Quiet selling, and planning

Hi!

I've been quietly selling some of my figures and boxed games.

I sold some

6mm:- Sassanians and ECW armies.

25mm MiniFigs Pisidians and some Paphlagonian officers.

15mm keep

Space Crusade Eldar attack supplement

Space Crusade Mission Dreadnaught

Heroquest-the original game and four supplements:

Return of the Witch Lord, Kellar's Keep, Against the Ogre Horde and the Adventure Design Kit.

Several books, mostly from the 1980's early '90s with some later armies and enemies and men-at-arms books.

All these have helped with the recent purchases for the various projects. It hasn't really solved any shelf space overly much!

The bids on the boxed games and supplements was way above what I personally would pay but I'm happy they went to people who would value them. And that includes all the items sold.

As I prepare to go to the US, I'm deciding what to take with me. I do have quite a bit over there as it is. The Five Parsecs and Five League figures and terrain. The Frostgrave figures and terrain. The Wild West 15mm Tombstone Tinderbox set. And the 6mm Bolt Action British and Germans.

So far I'll be taking the 6mm BA British and German infantry I bought to expand those forces a little.

Definitely the Zona Alfa, Five Parsecs. And the 15mm buildings for the Wild west.

The rest I will leave behind, including the VBCW and 6mm Napoleonics and the Witchin' Hour figures. All of which (not witch!) pains me considerably! But I will if I get residency.

I did request a quote from a whole collection buyer with a view to selling the Alexandrian and Classical Indian 25mm MiniFigs armies. The offer came back as £0.20 per figure, and that was for ready painted figures. I thought that was more a steal than an offer so I turned that down. I'd rather give them to my younger brother than sell them that cheaply. Which is why I sold those figures on eBay. Some other items didn't sell which is a shame.

Was I being unrealistic in their value, besides emotional value to me? No, I don't think so.

Perhaps when I come back I'll take them to shows where you can rent a table or through a bring-and-buy at a wargames show.
