I've been collecting loose for a couple of years and have started to pick up some mocs in the last 6 months or so. It's something I was a bit reluctant to do because I just see it as a hobby and can't justify mega bucks.
My collecting goal is for the main characters (mostly first 12) plus a few others who i was particularly fond of the first time around on any reasonable condition cards.
Three that have alluded me so far:
Luke farm boy
Han Solo
C3PO fixed limbs
Assuming ESB / ROTJ more likely to be affordable (which suits me as these are the cards I remember buying anyway)
Obviously I could just go the quick and easy (and expensive) BIN route - but ideally I'd prefer to avoid paying way over the odds of at all possible!
So my question is to more experienced collectors : what would you 'expect' to pay for these -(ish!) on the cheapest possible card, with a bit of luck and patience, in the current market?
Any input is appreciated! Your answer will determine whether I give up or possibly go the reseal route, which I kind of like the idea of.
