Dear all,
I'm sorry if my post here may seem irrelevant.

I'm from Singapore and have just moved to Paris because of of my job. I'll be here for a period of 2 years.

I'm a Star Wars fan and am a big collector of toys, especially vintage.

I've stumbled onto this French site by chance and would be delighted if some of you "pffffffuiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit !" touch base with me and tell me more about the star wars community in France.

Unfortunately, i do not speak French at this point in time and "pffffffuiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit !" hardly understand what's written here in this forum!

All i know is i love star wars and i hope my interest in Star Wars will allow me to make friends in France sharing a mutual love for StarWars.

I'll be more than happy to buy/trade/sell Star Wars with my fellow French collectors here. Being from Singapore, i am able to get many Star Wars toys at a price much cheaper than here. I'm shocked to find the prices of toys are so expensive here! The Singapore dollar is 50% that of the Euro so it will be in your favor to buy toys from Singapore!!

For example, we have the Gentle Giant exclusive C3PO from Art of Star Wars exhibition in Singapore and that is about 45 Euros. I see it being sold here for 80Euros!

Likewise, i purchased the Gentle Giant Stormtrooper Bust in Singapore for Sing$120, which is about 60 Euros, where it is sold here for 100 Euros.

I guess i really "pffffffuiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit !" make a fast buck if i set up shop here :)

In any case, I'll be going back to Singapore come end January and will be returning to Paris in early Feb with a shitload of toys (vintage, POTF2, OTC, Freeze Frame etc) and hopefully, i will be able to start my trade/sell/buy actively here.

I look forward to making friends on this forum and do drop me an e-mail if you need anything from Singapore!

Hi Quentin!

Welcome to our forum!
If you ever need anything, and "pffffffuiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit !"'t find the words to state what you're looking for, please feel free to ask me , I'll post or translate it in french for you.
I agree it would be most interesting for us to purchase items from Singapore, anf this for two reasons, the currency first, ans then the fact that most of the licenced toys merchandise is made or traded in your place!!!
I hope you will find what you like here and have fun!
:wink:

But be assured that we'll be enough here to talk with you and make good deals : Singapore is trully a good place to get very good prices ... :P

Welcome again and see you soon on MIB ! :)
