Firstly, I've bought cards from online retailers (usually because I have enough copies of the ship but want more copies of a particular upgrade - Hello Mr. Khiraxz, I'm talking about you and you're single copy of Crack Shot!). The thing you have to be mindful of here is that something is only worth as much as someone is willing to pay for it. Your only two options, if you are set upon owning a copy of the card are to pay £6 to an online retailer or pay £17 for the Star Viper expansion. Personally it's a 'no-brainer', but if your sense of moral outrage is preventing you from saving your self £11 that's your prerogative. But there really is no point in moaning about it... Sorry! 
autothrusters needed
The amazon price for a starviper in the UK is 16.47. A fair price for the autothrusters would be around 6-7.
So you value all the rest of the pack around 3-5?
Let's say I have a Starviper model for sale, only I've taken out both Autothrusters. Would you pay 12?
No, but I also wouldn't pay 6 for a single Autothruster. 2-3, yes, but not 6.
Fine. Can you tell me what price you would pay for a Starviper without Autothrusters? How about 10?

It was a trick question. No one wants a Starviper without Autothrusters.

With a brand new one selling for $13.97 USD I'd just as soon get the ship and cards I guess.
Funny thought I might pay $1.00 USD per card but I don't know if I'd go the other way.
It is a rip off; there are 2 UK websites that sell Autothrusters for less that £2.50.
Blue Rat Games and Big Orbit Cards.
That is when they've got them in stock.

I'd rather pay the $15CAN for the whole set of cards, and then enjoy re-painting the free ship. Especially for the K-wing... (Starviper is fuglier, sorry, saying it).
The starviper will be great when Scum Aces comes out.

Or, you could just use the fact that it's the second most maneuverable ship in the game (after the Tie Phantom), and fly it like it is.

I wud say between £1-£2 a card would b fair instead of the ppl on ebay are asking £6.50
A fair price is what the buyer considers fair that the seller will agree to. So £1 is fair.
I do think the StarViper is worth getting for itse, as it is a _fun_ ship.
How many AT cards does one need? I havent seen anyone running more than 4 ships in a lust that have the boost action...
Buy 2 Starvipers, get 4x AT... Enjoy your ships and extra copies of acurracy corrector and inertial dampeners

The most you can have is 5 A-Wings or Alpha Squadrons, but would you want to? It's tempting though...
Maybe if you field for more than one person, but even then.
Starvipers are nice, and that's speaking as someone who was very hesitant to get one in the first place.
I guess there's just something to be said for the image of two StarVipers side by side and then Segnor Looping, one left and one right. The image is just too feral. They need to growl.
You could try joining this Facebook group. Seems to be lots of UK buyers and sellers on there.
Not many Aussies though.
