In addition to the little plastic window, I think I also remember a listing of the contents themselves (at least for two boxes, the WWI French and German Infantry? |

I used to buy these back in the 60s for about 2 shillings (10p!!) a box. Still got some of em in my 20mm ww2 armies, though I've mostly moved on to other makes now. I can see why these valued like that, in the collecters market, still in original boxes. |

Its the 130 euros postage that cracks me up the most, if some fool was happy to fork over 3 and half grand for this, then you'd think he might just throw in the p&p..cheeky bleeder……Do you think anyone has told him what a prat he is? |

Maybe it for all the bubble wrap he will be using ? LOL. I wonder how many times he will re-list them before he buys a clue? Robert |

Then again, all it takes is one bloke with more money than sense to make his day. |

OK Gents, leave the bloke alone will you – how many of us have spent more on our little toy soldier collection? Glass houses and all that To be honest I may have spent that in a year, not now of course I am married, it was before I met you darling (cough) just in case she sees this. If you want to see a real ebay collector fest try listing a Citadel 20mm Dr Who Dalek – they were goung for £20.00 GBP each last week. |

I don't think the seller is being criticised for having spent too much -overspending on toy soldiers is a badge of honour in these parts. The reason people are commenting is because he is asking so much for something whilst being unwilling to vouch for its condition. |

When I first saw that, Thought it was 3500 LB for airfix, not GBP 3500. I thought that was a bunch of minis and checked it out. I collect airfix, have bought a lot off of evilbay, and would not toucvh this one. As for the amount, I spend way more than I should, but as I dont go to bars and spend it so much any more, the wife is not so hard on me about it. But for that amount I better be sure I know what I am getting. |

You never know what you might get in a bar. |

The market will / would decide what thesse figs are worth. If he had no min starting price then you'd see the bids roll in, (and discover their true value) |
takes the plunge.
