Hi,

my Missus sends packages all round the world every week.

The last one to be lost was to a UK address about 2 months ago.

Previous to that was April 2007 (to italy.... don't shout!

)

So not that many get lost.

Mind, these are CCGs, so the packages tend to be small and lightweight,
and are probably less likely to get stuck in a sorting machine perhaps?

Cheers,
Malc

Malc,

I take it that was you who won the Hex Pad? Pretty steep...

Hi,

yes, it is me :roll:

I only need about 20 items for a complete 1st/2nd ed collection, and thats one of them.

So before the the exchange rate gets much worse I though I'd treat myself.

Cheers,
Malc

No. There is deffinately more margin in consumable powders than in collectable paper products. So I think they'll stick with the shirt business rather than diversify their interests in the current economic climate. I'll leave a more complete analysis to those on the board with greater experience of the lifestyle banking and futures market.

This week I've been mostly eating . . . The white ones with the little red flecks in them.

Is Misty Isle by Wee Warriors really the same size as the volumes from the white boxed set?

http://cgi.ebay.com/Lot-of-20-misc-role ... 286.c0.m14

Also, what are the contents of "War of Wizards" about?

Seller also has a Dwarven Glory up too.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... %26otn%3D4

Plus:

"The Vanquished Foe" by Wee Warriors,

"Labyrinthine" by Wee Warriors,

a few Invincible Overlord sets,

alot of buildings for miniatures,

and Alarums & Excursions, White Dwarf magazines.

These have all been posted before. And the War of Wizards isnt complete unless the seller just happens to have the counters and the game board. And the Misty Isles is about the same size as the the booklets from the OD&D sets.

$10 each for a set of 6(used to be $2.99 each, the seller boosted the price for some reason today

)

Gee, only a SLIGHT discrepancy between the gallery pic and the pics of the actual cough item up for sale.

Let mirth prevail!

This is the same item I posted a page earlier in this exact thread.

The seller is not only stealing his item description from The Acaeum but is also stealing Troll and Toad's pic from the PotVQ they have in their store. The auction was taken down a day after I posted it here and the seller has put it right back up and hasnt changed anything about the description.

Listing has been removed as well......perhaps they are going to get their act together before releasing listing to such a 'discerning' market
