Isn't this prosecutable?

EDIT: I didn't realize this was a star wars only thread and I doubly didn't realize batshit crazy meant only high prices.

Luke threw twice…maybe.

What does that have to do with Star Wars memorabilia?

Oh life-size Amanaman, only you truly understand me!

 I think you're missing the point of the thread. Such items are pricey, but do not rise to the level of batsh*t crazy.

The bids on this do...

 Ah, well, my idea of batsh*t is having a life-size(?) statue of one of the most ridiculous looking and obscure background characters in my house, but tastes will vary ;).

I see.

Somebody must have Jabba's palace recreated in their basement though, and it wouldn't be complete without Amanaman. ;)

I think he's actually a lot taller in the movie...

This "FlatCap" dude needs to be banned.

 Definitely.  Of all the ways you could promote your project, that has to be one of the dumbest things I've ever seen.  Why piss off the community that you'd like to have on your side?  Just bone-headed.

As much nostalgia as I have for the 97 SE cuts, I would never pay this much.

From the listing: "Notice no purple DVD backside.  These are legit."

Ahh, the so called five star collection bootlegs.

I'm pretty sure if one is looking hard enough they could find better copies of the 97se then that.

Where? I only have the TV rips, which aren't that great to begin with.

I emailed the seller telling him they're boots from Asia and he said "I bought them in 1997 from Wal-Mart, legit in my book".

This seller could have slightly overestimated the value of their goods, they could be a ebaying genius, or they could just be a delusional clown. After you’ve stopped laughing at the price read the item description (and pay attention to their preferred payment method!)

The listing ends in 10 hours, hurry before you miss out!

Perhaps they misunderstood the “gold” part and are trying to sell it as if it was made of gold.

It’s strange that they have good feedback, and otherwise very normal items for sale.

Looks like it got to stay in the UK after all. 😉

‘Star Wars Adidas Originals Darth Vader Hoodie Jacket Superstar Track Top’:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Star-Wars-Adidas-Originals-Darth-Vader-Hoodie-Jacket-Superstar-Track-Top/183658357004
 

Ours for only US $5.5 million - free shipping!

It might well be ‘Pre-Owned’ - I think if we club togther we have ourselves a bargain 😃
 

The Description:

'The force is strong in my family as I’m descended from the legendary Djedhi/Djedi (Jedi) Masters of Ancient Egypt, who’s prediluvian ancestors were architects of the Sphinx and Great Pyramids during Zep Tepi, or the first time of Atlantis. The original/prequel story line of Star Wars and the Skywalker name is derived from my ancient ancestry, written by George Lucas who was mentored and influenced by the great Joe Campbell.

Up for grabs is the Darth Vader superstar track top from my personal Adidas Originals collection, it’s in mint condition, has all the accessories including hood, cape with light sabre pouch and front panel (all detachable) which I’ll sign on the back. I’ll also include a Certificate of Authenticity to match the jacket and a personalized video to you, decoding the symbolism/story of the Skywalkers/light sabre from the movies which connects directly to my ancient ancestry! Some other interesting facts to note here is that I come from one of the places mentioned in the movies and was born only a few days after the premiere of “A New Hope”. (My ancestry/history is linked and connected to the Skywalkers and the Jedi in the Star Wars movies 100%)

The jacket comes in a unique one off handcrafted wooden box which will be presented to you on location with an special event to mark the occasion, starting a 5 day all inclusive private tour of ancient Ireland, home of the Skywalkers with me as your personal guide in April or August 2020 to witness a spectacular solar alignment! During your stay we’ll visit key ancient sites connected with my ancestry and the Star Wars movies! As the tour unfolds I’ll also share the old wisdom of the very ancient lands with my unique insight into history as we embark on trips to Skellig Michael, filming location for the first Jedi temple in both The Force Awakens/The last Jedi and the town of Scariff named in Rogue One as a planet, location for the death star plans! Just arrange your visa/flights to Ireland and I’ll take care of the rest.

Ideally this package would complete the circle for the official writer of the greatest story ever told, the master himself George Lucas! Perhaps someone in the Star Wars crew past/present or for any Padawan who wants to take their place and go on an adventure of a lifetime with me, relearn the wisdom of the Djedi masters and own a piece of memorabilia that will take its place in history from the greatest cult classic ever written!

You can see the solar alignment and find information about the ancient Egyptian Djedi by typing Tutankhaten into youtube and navigating to that channel, its the first one that comes up!

May the Force be with you!’

 

Oh! It’s size Large - sorry, I’m out. More of a small/medium

😉

Tighten Up and then turn it all the way up to 11!

^ I will share - 6 months each? I think we can strike a deal with the guy, though I have no Masters Of Egypt as any of my ancestors, so I hope he is okay with selling to us mere mortals!
Maybe tell him we are related to the Skywalkers, sing Yub Nub as proof, and demand a hefty discount? 😉

Biggs wins the thread with that one, nothing else could possibly top it. 😉
