[QUOTE="ScruffyLookingNH, post: 492811, member: 6563"] The run of the mill stuff went for market or above. The beater job lots of figures, well, what can you say? Crazy money. Then there were the better items. Palitoy diecast Star Destroyer MIB for £220 hammer. Bargain. Falcon about the same, maybe a little more. Again a great price. Palitoy 12 back Leia for £1,200 hammer leaves you wondering what was wrong that couldn't be seen. Even after commission that looked really very well priced. I'm reserving judgement until I see them but I'm pretty excited about picking up a Trilogo DSD MOC for the equivalent of £200 after I've shifted the Nikto MOC it came with. I've had assurances there are no splits or cuts in the bubble and the cardback looks pretty smart so we'll see. I broke my golden rule of not obtaining a condition report first but then for such a well publicised sale I didn't expect to be bidding on a single thing. Always a gamble.... There were some bargain basement Leia Organa Trilogos that, whilst not in the best condition, were veritable steals at little more than £200. One had a TFP blaster weapon error which is all sorts of cool. There were quite a few weapon errors, actually, so time will tell whether there's some tampered seals or whether the vendor had a thing for weapon errors. Also Trilogo Leia Hoths were going cheap at less than £150 AFTER fees once you take into account what they came with. Far from mint but a tough one to find and always popular. Not sure what happened there yesterday, to be honest. The normal gulf between bog standard Trilogo B-Wing pilots and Leias was greatly reduced. A sealed Trilogo B-Wing and a sealed Trilogo Hoth Rescue Set were amongst other underpriced items for those that like their toys untouched. Really interesting sale. [/QUOTE]
