| Looks great, the warping on these can be very bad but this one looks almost flat compared to the one i have |

| Looks good here too. It's a very common figure. Someone unearthed a bunch of them. |

| It looks fine to me aswell. The Jawa is the most commonly seen & affordable Meccano square cut card. |

| Ryan - Bit of advice, don't overpay. People get into foreign cards and assume they are all big $$$. |

It was a good price I believe (unless you say it wasn't! ). It was $120 w/shipping. Now... what is a good display case for him? Acrylic case? |

| Usually it's $80-$100 but it looks really good. So maybe a little on the high side but not bad considering it looks fantastic. You can get a case from Christian (GW Acrylic) right here! |

Ryan you got an amazing deal!!!!! Thank you! Thought it was a good one too As for the GW Acrylic cases, do you have a link? I saw the post you had made during the give-a-way, but not a place to order one for the Meccano size cards. |

| I think it's pretty fair. Looking on eBay, I've seen cards in the same condition going for a lot more (non-graded). It's just kinda nice getting something different. I have two LL MOCs, both ROTJ figures, everything is typical Kenner. This will be my 'oldest' MOC so far.

I feel a little bad, I wasn't raining on your parade pal. At $120 it's a fair price, really it is. It is in nice shape too. I've seen them sell under $100 but the market has improved. I didn't take that into account.
The question I always ask myself is whether I will be able to recoup my cost on an item. If I think I won't, I pass. Like it or not we will sell up one day. In your case, I think you'll be fine. So enjoy it! |
