Where did you get your Blue Snag and how much did it cost?

[01AB]

Personal question maybe, but what with rising fuel costs and a wife who shops in 'Monsoon' I cant justify spending roughly £100+ on a good condition Blue snaggletooth at the moment, however much i want one...

For those of you that have one, where and when did you get yours and for how much?

Any tips on how to find a good/cheep one, and dont point me in the direction of those stupid short legged custom jobs we've all seen on ebay....

I got mine for less than $100 from Brians Toys in the late 90s, back in the day when Brian's Toys actually had proper specials within their weekly email.

I've had quite a few in the past and most of them have been C8-C9.5. I've never paid more than £85.

Personally you should get an AFA graded one to make sure none of the silver has been repainted.

I wouldn't bother with the AFA route, in my experience their graders tend to miss quite a lot, so you could never be sure the boots weren't re-painted :roll:

I've paid between £45 and £80 for the few I've owned. There's bargains to be had - check the US ebay listings rather than the UK ones, and bide your time

I have a decent repro at the moment, If you would like for a filler for the moment. PM me if interested.

Paid £200 ages ago, when i started collecting since i was a child......stoooopid i know now

 

[elliott]

I paid £40, in 94/95, from a mail order catalogue I sent off for, from an ad in 'modelmart'...oh the good old days! :lol:

you can pick up some very good deals at fairs, especially the smaller ones, especially last thing, as the dealers are packing stuff away.

I've had a potential touch and purchased a job lot of figures with a blue snaggle nestled in with the collection. It is due to arrive in the post in the next few days....I'll let you know how I get on.

 

[weasel]

Fingers crossed it's a bluesnag in decent nick and not a scam!

 

[burnsy]

I know, seems like a genuine seller with a nice vintage collection. I'll be eagerly awaiting the postman. I'll get some pictures on here for you guys to have a look...

 

[gustie]

bluesnag is the last figure i need to complate the main run... i had a minty one but had to sell it when i was skint a couple of years ago :roll:
