sell it and buy a house :lol: :lol: crazy money

 

[Capetown]

I would think you could buy a house in Romania from the proceeds of a U90 Leia Joe. And they'd throw in a cart and wagon for that price too!

 

[Joe]

Go smoke some more weed :mrgreen: If that was the case I would be happy to send the horse and cart over, I know you have always wanted one! :lol:

 

[weasel]

Do you get "Top Gear" in Romania Joe?
They were out in Romania driving on some road that Ceau?escu made. Bloody crazy road! Looked like a laugh to drive on though.

Yep we get it, it was quite a big thing here I remember people talking about it, I will have to watch it some time.

The road is called "Transf?g?r??an" and its quite a way from me but yes scary and crazy as ****!

 

[Joe]

Ok..well the forum won't let me spell it properly lol Transf?g?r??an or - Transfagarasan

 

[weasel]

Aye something like that! Lol
Unpronounceable to any non Romanian nationals.

Care of BBCiPlayer.

For anyone who doesn't get Top Gear in their country, it's actually well worth a watch. Great entertainment, even if your not a huge petrol head.

Well, it's not an U grade, but a piss take nonetheless.

[DarthStanley]

That's ******* ridiculous!!! :roll:

 

[aussiejames]

$795 for a AFA 95, $125 for a 90 !!!!!!!!!! Surely the difference would only be noticeable under microscope? The extra $670 (yep $670) is for :?:
