eBay Spring Cleaning with SST

[MongooseMatt]

Hi guys,

This was posted in the General Discussion forum, but it will be of interest to some here. . .




The Babylon 5 batch has just completed, and even as I type ships are being packaged up for the lucky winners, ready to see service in new fleets!

Got another lot for you now. Mainly Starship Troopers items (with a smattering of Paranoia, Mighty Armies and office detritus), we have the usual mix of demo and playtest models - along with some 'specials'. These include a fantastically painted LE standard bearer, the Forth prototypes and a fully constructed, fully painted Skyhook Retrieval Boat!

This time round, we are running the items for just three days (after we opened the last set of drawers, we realised we could be doing this all year!), and the starting rates are rock bottom, so everyone can have a chance of taking part.

As always, you can find the items here;

Probably not going to get the ones I want, but that's life...

I must have those Forth!! Unfortunately there are those who will probably pay more for them than I would, so I'll never get them.

If enough people think that way, you might!

Set yourself a limit and see what h appens, someone massively outbid me for the 15mm T'bolt but that's what happens, they were just willing to pay more for it than me.

Good luck to Hiromoon and Bubba Ho-Tep. "Bid Again" at 50 paces..

 

[Haitower]

Hey Guys would be great if you can let me the Evo skinnies...

 

[Hiromoon]

Sure!

 

[Bubba Ho-Tep]

Ok, everyone is not to bid on the Forth, because I have mortgaged my house and they will be mine. :twisted:

 

[Hiromoon]

HA! You have to wrest them from me, Bubba!

 

[judgedoug]

I will be very sad if Mongoose auctions off the dropships to various bidders.

Perhaps we should form the Drop Ship Collective now, in order to bid on the dropships, if they get posted. That way if we have a couple dozen people involved as ONE person, the bidding won't get so out of hand, and then we can get the models cast for everyone in the collective.

Or Mongoose could just cast them on a limited basis for the fans.

HA! You have to wrest them from me, Bubba!

Ok, you can have the painted ones, I'll wait for the unpainted ones he mentioned, maybe. :twisted:

 

[Hiromoon]

well, one of the issues with bidding against people who use the currency that the auctions take place in.... I'm not willing to spend $200+ USD for a single model, no matter how much I REALLY want it.

whom ever is major-stransky, I shake my fist at you

 

[kcronos]

If you guys think its bad to bid on something, and not win it, try not having a credit card or the such, i cant even bid on any of these awesome things which sucks. oh well, too bad for me.

 

[Hiromoon]

Whomever darkphoenix99 is.... *shakes fist*

HA! You have to wrest them from me, Bubba!

mentioned where?

 

[Hiromoon]

In the blurb next to the picture in each of the Forth auctions.

 

[Bubba Ho-Tep]

Someone out bid you on one Hiro. :twisted:
But I see you jumped right back.

 

[Hiromoon]

Yeah, and thankfully it costs him just as much as it does me! He's an f'ing yank!

 

[Hiromoon]

Sonova..... Well..... it's now no longer cost effective for me to go for the command walker .... it's at 102.00 pounds... with a rough conversion of $200+ USD.... whom-ever Bidder 3 is...bah!
