Garage Find Old Star Wars Sets

[ACPin]

Still going through the summer inventory of sealed in boxes SW sets.

These sets are not for sale/trade.

Great find!

Were these purchased from garage sales recently or were they stored in your garage and you're doing an inventory?

I'm thinking the latter but if it's the former you've done well!

Cleaning up the garage and these were stored like the other themes (Town, Technic, Space, etc) inside. Took advantage of it and started taking pics of each bin/box for the inventory. More than half of these sets were bought at discounted prices from 20% off or more from various retail stores.

Ahhhh. Thought so. I didn't think anyone would be that lucky to pick these up at car boot and garage sales.

I still remember a friend of mine picking up that 4500 Snowspeeder and thinking it was amazing. That design hasn't changed all that much since then.

Impressive collection. Good thing you held onto those older sets, they're worth a ton these days.

But what are your plans for them? Retirement investment...? Save them for your kids further down the line...? Use them for parts...? Or just keep storing them until all eternity...? (Because if it's the last one, I just don't understand it...?)

Not in my neck of the woods, too many AFOLs around this area.

The very early ones are duplicates bought on clearance as my three sons played with a lot of them.

Whatever I decide eventually what to do with them, it's my decision to make.

The At-sit is a great set.

The At-sit is a great set.

From the outside but disappointed in the way it was constructed inside.
