im bidding on the 10 bull centaurs and the hobgob small army(x4 blisters) and the hobgob command group so unless any1 wants a battle id avoid these
OK THANKS
biklinictoo ia the only one who keeps his id private because his feedback is bad
biklinictoo runs the warhammer-crazy store selling cds at rip off pricess - he is essexgirls main competitor
what does swsnbn stand for ?
nah biklinictoo lives in lincs essexgril lives in essex i know them both and have had dealings with them both in the past . biklinictoo had a collection of mine that somebody sold him - i left them round a mates house and discovered them up for sale on ebay about a year later! biklininctoo / warhammer crazy sold me them back for the same pric he paid for them - i was so mad !
its worth noting that you can block certain bidders bidding on your items , please everbody try to do this so they dont fall into the hands of an unscrupulous dealer who will strip your hours of hard painted work away in seconds and sell on your stuff at 100% profit !  i have already blocked the main two dealers on bidding on my stuff and its working pretty well so far
id notice their shipping address/ name in the details and swiftly refund their payment! biklinictoo beat me in 4 auctions tonight it was so annoying . i  REALLY NEEDED around 3 bull cent and 1 taurus for a new army im making and he sniped them away from me GRRRRRRRRR

ps
has anyone here heard of the chaosorc? he has bighats for sale on his website so ive been told
biklinictoo is a guy from lincs who runs warhammer-crazy . swnsnbm runs theessexgirl's shop they are two different people . canix i thought you said your last buy from me completed your collection, the way you talk about stuff it sounds like you are planning on a bit of trading too, if thats the case i cant continue to sell you cheap models if your just going to sell them on at a profit its not fair!
biklinictoo is doing my head in he keeps beating me arrrghhhh . he asked me why id blocked him from bidding on my stuff so i explained to him what i thought of his expensive pricing and monopolisation of the market, and i let it slip there was a whole forum of people that he's discouraging . since then ive noticed his prices go down on his wolf riders from £15 a blister to around 7/8 which has to be the first triumph . on the negative side though he's stepped up his buying to another level ive seen him spend easily £500 in the last few weeks. it seems hes determined to snatch all the stuff away . maybe trying to compete with him is a bad idea because its driving prices up even more and he's inclined to bid on stuff just for the sake of preventing his competition getting it . its such a tough one to make a call on . he asked which forum i was talking about - his precise words were - "which format mentions me ?" lol . do you think i should reveal CDO to him , maybe it would have a postive effect, maybe a negative ? maybe this should be a thread of its own sorry if its not relevant ?!
nah rotcivbat and volmac have been buying a lot in my shop they both spent around 150-200 each on certain individual models and we agreed discounts, they are definetley putting armies together
i painted this dude and sold him for a tenner to this seller and he has more than doubled it and is selling it on in his store - this is one of the reasons why i hate these people so much!!! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?V...osi_widget
hat fanatic ill do you a set make me an offer
yeah its true ive had loads of dealings with him in the past, he also has a brother whose identity is unknown so theres 2  of them , read back earlier in this thread
I'll be watching them too, Steve - but don't expect me to pay £56 - for eighter of them Happy

I am currently winning this item :-)
I picked up another lot similar to this earlier this year  - however i already have several of them so i will be looking to trade them on if i win - so if i win it and if  anyone here wants a specific one please let me know
Thanks
Bryan


I want that lot too - but I don't think that I can affort it Sad

So you'll need a very big wallet to get these I think. Marauders don't come cheep - so with 8 marauders incl. the Mage and the xbowman - this could easily hit £100 - as it also holds the 4 Renegades variants of Doomaxe, Pulper, Drum&Drone and Mad Marik

But good luck - and if you do win I'm after these Marauders:

MM90/1b, 1c and 1d, MM90/5b and 5d

And I would like the Renegade variants as well.

So please let me know if you are interested in trading these!

@Pyro S
How come you need a second Marauder Xbowman (MM90/5b)? What is you plan for this one then? Happy Something you haven't told us ?? Happy

I am expecting to pay over £100 - i picked up 35 of them for £125 about 4 weeks ago    - so a similar amount would not shock me

I want the mage and the classic named marauders that I don't have already  - however i don't want the x-bows and various other bits - I will PM people when and if I win in the order they have asked for things and offer them to them in that order

I have also spotted this item http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?V...0221317867 which is a massive load of classic shields for anyone interested in it


This on - right?:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?V...T.m240.lVI

So that was you Happy - I went for that as well but stoped at £103 Tongue

That was a great lot - quite a few of my 3rd ed wants in there - but no Marauders i think.

Any dublet from that you might like to get of your hands - like:

Growler Beardhead
Hardgrab Hammerhand
Finehorn Deathscream
Mainliner Deathwipe
Barin Spikehead
others!

then please let me know!

@Sharkboy
Ahhh! you found those 6 as well. I did too Happy.

I will be following it very closely, as it has 2 of my wants - including the most wanted xbow guy.

And yes - one should be careful with making accusations - but Scottish Rocket's stock seems to be unlimited.
@ Sharkboy
No, you are so right - it won't come cheap - and it's not that I have unlimited resources eighter. I just said that I'll be following that auction very closely - but if it goes sky high (as expected) - then I'll keep my money safe Happy - and I'll wait for the next xbow to show up (Those last 4 Marauders .... why are they so hard to get?).

And yes I saw that auction of 13. Spotted Naurthang Blacksoul and Azakil Bonecruncher right away Happy.
And you are still after Lufin Bristlebeard and Telegrim Flamebeard I guess. So yes - that auction could benefit us both - so best of luck from here Takes Hat off

And then there is the auction of 11 (endning tomorrow night). That auction holds on of my most wanted 3rd's - the last C16: Finehorn Deathscream - G! I would really like to get hold of that - too.

the world gone topsy turvy, I was following some hobs on ebay, my 'tinternet was down all weekend so couldnt bid, then I look this morning....

Oh my. My hat almost fell offShock

Sniping sucks - but as Willmark said it's nessecary.

And yes, I also do snipper bids myself- but I would really like to see a feature extending the auctions, when you get outbidded within the last 1 min/30sec. or so. Really belive people should have a chance to concider a second bid - if outbidded.
