It was supposed to be at the end of this month, but all the auctions have been put back. Best guess if they do online only is the end of May if the April ones go well.

I had a look at their April auctions the other day, couldn't find any Star Wars stuff. Hopefully something in May like said above.

Thought with the economy in the state it's in I'd get a bargain or two. Seemed to be the complete opposite.

The prices things were achieving :eek:

Bloody hell. Crazy prices. I won 3 lots but paid a bout 20% more than I'd hoped on all of them. Lost 2 lots that just went too high for me.

Since when did 45b start going above £1000!!

People have got money burning holes in their pockets from a lack of toy shows.

I'm outbid on all mine but dont know about the diecast ESB falcon. Anyone know what that went for - Vectis tells me I'm winning but it was one of the earlier lots so finished long ago.

I thought £1700 for the 45C Luke X-Wing was absolutely crazy, admittedly I haven't seen one for sale recently but to me that is a sub £500 MOC, there are plenty out there. There must have been two people desperate for it. That was the only thing I was after, but sounds like nearly everything went for 'more money than sense' prices.

Bloody hell, in my head that's £3-400 😳

All of those Die cast opened packets went for a really high amount I thought. Some of them would near equal the sealed examples once you add the price of getting the loose vehicles.

You'd think the current lockdown and economic situation would have the sellers worrying about their items going cheaply but the reverse was true today.
I don't think I've ever been so amazed at the prices of some of the items particularly the carded figs.
I'm kinda glad i don't collect them anymore.
I'm currently chasing less popular items lol and ended up with a couple of the cool cookie jars to add to my Leia and Jabba and sorry to say Spoons i couldn't resist the ESB Falcon.
I had no idea you were after it, must be the only diecast you don't have then?
I got it for 320 but obviously stick 70quid on top with fees.
Its not going anywhere mate and if you haven't got one by then it could be yours in future.
I just love the transitional ESB stuff.

Regards
Paul

Glad it went to a good home Paul, my highest bid was £270 so at least another person between you and me. With fees and postage I didn't fancy going higher than that.

Thought the die cast prices wereall over the place. The Palitoy Y Wing was about spot on at around £400 with fees, but the snowspeeders and particualrly the cloud car seemed high - the slave 1 was only £100 + fees, was the bubble cracked?
