Finding Vintage Toy Grails At Sandown Park Toy Fair - Sep 2023
Рет қаралды 5,363
Күн бұрынI love visiting Sandown Toy Fair for vintage toy hunting. It's usually a good hunting ground for me, the sun is shining and I'm in the mood for buying :)
Let's see how this goes, I have a feeling, it's gonna go well.
ps. You can see Stu and Georgie's Sandown haul at • Sandown Toy Fair pickups

The Search For, Preservation and Archival of Vintage Toys.
Hi, I'm VTR Dave. A Brit on a mission to curate a high-quality and diverse collection of vintage toys, known as the VT aRchive.
A homage to the iconic toys of the 70s & 80s to be shared with as many enthusiasts as possible, right here on this channel. And who knows, perhaps in the future, on display in a public space like a museum. Now, wouldn't that be something!
Subscribe to stay updated as I search for vintage toys, lovingly restore them, delve into their history, and piece by piece, construct the VT aRchive.
As always, thanks goes out to everyone who supports the channel. Every view, like & comment is appreciated.
Stay safe & cheers!

I’ve learned over the years of missed opportunities… If it strikes your fancy, buy it immediately. If you set it down and wait to cover the entire show before making a commitment, it will be gone. I went to a G.I. Joe show recently, with the notion of just looking. However, I saw something I have never seen at a show; it was a Lili Ledy Hombre Bala. I spotted it within 15 minutes after entering the show. I negotiated the deal and left the show 20 minutes later happier than I have ever been in life. Not to mention all of the items I lost out on because I was being too conservative!
@VintageToyRush 11 ай бұрын
No wiser words ever said. I usually subscribe to the 'when you see it, buy it' approach. This time, I took a calculated risk and it worked out, thankfully. As you say, we've all been burned at some point. Nice Lily Ledi find btw, no wonder you left happy 👍
