I am very excited and so I want to share my excitment with people who can appriciate it.
I purchased a ENTIRE Chaos Dwarf Big Hat army from eBay, with the intention of keeping several pieces that I needed for my army, and then selling off the rest. As I did a rough calculation that the same of the parts of this army was worth more than the whole army, but as I have fallen in love with the WHOLE LOT, I am now keeping it. It is a lot better painted that I had originally expected.
Can I just say, the listing had NO picture, and no-one bid against me. Basically I was the only bidder. That was great, the only downside is, I now need to sell some other stuff (namely books), to pay off the $750 I borrowed to buy this army, hopefully I can do this in a month or two.
Here are the details (photos are coming soon)
Purchase Price: AUD$750 (included registered post), this converts to USD$764 or GDP£474

Wow! That's a find and a half, makes me a little sour. Those sorts of finds happen few and far between. Enjoy them :)
inkpwn
Please don't be sour. I have missed on MANY good deals, either I was too late, or I simply didn't know about it. I think I was just VERY lucky this time.
Don't even think about it. It was worth a shot. :)
Good deal, luckly it gots to someone who likes chaos dwarfs and not someone who wants to make money out of it.

I was tempted to sell some of it off, but I adore these little fanged guys too much. So they have ALL been recruited into my existing army. I am scared to work out how many points the whole army is now. Oh well, at least most this new army is painted to a standard that I am happy with.
epic find! nicely done! - was it on eBay?

It was on Aussie eBay. Chaos Dwarfs are a very rare occurance on our eBay. I usually have to buy them from overseas sellers. So this was an awesome find.
Congrats…thats fantastic…there are still deals to be had on ebay…but you sometimes have to take a risk…like you did…paying that much for any army with no photos is a leap of faith…but it worked out this time…can’t wait to see pics!
