Vectis SW Extravaganza (so they say)

Have they added the correct Boba Fett picture yet?
I imagine if not it will be this week, I wonder what the problem was, as all other photos were OK?

Still not up yet but what makes it crazy is that there is already a current bid of £4k with no actual pictures of the item?? :LOL:

I emailed them and had no reply and that was at the start of this week.

I'm surprised they didn't get it graded for the seller. Some of the bubble marks on a few cards look like heat damage, perhaps an attic. I'm wondering what the bubble will be like on this, I can't see why the picture isn't up, as they must have seen it to give a description 🤔
edit I think the Fett has been removed.

Well, almost all the 'vintage' stuff is well outside my wallet size - but I have got a couple of bids in on things - doubt I'll win though - never do :)

My guess could be a number of reasons, new lot number for when it arrives to the place, damaged during transit there, could not agree on estimates or commissions issues. Might come up on a future auction.

Yeah a lot of the stuff looks like its come from overstock, multiple of items which are similar mixed in with some high end stuff that people want to sell.

Will be interesting for sure.

Just to update, had an email stating that the Boba Fett has been removed from the sale.

Wonder why it was removed ? 🤔
 
Well - predictable I won nothing today> and very annoyed at this.
I bid on this lot: https://www.vectis.co.uk/e007-lot-1043773-hasbro-star-wars-attack-of-the-clones-3-3/4-action-figures
Which I think sold for £120 or £130, (I went £100).

And now the winner has the lot on Evilbay for £380.... WTF - even using the Vectis image: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/387869511932?_skw=attack+of+the+clones&itmmeta=01JJQ8AH7PN7DY4NJYSY55T170&hash=item5a4ed310fc:g:xbYAAOSwC-NnmQ5r&itmprp=enc:AQAJAAAA0HoV3kP08IDx+KZ9MfhVJKkAyITle90ZB6UoPE96J+n+X7UAWQTPqp5pWdNq6eCDOMCuiiZZp3x1/cB0Pv1nXvGNDeO5t98f+hUAlj+ChpQtzP38fMJqtD2o1YuV86CQn10HMIFkR2dz2sWUaBf0by/wOP+N57B8OaAfzgcB5nCIapbHqKxUw2FkdR+MxXvnXFk/9aoOPPu8MSTCJdV3rJxRyeI7jhD0ajgjBYZqk0usFvFpy25Vlwx6LCGeAsU+YsE0OcWGz+Gm/dX4WBcCTUQ=|tkp:Bk9SR4qUquiVZQ

It's a free country and all that, but for some reason this has massively annoyed me (I know it shouldn't). Attack of the Clones is the last line I need to complete a basic carded figure run from 1977 to 2005 - i.e. covering all six films so really thought I had a shot at these (they are also my least favourite and really only OCD driving my desire for them - It was a really bad line of carded figures, a real mess).

The only thing I can say is for £380 (£10.50 a figure) I think they will sit there for a good long while since the £3.60 per figure paid was already a high price.

Anyway - overall I was massively surprised by how high some of the more modern stuff actually went for.

Hope other folks that had a pop at stuff had better luck than me today (I also lost out on the MTT).

Also - if I pay £5 less on Evilbay for this lot: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/27680586...eLAzKuPG/LgVdrrHtEdAlwUUU=|tkp:Bk9SR5Cjn-mVZQ I get all 57 figures (£6.50 a figure) - which I think is £1.50 a figure to much, but compared to the other listing it's a bargain....
