Best of luck dude. A wonderful collection which I hope gets you everything you need and more.

I'll have my fingers crossed for you.
Best of luck mate. See you at Xmas FF if not before.

Enjoyed watching that, put a few bids in but didn't win anything. On the plus side that means you got more cash for those things 8)

Yes particularly enjoyed watching the Tri Logo miscards going up up up. I put bids in on the Kenner 21 back Han and the Early Bird Certificate package but was underbidder I think.

Can anybody tell me the current value of the EB Certificate package as I felt like it sold for an amazing price (but I have no points of reference) and I lost out when the auction ended abruptly and I couldn't continue bidding (perhaps I had connection issues).

I again lost out on a MOC trilogo Yakface.

I also bid on a few of the Han items and got blown away so hopefully you get a nice sum for them!

I thought I had won two Rebel Soldier MOC, but only seem to have won the 41A. I seem to remember discussions on here about bids not regestering before? Has this happened to anyone else?,

It was some auction, a lot of items went for a fair price I thought.

Sadly I missed this as I started a new job today and couldn't disappear for a couple of hours. Hope you got what you needed Steve and hope everything works out for you :!:

It might show up in a bit on your account. As only now my account is showing I bid on something, which I assume I won.
we will probably get the invoices later tonight or tomorrow.

There were some items I thought went for fair prices (unusual for a Vectis auction), but glad a lot of your stuff went for good money, Steve. I managed to nab to the two items I had on my list; a couple of Rebel Commando MOCs to add to my focus.

Rather frustrating Vectis are still seemingly having issues with their website. About 30 lots from the end of the auction I got booted off. I logged back in but could only visit the "watch live" page, not the "bid live" page on any browser. I'd be pissed off if that'd happened before the lots I was after came up.

I missed an Banamamaman last auction or the one before - I bid. The system said I was winning. It said I won. I hadn't. Boo

Congratulations Steve, I hope that as pleased as you can be with the end result.
I too bid on a few items but was either outbid before or during the auction.
Well done to anyone that did get the items they were after. :D

If you notice in time ring them straight away, as it might take a few minutes but they will try and put you on phone bidding. It happened with me. I missed a few 12 backs when they updated the site, but was on phone for the 20 backs. And gained a bonus Chewbacca the next day. But it is totally gutting if you have been online for most of the day waiting for the lots to come up.

Where you watching/ logged in on only 1 device ?

Just spoke with Vectis and they are bringing my winning lots to Sandown Toy Fair in November to save on postage (plus I don't want to risk damage to bubbles in the post). If anyone else would like their lots picked up on their behalf I am happy to bring them to FF in December, if that helps anyone?

I won a 65a han solo but probably on reflection paid to much the overall condition looked great but in the description it did say sliced down the bubble so figure can probably be removed. Still it will display nice.

Make sure that they don't charge you anyway. I rang to say Rich would be collecting my win. A few hours later I got a text from DHL with delivery details and an email confirming £13 had been taken from my credit card.

Got sorted in the end but very annoying. Their website also says that I lost all my bids, despite them having automatically charged me and in the process of posting it! Definitely some issues this week.

Thanks Spoons. I think I'm ok, they haven't charged me for postage...yet! But they did charge my card within hours of my winning for the total of the lots. Not a massive issue but for all they know I was going to collect and pay cash. It would be better to give the buyer 24 hours to complete the sale in my opinion.

I've ended up winning both items I thought I had, so happy in the end. Certainly some issues though.

That's good, when I complained I asked to have instant payment unchecked so next time I should be able to pay after I've been notified I won something. Send them an email and change your payment preferences

Both my items arrived today, very fast shipping. They really have sorted the post auction service out I think. Very pleased indeed, thanks Vectis. :D
