Thanks Jared for the excellent reply.
I probably won't get my Afa Greedo re graded by UKG to match my other 20 backs now

We all know a loose Lobot is a £15-20 figure & I got a UKG90 (F90,P85).I was told it was only the 3rd to achieve that grade & was curious to see what price it would fetch so I put it on eBay auction. Imagine how shocked I was when it sold for £475!!! :o There are quite a few people who are putting ...

So few items get a grade of 90, so if you are a collector who wants a full run of 'graded 90's' you need deep pockets and hit big when you need to. I don't understand the obsession with high grades, its hard enough putting an average run together. :lol: That was close to our original discussion at ...

A discussion with my wife earlier has got me thinking, and it would be interesting for any other opinions. On graded items, obviously the higher grade adds to the value. And an 80 grade should in theory be worth slightly less than an 85 grade. So how much more would you say a 90 grade could be over ...

Don't think they will, ebay will take it down probably. AFA don't know what day of the week it is!

This just showed up on my ebay. Still on there at £185.

Thanks all, very pleased with it.

Finally bought something during lock down

I wonder if AfA can/will do anything about this ?
I imagine their grading label has copyright ?

Well it has certainly been a crazy year for all of us what with COVID-19, lockdown and furlough etc :!: It has also been a crazy one for me regarding vintage SW as yesterday I received the last MOC I have been missing for a long time to complete the Palitoy full historic production run of Luke Skyw...

Bump ! As it is insurance renewal time in my household. I think we will take out collectors insurance,on top, as it is surprising the value now of items. Has anyone else got any ? How do you find it ? As due to an incident with my parents,we found that it is a different cash value, to a replacement ...

Good luck mate, it CAN be done.

Thanks Mark.
I bet you are still smiling

Just need a Power Droid to complete my 20 back set. I expect to be asking for a long time, but it needs to be un punched and ideally an 85 grade to be in keeping with the other 7. Also on the look out for Palitoy 12 Backs -luke, Vader, Ben, leia ,Han and Stormtrooper - again 85 if graded. Thanks Paul

Hi everyone. Just wanted to share my latest pickup with you.

Now that's showing off Mark !!

Congratulations on finishing your 12 back run.
You must be really chuffed as it's a beauty .
I'm so jealous
I haven't bought anything in ages sadly

Just looked at mine, and it's black.
Just as dark as the black on Luke's boots and accessories.
