Vectis Dec 2015

[Palifan]

Looks like another near complete set of 12/20 back Palitoy. I'm thinking the Death Star with shipping case will go a bit higher than the recent ones....the battle begins

can you get the full list up without changing the number for each item!?

 

[stormcab]

Wicked little trick there. Thanks.

No and Some of the numbers are out of sequence. It's just a nice preview. I think the main catalogue might go live tomorrow.

 

[TrisCompany]

Vectis don't want us to see their catalogue yet, unlucky we just hack it. Love it

Serious question - aside from if you're setting up an actual museum, what is the appeal of the trade boxes? I was trying to work out who I could give the box to if I won the ds, because I don't think it would get displayed in my collection!

 

[currymonster6290]

me ive started collecting them but only have 2 palitoy 1 cliro and 4 kenner
and 3 collector case boxes! bit sad yes but the kenner ones do look quiet cool
stacked up

 

[maxf]

Not sad at all mate, we're all different - I think the kenner ones are a bit cooler than the palitoy ones; at least they have a logo and some different text. The Palitoy ones seem to just be generic boxes with a tiny sticker. If I bought one, I'd probably get home one day to find crockery packed in it, or it cut up to use for something else!

In fairness, I'm in a London flat, so space is a bit of a premium - you guys with more space can rightfully view things differently.

Max, No problem I will take it off your hands if you get stuck with it, Im in London often so I can collect..good luck with the ds mate.

 

[andy x-wing pilot]

Wow
what a list of items for sale.

 

[SublevelStudios]

This is the best one yet IMO, some great stuff and for me, this has to be star of the show:

 

[JimboUK1979]

That is ace Mark, first time I've seen one of them.

 

[edd_jedi]

huge amount of good stuff, agreed probably the best yet. Considering taking the day off to go there in person

 

[jedisearcher]

Nice mix of Palitoy & Kenner, Graded and Ungraded and lots of duplicates as well. Gonna be some skint collectors before Christmas, especially if you collect graded Tri-logos

 

[Hothrebel]

Re mortgage time !!!!

 

[TrisCompany]

Tri-hard with a vengeance. There are literally dozens of amazing items.

 

[SublevelStudios]

It's my daughters 3rd birthday on the 8th so I won't be able to make it and doubt I'll be able to book a phone line - that'll teach me to have unprotected sex at the beginning of March again.

How do you find leaving bids on the website? I've heard so many negative sides to bidding this way.

Wow Max, that's quite an ambitious purchase there, a whole box of 12 back's.
Out of curiosity what sort of price would this sort of thing command?

To answer your question regarding the appeal to the trade box, some like to collect them and some people such as myself need item's like this for research purposes. Would be a great addition for a Palitoy researcher like myself.

Bidding on the Internet is your easiest option.

 

[wrighty]

I have previous bid online and won, no issues other than the extras afterwards!!
