    some of my collection is posted in photo's in the merchandise section, on this site.
    I have been collecting since 95 and have turned my spare room into a Bond room.
    Your right about the prices of items, and how some have dropped in price over the years. My most expensive item would be the Golden gun. Had to insure collection seperate from house and content insurance. I have put some items on e bay at the mo to make some money for other items I am after. All the best with your collecting

    I've just moved house, as a housewarming gift I treated myself to this original MR poster.

    Once I've sorted my office out I'll post my other Bond goodies.

    The "Life" one was at my local Target for $11. Pretty good magazine. Has things on every film.

    I have managed to purchase a Skyfall World Premiere Programme through Skyfall's UK Facebook page, for £20 which is going to charity. I'm rather chuffed, not only because it's going to charity, but because they are selling on ebay for £50 and more.

    More items to the collection today:

    > James Bond Fragrance 50ml Limited Edition Gold Bottle and Packaging
    > Agusta Westland Italeri AW101 Gunship Die Cast Model - Skyfall Edition

    I've been meaning to dig out my Bond memorabilia all year and still haven't got round to it. (Well, you know what it's like - it's sealed in boxes behind/beneath other boxes which are behind/beneath yet more boxes and...) Anyway, whilst up in the loft yesterday I came across a long cardboard tube postmarked 1980 featuring the following posters:-

    American TMWTGG 41" x 27"

    Haven't a clue how rare/valuable these are nowadays. Just now how precious they are to me.

    This gorgeous SF premiere brochure arrived in the post today. Just £20 including postage direct from Sony Pictures. Still available according to the official SF Facebook page. Why spend 60/80 quid (and more!) on Ebay?

    Well, this one can fetch anything around £500 or above, @quantumofsolace.

    The others I'm not sure about as they are specialized from the foreign market, but the Thunderball looks like it could fetch anything around £700 upwards if it's from the 1965 original release. If it's from a re-release in the 1970's it would be considerably less.

    Thanks for the heads-up, Bondsum. I'd never part with any of my collection - but it's interesting to know how much things are worth. I've got tons of posters, FOH sets, lobby sets, pressbooks, stills, etc. Just need to dig them out. If only I had a huge mansion so that I could actually display them all. Seems daft having them hidden away in cardboard boxes. Such is the madness inherent in collecting any kind of memorabilia!

    I know how you feel. I've got box upon box of Bond memorabilia hidden away. My house is not big enough to display all. It is madness. I don't quite understand just how it came to be that I went from a handful of items to all almost room fulls!!

    That's quite alright, @quantumofsolace. Sounds like you've got a fantastic collection and one that could fetch quite a lot of money if you ever felt the need to part with it. The only FOH set I have is the UK LALD ones which I recall buying for £5 back in 1978. I kind of kick myself over the missed opportunities I had at acquiring some of the earlier memorabilia, such as an original OHMSS poster with a £50 price tag in the early Nineties. I should of snapped that one up!!

    PS. I know what you mean, I'd never part with my stuff either.

    I used to love seeing FOH sets outside cinemas alongside the quad poster. It made for such an eye-catching display.

    I think every collector rues "the ones that got away".

    I don't have a photo of it, but I have an unopened box of micro-machines Bond edition. If you know what I'm talking about, was in the 90s.

    Actually, I just found one online, this is the same as what I have.

    Skyfall: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack on 12'm LP Vinyl

    Very nice it is, too! Shame there's a really low res picture of Silva on the back, which is very noticeable when compared to the others.

    My daughter of 9 gave me QoS the dvd for Christmas, I almost threw her on the street untill she told me that she had bought it from a bargainbasket in a supermarket for €0,50. I am now kind of pride she knows the value of certain things. ;)

    I guess this is a (very) long shot given how much time has passed, but does anyone know if these are still available direct from Sony?

    DN ger 2sh is rare as hen's teeth , unfolded even rarer.....1k is not out of the question. , at least when it's virtually perfect (even a lesser one would still fetch good $$$ due to rarity)

    TB ger 2sh (htf but if you've patience , it's out there......just like with YOLT it was issued thrice there).....2-3oo£ would be a good deal for it (in C8+ state , minor flaws allowed)

    TMWTGG you got is also very rare , the one with Scaramanga in the shadows fetched some serious coin recently.
