I see you put that unit of 15 up to £31. Thanks. Now leave that unit of 10 alone.

I don’t mean to start a rukus, but am I not allowed to buy things I want?

I honsetly dont care if you want to turn into the next insanitybyte or karld. I was hoping that you would be satisfied by the crossbowmen you already have. As you know fine well i cant stop you from buying or not buying what you want so dont ask the question as its only purpose is to start an argument.

This is such a good scheme, as a buyer of Big hats I have been screwed by Essex Girl and the other guys many times. I had purchased off them a few times before I realised what they were upto. I however had the last laugh for a while when I found out you could still get BC and Blunders from GW direct. I mailed as many watchers on their sites as possible to inform them…

I could not believe what shsnbn was trying to charge for 5 BC at one point, £78!!! and you could get them from GW direct for £7, the only problem was they had spelt Dwarf slightly wrong in the search function…

But keep up the stirling work gentlemen and I will contribute when I can.

The thing that annoys me so much is there efforts in raising the prices for Hobgoblins, the wolf riders are so ridiculous now, they try to charge £15-£17 for one wolf rider. Luckily I have found a few bargains that these parasites haven’t but I am a long way off getting all I need.

I am also selling off some of my excess new WFB minis to pay off some bills…

These can be found on my Ebay shop here (good prices I can assure you)

PS I will be putting up a few un-needed CD items next week, I will block the parasites and give you guys first dibs…

They used to be on ebay all the time. Well i used to see them all the time before i stopped searching Hobgoblin in ebay. They didnt look that cool so i never bothered to buy one. From what i remember they went cheap.

Key word to that statement is “used to”, unfortunately hobgoblin prices (as noted above) have been increasing in price now as well.

Even those old ones? Wow. I knew the newer ones had rocketed in price but i still thought the old ones were fairly cheap. The prices for old 3rd edition CD's seem to be lowering as well. I was high bidder on a marauder for days and forgot about it and won it for cheap.

Gil is giving away a free gift it the price goes above £34. Thats probably why it went so high.

A common "goblin spear chukka worth £8" :) - well done gil^ - I like that :cheers :cheers But speaking of extortionist pricing though - I'll say that this item (the spear chukka :)) is totally overpriced then :o
