I go to the Barry Potter toy fair in my home town of Buxton,but to be honest I've not seen any decent vintage SW for years.

Thinking of going to MEM at the NEC this time as I've missed the last two.

 

[stevemac1976]

I was looking at going to that as well.

When is it?

[stevemac1976]

Damn - if it is that weekend i dont think i will be able to go. I am sure i have some house party to go to for a friend that is moving back to the States. I will have to check with the misses.

Jezza,I 've noticed in the past that your location is Glossop,not a million miles from Buxton is it pal??

REALLY is a small world isn't it I work in Chapel at Morrisons supermarket,a yes a lot of pubs in Chapel,some of the young whipper snappers are always trying to get me out on nights out with them.

 

[jezza124]

yes know morrisons very well,done a lot of roofs on the high street,done a few in buxton aswell is it park rd near the opera house????

 

[Caswellbot]

Hey guys good thread. Ive always wanted to find a decent toy fair outside of Memorabilia :|

I go to Kempton toy fair and the Barry Potter one at Sandown but Ive gotta say there not a great deal of Vintage Star Wars at those.

Jim Stevenson is always at Sandown but I rarely have the funds to buy anything from him. Shame because he has some great stuff!

Chris.

 

[Bollux]

I only ever go to the Memorabilia one, be good to try another though!

Going to Italy in April I wonder if I'll stumble upon some Harbert in an old shop in Venice or Verona?

 

[stevemac1976]

The toy fair i went to today had very little SW stuff although there were loads of really cool vintage dinky cars. I may have to start a small collection of some fo those.
