If you felt that was what the collection was worth (or cheaper) then it's a cracking price. e
Everyone will put their own value on things.
Personally I think you did really well there and got some very nice toys for the amount you paid.

Nice though to bad the Prime lot has to go to a dealer, I just wish the real fans would get more of a look in from time to time. Sometimes I think of these dealers as no better than ticket touts, but only because Ive been denied so many TFs I wanted for my collection by pesky sniping dealer out to make a fast buck.

[glow=red,2,300]I'd of perfered to get the Primes as there wasa Star Convoy and alot more than the Megs lot.
I really only wanted a few of the megs, around half of them. Gonna try and recoup some money buy selling the rest on. Ebay or maybe here. If people want them.
As for dealers they got all the cash, i only got this lot because i sold loads on ebay during the day. I like the collection/bulk lots on ebay, get some great finds in them, plus loads of little bits like the targetmaster i sold today found in a lot i got from ebay for about 3.00quid with a load of micromasters.
Yeah T4E a good guy bought loads form him at AA and on ebay.
Like you said just gotta be willing to bid that much more.

I dont have a problem with T4E, and would hope that Im not singling him out, nothing personal Im just saying that as a collector who doesnt attach a monetary value to TFs but the love of owning them it can be a shame to miss out. The answer is you have to be prepared to bid more than an amount which enlables dealers to make a profit margin on, which means us collectors miss out as we dont have the readies always available. I dont think anyone would deny that from time to time thevy felt geld to ransom in securing that special figure...

I'd be surpirsed if you didn't make most of your money back. In fact let me know when you are going to sell them, I might be interested in a couple.
