[QUOTE="Camper, post: 540741, member: 12987"] Hi, I'm new to the forum and looking for some guidance. We came across 2 vintage SW figures in original packaging when cleaning out a family member's house (never opened or played with). We are not collectors and so now need help with determining their value. - Jawa with vinyl cape, 1977 Kenner, 12-back original (from my online research, I think it is on a Canadian 12A cardback - CSW12A), in original packaging and in good condition - Darth Vader with telescoping lightsaber, 1977 Kenner, 12-back original (I think it is on a Canadian 12D cardback - CSW12D), in original packaging but this package has a little damage (crease in the cardboard and some creasing along the upper side of the plastic bubble) My searches online show a very large range in values. Any thoughts on value of each? If the family decides to sell them, any recommendations on how to do this? And I guess related to that, is it worth having these graded? If so, is there a recommended grader? (i.e. UKG vs AFA vs other?) I've read mixed views on grading so am not sure how to proceed. I've also read that they can be damaged during transit back in the clear, hard cases... Any guidance/tips would be greatly appreciated! Thanks [/QUOTE]
