    Chris from Metropolis is a real character and I mean that in the best way. I always enjoy my visits to his shop in Warwick and because he now knows me as a regular customer he’s opened up the shop just for me on the odd occasion.
    Great series so far Joe, Gav and Matt the Camera man.

    You know I'm 90% sure I had that Centurions Desk Tidy as a kid! Either that or another Franchise version of it! I remember the arm being a Magnifying Glass and the Tape dispenser!

    Another great episode chaps, fantastic camerawork from Matt to focus on the items being discussed. Spotted Gav buying the 'Merlin' electronic game (at 15:47 and 16:19) as I used to play a lot of blackjack/pontoon on my brother's one:) Cheers & all the best.

    Another great episode, I'd love to rummage through all those boxes in the back rooms of toy shops.
    Great to meet you yesterday Joe, my wife and I really enjoyed looking round your shop, it's got her looking for her old toys now. I need to phone you tomorrow to ask about a couple more of the figures I was looking.

    Another cracking episode! That box of G.I joes carded from the back room of ACME made me smile. Congrats on the Death Star pickup. Gavin finding that space toys book was fantastic with all the old pics of the Kenner Star Wars in it. Great Video!

    @jasonotoole1822 2 роки тому +2

    Love this series totally but sorry Joe after seeing you hold so many others over the barrel haggling over prices...it was good to see Chris keep you in check for once. 😉 BTW totally agree about the Palitoy Death Star...I had one as a kid and it is definitely my grail piece even today...if only my Mum had not given away all my Star Wars toys.

    Joe trying to haggle with an old master. It's like Luke trying to mind-trick Obi-Wan. Just too canny of a dealer, someone who knows what his stuff is worth!

      Another great question. We are hosting a live UA-cam toy shop on tour q&a at the end of the series. We’ll answer that then 👍

  • @loganjorgensen
    @loganjorgensen Рік тому +1

    The changing market must be challenging, model trains just don't have the wider audience they once had. Not that I don't like some of the new stuff but it's a bit boring with Anime, Star Wars, and Pop vinyls dominating shelf space in so many stores.
    Personally I can't stick to any one era of toys, the only thing holding me back on pre 1970s items is the prices since things only get rarer and more costly as time passes. Funny thing now is extremely early price increases on relatively new items, guessing the older demographic, limited editions, exclusive releases, and the scalping matters all add up to that.

      I would suggest that he didn't have a TV when he was young, because he couldn't find a TV salesman willing to give him 70% off the price of it!

    Graded stuff kills the hobby dead for me.
    Who grades it?
    Surely it's just used uncarded stuff scrubbed up and put in a perspex box?
    I can do that myself.
