No weapon means it was a trilogo. Last couple that I have seen sold have gone around the £650 mark.

It makes me so sad. So many people are after one MOC, me included.

The seller is the guy who has the AFA 95 MOC's. They have been for sale for years and years. He has some beautiful stuff but very top end prices.

Yeah I've been looking at his stuff for years, he's got or had a POTF Lando AFA 95 for £2000 been for sale at least 5 years. :roll: Also sells loads of clothes I think.

You can double that time frame. I remember looking at it back when I was buying stuff. That's 8-10 years ago.
It is a lovely MOC, and AFA 95's are like hen's teeth, but ten years is a ridiculously long time to be trying (and failing) to sell something. I'd hate to see what he's paid in fees.

Yeah that's what I always thought ridiculous. It's as if he isn't bothered whether he sells them or not, but if someone offers the right price he will let them go. I don't think I have ever seen AFA 95's anywhere else.

That just looks ridiculous - and considering you can pick up a sealed box for under 100GBP then I think he may be hanging on to if for a while

So this is what happens to sealed vectis shipping containers I guess. It looks ****ing crap. How the **** can this be u graded untouched by human hand when the ****ing pleb at Afa would have had to put it together.

I hope the spring releases the parts when it gets shipped and they end up with a box of bits.

I would think it could be Ugraded from a sealed box so wouldn't have to come from a shipping container - although you never know with some people

That would be perfect :)

What a completely moronic thing to do. Saw a sealed Speeder Bike at FF for £60. What tool would a) waste their time getting this done? And b) be deluded enough to think it would sell for anything like 3 figures?

This makes AFA look as stupid as the seller, in my book. Morons all round.

Is U-grading of mailers also frowned upon. Just bought this guy and would like to know if it is ok or if that puts me in bad standing!?
