- ALL CORINTHIAN CONVENTIONS
Every year Corinthian hold an official convention. All the top dealers and resellers turn up to these with their own trading table. These are like collector fairs (below), you will find many a rare figure at a cheap price.
- COLLECTOR FAIRS
Collector Centres and resellers regularly attend toy and antique fairs around England and Scotland. I have been to a few of these fairs and believe me, they are full of great deals. Ask SFUK, NWSports, Collector Mania for event dates. A list of all Resellers and stocklists phone numbers can be found at the Official Corinthian Website under Retailers or check the News page.
- DEALERS
Well known dealers sometimes have them for sale. At the 2002 convention, a dealer from South Africa brought over 100's of Shell Redemptions, selling them for a under £5. Check the UltraBoard for great figures for sale. If its dutch lottery figures you need, John Braber is the man to speak to.
- OTHER TIPS
Check car boot sales, I bought an Ally McCoist Vivid Imaginations figure for just 10p. Some people don't know what they are worth. Markets are also helpful. Above all enjoy collecting.
