not strictly a sale, but 8097 slave 1 is back in stock at tesco direct for £60. i think it's going to be going OOP soon as the stock on tesco seems to be hit & miss & there doesnt seem to be many places selling it, even on amazon its marketplace sellers at £90!

just ordered the 8097 slave 1 from tesco for £60. seems this may be about to go OOP as its only just come back into stock, lego dont list it & its only marketplace on amazon (for about £90!)

well i've took the plunge! as i really fancied making this death star i've gone for doing this & the 10030 star destroyer (as they share alot of the same colours so thought that might make it easier) i've just ordered the most pieces i can get in one go (around 600 for £20 + P&P). i've never used excel since i was at school though. doesnt bricklink automatically adjust what you need after you've done an order? is there an idiots/dummies guide to using bricklink?! LOL

superb job!!! what was the hardest bit? this is one of the sets i want to do myself (along with 10179 falcon, 10178 atat, 7191 x-wing & 10030 destroyer). have you do this before with bricklink? i'm thinking of doing 2 or more at a time just to get all the same bits for each set at once. dont know how well that'll work out or not as i guess i'll be waiting a fair bit to finish them all! LOL

well i've had teeney weeney spending spree!!! over the last 2 days (since getting some shares cashed in) i've bought/ordered 10225 R2D2 7965 millenium falcon 9493 x-wing 9490 droid escape 9492 tie fighter 10188 death star (bought as an investment but think i'll actually open it as it seems a good set to play with!) 9675 sebulbas podracer & tatooine 9676 tie interceptor & death star unfortunately the 8097 slave 1 that was in stock at tesco for £60 las month have now all gone :(

oh right! LOL you can see the confusion as the guidelines in the buy/for sale thread just say about needing 10 posts & dont mention needing 100 at all. not to worry! i'll list it on avforums then, just thought it might have been better listing here as i was wanting someone to collect (& therefore see the condition as i do worry with it being such a high value!) so wouldve had more chance here. PS i'm quidditys_shore on avforums if anyones interest! LOL

hiya i was wanting to sell my falcon but cant start a thread in sales forum. it does say you need 10 posts (got just a few more! LOL) but i still cant. is there a reason? or do you need more than 10 posts first? i know i'm pretty new on here but i'm well established over on avforums, hotukdeals & ebay

here you go, along with the 2011 advent calendar falcon! http://postimage.org/image/5zn0nlqtt/ i've also got the midi & 10179 UCS! really liked the review. i wanted a falcon that i can play with so will be getting it soon, just need to sell the 10179 first!

ohhhhh! this site is naughty! LOL i'm DEFINITELY going to get R2-D2!! I'm also interested in moding it but dont want to mess with the kit so may, as others have said, buy the bits to create a different droid & then mod that with movement/lights. its the same with the 10179 falcon i've got. i wanted it to do more & have a "battle wore" look but because its so rare i dont want to mess with it. i never even though about buying parts to make a replic until i came here! now i'm going to sell my falcon & then buy bits to built it again the way i'll like it :)

thanks :) will message you on wednesday then

my most recent was 9 months ago! got the 8099 star destroyer from tesco for £15 :) not bought anything since as were saving for disneyworld last november, then xmas, then i went & wont a trip to disneyland paris in march! so saving for spending for that as well as currently paying for ANOTHER disneyworld trip this september! LOL though i have a shopping list ready for next month when i'll hopefully will have sold my 10179 millenium falcon & can spend half of what i get for it on R2D2 UCS, 7965 millenium falcon, 9493 x wing, 9492 tie fighter & 9490 droid escape :)

i voted maybe because i guess it all comes down to costs. the 3 sites i regularly use are avforums, hotukdeals & thedibb avforums is on tapatalk but i dont use it as there's hardly any sites i nkow who do so why pay for it? however avforums does have its own iOS/android app which i use all the time! hotukdeals is avaliable on few apps but they are rubbish. however there is a mobile version of their site but its far far to basic for me & i just stick to browsing the regular site. thedibb has, what i believe, the best solution for this site. there's no app, just a choice of styles. right at the bottom of their forums theres a drop down menu for dibb - regular website, "mobile - wap style site, iphone - basic website view. for me the iphone style is THE option you should go for on here! its still a website but its far easier to navigate & would just do the same as an app. just try it, goto www.thedibb.co.uk/forums then choose iphone (its just called that for a style name! still works perfect on any mobile/ipod touch)

i've bought a few sets without the wife knowing! mainly when they've been on offer at argos or tesco near where i work. i've had to cycle home with them, hidden as much as possible & try getting them into my MANS room before shes sees them! LOL once in there she thinks i've always had them!

i've watched 2 IPL cricket matches back to back on itv4 whilst checking off all the pieces in my 10179 millennium falcon set, ready for selling it

in "the great & secret show" by clive barker (my fav author!) there's an island surrounded by a sea that you swim in in your dreams (washing up on the islands beach), but only twice in your life. the first being the night you spend with your true love, the second being the night you die. this sea is called quiddity & therefore the islands beach is quidditys shore :)
