[QUOTE="TEEBO1979, post: 383657, member: 6994"] With the mention of Fenwicks it reminded me of an Urban Legend I was told a few months ago by a vintage toy seller in Durham. He told me that when the demand for Star Wars toys ended in the late 80's Fenwicks in Newcastle could not sell there remaining stock for love no money (that is proberly why they were priced at £0.25). So the story goes that the decision was made by the management to get rid and all the remaining stock was sent to a landfill. If true I bet there is an ex Fenwicks employee who crys at the mention of Star Wars at the thought of all that lost stock worth thousands of pounds. [/QUOTE]
