Splintered Light will have several tables in Dealer Hall, and one of them will be partly for unloading some old stuff. Lots of minis, both painted and unpainted, both fantasy and historical. They will be priced to go away. Probably a few board games and some books, too.

(Off topic, I'll be doing demos of PRIDE OF LIONS on part of the table, as well.)

VonTed04 Feb 2013 6:17 a.m. PST

Will the Flea market be up and running with most people there on Friday, or do most people wait for the weekend to set up their tables?

What kind of 6mm buildings? I won't be at Cold Wars, but I might be interested.

epturner04 Feb 2013 2:23 p.m. PST

Hey Oddball;
What kind of 1812 and AWI? I'll be there on Friday, but the rest of the weekend is shot. Maybe we can do a deal.

You know, a deal – deal.

Eric

Karl von Hessen04 Feb 2013 7:09 p.m. PST

Oddball, I'm interested in the AWI stuff too…if Eric leaves anything behind!

Extra Crispy can you p.m. me AT cjaklic at verizon DOT net?

I signed up for a table as well and am bringing several boxes of 15mm medievals from feudal to late as well as a bunch of 25mm medievals as well. I also will have some painted ACW 15mm stuff as well as some unpainted ACW. I will also have a stack of rules and some gaming mags to get rid of. I have other odds and ends as well and hope to move it all. I am moving soon and just don't have the room for it all.

Allen

Karl von Hessen06 Feb 2013 3:30 p.m. PST

Cardinal Ximenez09 Feb 2013 10:11 a.m. PST

Will be there for all sessions and Sunday if need be.

Well painted, based 25/28mm Arab, El Cid, Crusade, SAGA. 8-10 units worth.

15mm painted and unpainted odds and ends. All periods.

Renaissance ink bases left over from a rebasing project. Some flock and glue on them but VERY inexpensive.

A very large lot of Weapons and Warriors seige engines, defenses, infantry and cavalry. Heraldry stickers are still on their sheets. Orange ammunition included.

Maybe some 15mm "The Drum" European buildings and bridges. Not yet sure if I want to part with them.

Books and magazines for a buck.

If anyone is interested, loads of mint 1/18 scale Ultimate Soldier US and German infantry, vehicles and buildings. Prices won't be crazy but I won't be giving them away either.

Some prints and artwork.

1/100 scale diecast aircraft.

Many other items as I decide to part with them.

Assorted miscellaneous Foundry packs.

I attend Friday of every year, and flea market doesnt have much. Maybe, i get there too early?

Just a painter11 Feb 2013 10:44 a.m. PST

Moe I was looking for the old Ral Partha Imports Romans and Huns from the 80's.

P Duggan12 Feb 2013 1:14 p.m. PST

@p Dugan
I have 2 LT-5 tank kits, 20 space type fireball suits and about 30 other mesuline figures.

Dervel Fezian14 Feb 2013 6:02 a.m. PST

Well I had planned to sell a bunch of 28 mm very beautifully Painted Samurai (Dixon), and a bunch of Dark Age figures including Vikings.

Unfortunately, my trip to Cold Wars just got cancelled by work issues this morning :(

Karl von Hessen18 Feb 2013 5:59 p.m. PST

Anyone have Kevin Dallimore's 2nd book they'd like to sell?

vojvoda20 Feb 2013 9:09 a.m. PST

While you can NOT use papal or credit card readers in the flea market you can link up outside of the flea market or after hours and do it.

Why does HMGS give a hang as to whether or not someone uses Paypal? That seems like meddling for meddling's sake.

historygamer21 Feb 2013 7:05 p.m. PST

I agree. Software to do banking is increasing exponentially. A friend of mine sells such stuff and you can't believe where it is headed soon. Pay Pal is old hat, and most people who have accounts who aren't dealers. It seems a poor way to judge if someone is a dealer or not. They don't stop people from writing checks, do they? So what is the difference if it isn't all on a cash basis?

rick3222 Feb 2013 7:20 a.m. PST

I will be bringing:

Dragon/Takara 1/144th prepainted vehicles/Aircraft (WWII)

Bob's Bits 6mm Paper Buildings (original stock)
15mm Unpainted Napoleonic/War of 1812 (Battle Honors/Old Glory)

Rick

epturner22 Feb 2013 9:12 a.m. PST

Rick;
Your Hessians and Eureka FIW Provincials sound luv'erly…

So do your Foundry Prussians and Russians.

Which day are you selling?

Eric

Karl von Hessen22 Feb 2013 10:45 a.m. PST

Rick, I'll be interested in whatever Perry Hessians and/or SYW Prussians. Could you PM me at:

cjaklic AT verizon DOT net

For whatever EPTURNER doesn't want….If that's possible!

BTW, Eric, did you contact Oddball about the 1812 figs?

historygamer22 Feb 2013 1:31 p.m. PST

So do you think past Hcon tshirts would resell? Honestly, I never wore them. I think I have two size L from the Seven Years War theme, and one from the Africa theme. Not sure if they'd be worth putting on the table or not?

Cardinal Ximenez24 Feb 2013 4:56 p.m. PST

People always buy everything you didn't think would sell.

Can't explain it. It's just that way.

So yes I would bring the t-shirts.

DM

epturner25 Feb 2013 2:06 p.m. PST

Karl;
No I didn't. I suppose I better get meself in gear…

Work has been a bear lately.

Eric

epturner27 Feb 2013 7:04 p.m. PST

Hey Oddball;
