Vintage SW is still affordable - £50 or less MOCs latest acquisitions

[robpmarsh]

not gonna post the pic again but I'm now the proud owner of the £10 R5-D4 Rich picked up at FF!!!

 

[Richard_H]

Balls hopefully he asked before me otherwise I've been shafted

pretty certain you haven't been shafted as it wasn't up for sale. It's up to Richard who he sells it to whether you pm'd first or not.

Of course but if someone did enquire first is it not etiquette on here to offer it to that person first. Or at least inform them of an update. Either way ive missed another bargain again lol

Rob was first. The agreement was done before you posted.

It wasn't offered for public sale, it was sold between two long term collectors and friends for mates rates, on the open market a far higher price would have asked for and achieved, you've missed nothing, Richard did something good for the hobby by helping another collector and Rob got a bargain for his less than perfect MOC run.

EDIT- not to say there is anything wrong with his run but to say they are well loved cards

Fair enough. I see the pecking order on here. Newbies dont get offered anything or helped out on their own collections. I know who to buy from and not buy from. Thanks for the tip

Whoah, bloody hell. Rob was first. End of. I've been very busy lately and never saw this otherwise I would have nipped this in the bud. The deal was agreed before you posted your message hence why I posted it was sold. No forum, and I'd like to think me too, has done enough to help new people into the hobby. If you were the first to make it known to me (and pm is always better) then it would have been yours. I've just sold a shelf talker to a guy with 3 posts for the price I paid for it. Arranged to collect items from vectis for a guy with zero posts. Things like this feel like a right kick in the teeth.

Cheers Chris, I don't know what came over me, it's not even a KayBee sticker but I've not bought a beater for ages - just sold some loose figures to cover most of the cost

 

[poncho]

If you ever come to sell in the future lmk. Good find facebook i take it?

 

[lejackal]

Yes mate, I sold a Trilogo as I've overspent and then this popped up so sold a few loose - I think I've got an addiction :lol:

 

[robpmarsh]

We all have an addiction....to lovely beaters! :lol:

 

[Michael Sith]

Got to love the beaters, I have a number of them 2 of which are doubles, Klaatu and ERG and also a Madine card and bubble, I can't put pics up via Flikr at the moment. Can email pics if anyone is interested.

Yeah it's just our resident drama queen. I think I speak for everyone when I say I'm glad it went to Rob! You've got nothing to worry about Rich, I think we all know you are a stand up guy that always goes the extra mile (or 200!) to help out a fellow collector.

Carry on posting your affordable MOC purchases guys

[Clarkspie&chips]

Aye aye cap'n.

This is a project I've been working on for about a year so it still counts. The full run of jabbas goons on jedi cards.

About half were from Iain and the rest from eBay and Toy fairs, all under 50 notes and an average price of just over £30.

 

[Joe]

Fantastic! Love the shipping case too, really nice!

 

[robpmarsh]

Fantastic run!

...loving the packing case too!!

 

[Clarkspie&chips]

I tracked down this Anakin Tri-Logo for $40 USD. Not bad considering these guys go loose for around $25.

 

[Pomse2001]

Nice anakin

 

[Lom]

Love this thread so much!

Picked this fella up for the focus on a buy it now from eBay - $50 well spent I think. It was around 6 months ago so was at pre-Brexit exchange rates meaning this cost around £35. Including postage it still came in below £50...

 

[Shaky_BobaFett]

Lads what cracking Mocs we have ere! Poncho that is superb what u done with that wbg-Love it fella !
Rob I'm well chuffed for yet getting that R5 ( what a great figure!) and hats off to yeh Rich for your good turn in looking after the collecting community .
