I got tones of unpainted minies, mostly 6mm, but other stuff too. But I have not total track of what is what, I know this pack is mostly Napoleonics, this is mostly dark age. But not total controll on each pack. Some are ok enough, most of my baccus I can figure out of I think, adler is harder.
I also got some 15mm and 28mm. but not total control of were everything is. The question is, are they worth selling, There are quite some money, I think my dark age baccus cost me some £150.00 GBP when I bought them, but not sure how many I have painted or "lost" Add to that that private international shipping from norway is so expencive, I doubt it will be worth it for the buyer, unless I sell my figures for like 10-20% of what they cost me. |

Unless you are imminently dying then it is probably not worth it if you have to send it out. |

They might or might not be worth selling. I recommend sorting them as best you can and putting a price on each batch that represents what you want to get for them. If they sell, great. If not, you're only out your time. |

Take pics if you are not certain of what you have. The folks here are very adept at IDing figures. I would be interesting in 15mm, depending on what you have. I do mostly moderns, sci-fi, colonials, and Franco-Prussian. |

If you really WANT to sell them, can you try posting ads at your local game stores? Maybe folks nearby would be interested, and that would save the shipping costs. |

Gunny, you know you have to fly over here for Historicon one of these years. Take your unpainted lead to the flea market to finance your trip. |

It is a step by step process going from local through to international. It does depend on what loss you are willing to take. I had a 6mm army on EBay recently but it didn't reach the reserve price. I am not that sad it didn't sell, certainly not for 1/2 the outlay. |

SELL your unpainted figures??!!! You are one sick puppy! We don't have to stand for this sort of dirty talk, you know! |

I think I'll try and sell my baccus dark age, on TMP, it's an almost complete order, I also see baccus had raised the prices since I bought, that might make them more attractive for people. |

If you get a nickel on a dollar (or the pound equivalent or whatever currency) for unpainted figures, you are doing okay. If you do better than that, you are living high on the fat of the hog. And if you can't identify what you want, expect a lower rate of loss on return (or whatever you call such a transaction!). |
