Just received 20 Foundry Great Orc mercenaries + assorted rammage. $20.50 USD + shipping. Yes, there's duplication, but so what? I love these guys. On top of that, I didn't win an auction for a Ral Partha giant squid, but the guy had another and sent me a second chance offer. It, too, will soon be mine. Some days you just get lucky. |

That is great. I love deals like that on eBay. |

And other days you wonder, how did I miss that deal? Good haul! Mark |

I love Landsknecht Orcs. Congratulations. They are fun, and even more fun is making Snotling dioramas with the "ramage", whatever that is. Let's hear a "Bwa ha ha!" for Neotacha! |

Grats Neotacha. Heres hoping your cup of orcs runneth over. Cheers GeorgeD |

I was very impressed with her catch. Since we both like the figures, a certain amount of duplication is a Good Thing. |

To be honest, I never came across such deals. Usually when I see a decent price there are like 87.7 people in a bidding war. |

I recently won the 1st edition 40k Compendium, Vehicle Manual and Battle Manual for £1.04. Not each, £1.04 GBP for all three. Postage was quite expensive (understandable given that these are three fairly heavy books) but it still came to less than £10.00 GBP in total. |

I love them too, although I bought them as a prerelease. They were expensive then, but cheaper than they are now. link I did buy a bunch of the other Kev Adams orcish miniatures in a lot on ebay for around $20. USD Haven't gotten around to painting them yet. |

We have some others we got somewhere. I just need to dig out the orc and goblin boxes and find them. They've not yet been cataloged anyway, so it won't hurt to do that. |

EBay is good for buyers, it sucks for sellers
. |
| Neotacha | 17 May 2008 10:11 a.m. PST |
I just realized it sucked even more for this seller than I'd thought. Got 22 of the orcs for my money. Lovely little guys; I may paint a couple this month (or rather, next month). Found the others; we have 18 different orcsies. Now I have to figure out what holes need filling. |

You lucky swine! My current eBay success has been much less marked – Bid on a couple of Clicky Mech vehicles for cobnversion purposes, a scratchbuilt OGRE Cruise Missile Crawler ( Less tahn buying the parts and DIY) and a job lot of mixed GZG, Pendraken, Traveller and assorted starships for FT that cost less with postage than buying just the older GZG items themselves. I won the two first ones, and am happy enough . . . But at the last minute, someone in the UK dropped a bid for £71, up from my £21.00 GBP Given the postage was also going to be £71.00 GBP it left me out of the running . . . Not sure wheher it was a keen bidder or just a nationalistic one, keeping those colonials in their place :) |
