The items I was looking at were Star Wars ones and its easy to find the prices of those, I never knew it would get such a big response.

seriously though there will always be those out there with visions of selling a said shite item for mega cash, star wars a prime example of the inner workings of those who know nothing, since starting to buy toys and the conversations i've had with folk since, people will say 'so you collect toys, which ones?' i will respond then i'll get 'yeah i still have a millenium falcon, i've been saving that it'll be worth a fortune'. i'm sorry but no. it's up the individual, i'll still have a laugh at the listing and the pricing i'll never buy it and it'll never change,

I'm so old, that I can remember when:
a) That when new, these toy's seemed hideously expensive in the shops...
b) By the end of the line, these toys were so cheap, that shops couldn't give 'em away...
c) All this was just fields when I was a lad.
:-D

This is sooooooooo true! My parents could only afford the Attack Cannon, the Jeep and two figures for Christmas. At the end of the line I was cycling to the city with my pocket money every week to get a new figure! At the final clearing days, they were 20p.

I am even older, these fields were still a forest when I was a lad. ;)
