Count Fooku Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 Did any of you make purchases then wish you hadn't or not buy something then wish you had? I did on two items, one stall holder had a photo of virtually every main Star Trek cast member with a full set of pre-printed sigs on it, I decided to wait until Sunday to see how my money was looking, when I decided I could afford it, it had been sold! The other item was a print of New York if Earth had been assimilated by the Borg, statue of liberty having being borgified so to speak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colonel Jack O'Neill Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 That print of New York assimilated by the Borg has been available at every event I have been too so I wouldnt worry too much about missing out on it as you will get the chance to buy it again.

I got far too many things, mainly autographs and those posters though. I am dreading checking how much money I owe lol I know that sucks, not like he had a bloody line anyway. And you know what I found out afterwards he spelt my name wrong Oh well least I have another one from Matt where it is spelt correctly just the picture isn't as good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batman Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 There were some foreign guys selling pictures of different films 8"x10" Star Wars LOTR and so on, I should of bought some of the Star Wars pictures, I mean they were only £2.50 each but I thought I can pick them up any time on the net. After having a look online I now find that most retailers don't stock these images, Doh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very cheap, very different and very good. Not sure what nationality the store holders were - Danish possibly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guys were German - got some stuff off them and one of them couldn't work out the money , then decided that 3 x £2.50 is £17.50 . Nice guys though and had some great stuff .
