    Palitoy Dengar cardback question

    I'm on the lookout for a cardback to cut the nameplate out and put in my carded Palitoy Dengar. I've been looking for the exact same cardback without success, then it occured to me are there other Dengar cardbacks that have the exact same front & back. I saw a German Parker one and it looks...

    What item did you get for a bargain because of a flaw?

    I'm still on the lookout for a cardback for its nameplate, and it made me wonder what item(s) have you managed to get for a bargain just because of a little bit of damage or a flaw? I paid 1/10th the price of what a C8 condition one of these would go for. Fully sealed, just missing the name...

    Paypal and foreign currency

    Just wanted to know thoughts on this, following on from my Canadian Madine post in latest acquisitions. So I had $149 in my Paypal account (I'm UK based), and the Madine was for sale on Facebook from a Canadian based seller. The seller advertised that it was for sale in American dollars, and to...

    Chewy Vader miscard

    Anyone else put a bid on this? Up until 5 seconds before the auction ended, the price was £190, and I thought I was in for a proper bit of luck. One had just sold at Vectis for £2k. Shot up to £1076 in the last 5 seconds. Considering the Vectis price, arguably someone still got a bargain :lol...

    Visiting movie locations

    Got this idea off a guy on Instagram. Did some in LA (La La Land) and San Diego (Some Like It Hot) last January, and then in Hong Kong (Enter The Dragon) in October. Anyone done similar, especially with Star Wars locations?

    Selling my childhood stuff on eBay

    Was wondering how to sell these bits I found lying about my Mum’s place.

One is a beater figure lot, and the other is a beater ship/vehicle parts lot. Have a butchers...

    45 Back Palitoy Dengar nameplate/cardback

    I want to cut a cleaner hole in my latest MOC and put an authentic name plate in it. I simply do not want to put a printed one in. Does anyone have a beater of a cardback for the right price that has the nameplate perfectly intact? Cheers

    How rare are these and what would they go for? Can't find any focus collectors to ask. Basically a ROTJ front, and Meccano trilogo rear.

    Paypal phishing email

    Curious has anyone has had this happen, and/or if anyone knows why. Recently bought a MOC from someone who is pretty active in the hobby, first time I have bought from them. Probably around 10 minutes after sending the money via Paypal G&S I get a phishing email saying my payment method has...

    I'm selling a selection of Star Wars books

    No idea what to list them as as a lot or individual prices, so gonna let eBay do its thing. I'm just getting strict with things at home - If I haven't used or looked at something for 5 years, it's getting sold or going to the charity shop. I live in Bexleyheath Kent if you want to collect in...

    The Last Jedi latest trailer

    Q0CbN8sfihY First thoughts are looks decent. Things that are concerning me is Chewie is looking a little CGI, and what is that stupid looking CGI anime gerbil thing in the MF cockpit? I don't know why they keep insisting on using blatant CGI creatures. Anyone see that possible plot spoiler...

    Any new stories to do with dealing with the other half?

    I just bought my first MOC after a little dry spell, and my first thought is "crap, the missus is gonna be on my case asking how much THAT was?" :D This topic has been discussed before, but would be good to hear any updated stories that have happened with new buys. My recent trick is to watch...

    Fakes in wine collecting podcast

    I'm a big fan of podcasts and listen to loads. I almost skipped this one, as not only do I not drink wine or collect it, I don't drink at all lol. I do try to give every podcast a few minutes though, as it's surprising what there is to learn from something you thought you had no interest in...

    Flipping eck. So blatant it's embarrassing.

    There was only 1 bid, so no other interest at that price. Hope this makes them a loss when they can't sell it. Sand People GDE AFA 80 sold for $2.5k...
