Hi, I’m LegoFan1138. This is my first post, so I haven’t quite gotten the hang
of chatting with other members on the site yet. I created this account in February,
so I’m new here. Please be kind. I was wondering if anyone was willing to part
with a SW0107 Cloud City Boba Fett. I only have $200. I know that’s a very cheap
price for a figure of that value, but I could possibly add a few items to even
it out. Please message me if you are interested in parting with your Cloud City
Boba Fett. Please note, I am only accepting offers with the variant from 10123.

It is highly unlikely anyone will sell you a rare figure for 10-20% of its current
value. Once sold, you could flip it for a huge profit. You'll have to pay
market price or make do with a different, cheaper version.

Yes, that is true. However, I do recall misprinted items going for a high price
on the market. I have a light up lightsaber Darth Vader minifig with a misprinted
face. It’s printed WAY too low on the head. I haven’t seen anything like it at
all. I have a misprinted Indiana Jones head where the beard print is slightly
curved up in the middle. Perhaps those could be somewhat valuable?

These are going for between $1,200 and $2,000 used right now so I'm afraid
you won't have any luck with $200. Bricklink isn't really a bartering
site... you find what you're looking for and pay the asking prices. A few
sellers might negotiate on the pricea tiny bit, but most won't because someone
else will buy it eventually for their asking price.

Good luck.

I've got one in my personal collection, and if you absolutely blow me away
with an offer of cash+trade I'd consider it, but significant value would
need to be there. Feel free to PM me if that's something you really want
to do.

PS, I'm not really interested in misprints.

Okay, thanks for the info. With the cash from the Vader fig I might have a good
amount of money to possibly trade for SW0107. What is the condition of yours?

Looks very nice, prints are outstanding, but small cracks on back of one leg,
and both arms

I’d be willing to trade even with cracked arms and legs. I’ll get back to you
with an offer as soon as possible.

Wow... I thought when I found one unknowingly in a used lot I purchased about
10 years ago and sold it for $100.00 or so that I was getting a huge profit and
was very pleased at the profit...

Well on a eurobricks forum from 2010 the set was said to sell for $60 used, so
the figures were probably just starting to get expensive around that time.

Really? I recall Boba Fett was about $100 back in 2010 and Lando being about
half that if he had his cape. So $60 for a used set including all the minifigs
would have been a real bargain.

It could have just been a really good deal. I honestly have no idea what the
average price of the set was, that’s just what the forum said.

As a point of reference, I bought the whole set for $270 back in 2014. However,
the only figures included were Boba Fett and Darth Vader. Unfortunately, Boba
came with cracks in both arms which I had to find a replacement for.

I personally own the figures of Han ( regular and carbonite) Vader, and the stormtrooper.
I know they weren’t that expensive and the ones people really have to pay a pretty
penny for Boba, Luke, Leia, and Lando.

One of many regrets. Prices in canadian dollars from 2009.

Now just the figures are worth more than that. It’s crazy how much people want

Having some trouble with eBay, so the figure might not be listed for a while.
However, you can still message me if you have a cloud city boba fett you’re
trying to get rid of. New condition would be preferable, but the most I can pay
once I get the figure listed is $900. I’m going to list something else for another
$1000 so I could have a chance getting one in new condition. If you have the
figure and want to get rid of it, shoot me a message.

You can buy a replica Boba Fett 10123 from ebay and save up for the real thing.
I've seen some sold recently there and they look pretty good. Some were
$200+ on auction.

Yes, but that’s a replica. I’m not going to pay that kind of money for a fake.
I only buy the real thing, regardless of whether I have to pay a premium.

Boba Fett. Please note, I am only accepting offers with the variant from 10123.

You can buy a replica Boba Fett 10123 from ebay and save up for the real thing.
I've seen some sold recently there and they look pretty good. Some were
$200+ on auction.

I got a fake one in a bulk lot and was all excited until I noticed it was of
the lepin variety. They use to sell for like $3 on ebay. Now even those complete
fakes are $40+ since they're no longer attainable.

  Hi, I’m LegoFan1138. This is my first post, so I haven’t quite gotten the hang
of chatting with other members on the site yet. I created this account in February,
so I’m new here. Please be kind. I was wondering if anyone was willing to part
with a SW0107 Cloud City Boba Fett. I only have $200. I know that’s a very cheap
price for a figure of that value, but I could possibly add a few items to even
it out. Please message me if you are interested in parting with your Cloud City
Boba Fett. Please note, I am only accepting offers with the variant from 10123.

The odd thing is, that was a $200 figure for nearly 20 years after it's release.
It's only in the past few years that it skyrocketed.

I think a lot of speculative investing is happening, not collecting and enjoying
at this point. In my opinion, no figure is worth more than a couple hundred.
God forbid it cracks.

Funny thing is, I had the opportunity to buy it in 2018, but turned it down,
saying, “I’ll buy it later.” That was the worst decision I’ve ever made. It’s
a pity people have to pay that much and even pay $200+ for a FAKE. That’s just
not right for people to charge that kind of money for an off brand.

He was only $200 at that time, and the most people sold him for was $750.

I've got one with a cracked arm and dented legs. Not sure if that's
something that interests you, but I would be willing to negotiate depending on
what you are offering. DM me if you are interested.

I actually would be interested in this, thank you for messaging me. What would
your asking price be?

It's at this point in the conversation when negotiations begin, that DM is
the way. If Pete hasn't already taken it private, message him directly.

Best of luck in your hunt for Boba. I'm sure you'll get him at some point

Thank you popsicle. I’ll talk to Pete privately.
