    I did... what a shocker.
    There was 2 stalls selling transformers. 1 was selling KO Dinobots for $170 each.
    Another store was selling boxed G1s for over $350 as well as loose items.

    Too expensive and generally a waste of money. I think you will get more choice on ebay and ozformers.

    No I didn't go I didn't have time at the moment. The KO sellers are probably the common ones that are usually there. Any boxed G1 TFs you saw there were likely the KO ones (unless you meant Reissues/Encore etc). There's sometimes another seller with G1 parts but never that many TFs for sale, but lots of other toy lines for those collectors who are into other things. However you do sometimes get the odd good TF find.

    ^^^ totally agree with U.Magnus...

    the lady with the fake dinobots gave me her card, her shop is somewhere near eaglemont station or something? not that i'd buy off her...she blatantly sells ko's.

    at the other stall, i was looking at a loose G1 thundercracker, asked how much....told $90. upon closer inpection i realised it was a reissue, then when i quizzed the dude.....all of a sudden it was $45.

    dissappointing for the most part, but i was happy with a couple of things though...

    * i was able to spot a whole bunch of ko's
    * i could differentiate reissue vs G1 loose toys
    * i could tell everything was massively overpriced
    * my wife and i had a nice little stroll around....
