Vectis Shipping Cases - joint bidding 6 needed.

[skywalker]

Yeah I'm with edd on the price £200 is my maximum,, and if they go for stupid money then so be it,, but it won't be me paying way over the odds for them.

If we win then great I'm over the moon, but if we don't then oh well at least we had a go...

Do I think they will go for more than we are willing to pay.?, most probably..... But do I think we stand a chance.?, absolutely..

I have a feeling 250 a pop is more likely TBH & in reality I'd be happy to push that far (inclusive of fee's) on a speeder & an X-wing, but I think I already missed the boat on the X wings.

Maybe draw up a 2nd list of those that want them & are willing to push the extra 50 on each, so if it goes over the 200 others are willing to pay then it goes to the 2nd list?, saying that I fear even at 250 each we may well get our noses shoved out of joint, I can see these reselling once graded at 600 to 800 each which is a huge draw for the serial graders/resellers

I'd do £250 maxium on the X-Wings (but not snowspeeders).

With regards to conditions of boxes, I've emailed Vectis asking if all are mint and sealed both ends.

As you say the sealed makes a BIG difference to me. Unsealed is worth alot less.

I do agree with this, perhaps conformation of these would be best... At the end of the day we are prepared to drop some serious money down on the table, so it would be worth Vectis to provide us with some extra detailed pictures.

One issue though...sounds like the X-Wing shipping box is still sealed one side...so I can imagine they aren't going to open this to check them.

No way! It's the risk we take, but pictures of the shipping case might indicate any damage to the boxes themselves.

I've posted pics, earlier in the thread...and from what can be seen they do look in good condition.

I would be in for 1 of each if people pull out.
Just PM me and I will be in

Guys, I think it's great what you're trying to do but you really shouldn't be discussing the price you're thinking of putting on these as I'm sure there are more than a few people after these items who may well be reading all of this.

Maybe you should talk about the price you're all willing to go to through pm's as someone else mentioned. I knnow we'd all love to think that everyone on here's got each others backs but I really don't think that's the case (hopefully only a few though.....you know who you are :evil: ).

Just my opinion and best of luck with it

Yes to be honest it was a throwaway comment in the Vectis thread and then ended up getting a bit out of control here I'm up for it but agreed let's take it to email (you can't do group PMs on here.) I also don't want to waste hours on it as it's a long shot anyway.

 

[talldroid77]

Could I be put down on these provisionally i.e xwing and snowspeeders. confirm in nxt day or so?

edit: saw them yesterday but v breifly as could not afford alone - they are nice v nice

 

[ldr]

So whats happening with this?

Should we get a group email going for all those on the list?

 

[edd_jedi]

Yes exactly let's not discuss in public any more as seems to have ruffled a few feathers. Everybody interested (in any of the items) PM me your email address and I'll start a group message.

Cool, PM me your email address

 

[edd_jedi]

Still missing a few addresses from the original list - will pass on to next in line if I don't hear from you today.

 

[indianawars]

Alright Edd, I didn't see this was up and running again, I thought people may have cooled off and backed out...

edit: email removed

 

[edd_jedi]

Thanks all, first email sent

Hi Edd

I had not seen your reply on the thread mate, should have sent everyone a PM nudge as life can be hectic & I have not managed to get on much of late.

I was on the list, please don't tell me I have been gazumped? as I am up for one of each & happy to go to 250 on each if needs be.

If you could please LMK

Thanks

Frank

PS just to confirm - I'm in!!!!
