All with great starting prices and those juggernauts look impressively clean and unused. I also noticed that theres almost 1000 chaos dwarf auctions on ebay right now. I dont think ive seen that many at once before so its pretty impressive but a depressing amount are nasty buy it nows.

A lot of nice things to be found here...but for even the smallest item, the shipping is at least 10 GBP. I guess I'll just have to windowshop on this one. Too many toys and not enough cash to go around.

The lowest shipping is £5 actually but that is still way too high. Postage for a single bull centaur would no way be above £3-£3.50 for international. Maybe anyone interested should email him and point this out and ask for cheaper postage.

I see shipping of 10 GBP up and down the list, with the exception of the stuff that is even higher. Maybe it's a bit less for you because you're EU zone, whereas since I live in the US I am under "rest of the world".
In any event, you'll likely not get a lower price. When I've pointed out actual shipping costs to people with excessive P&P amounts, they reply that the extra cost is for the second "P"--packing. I never care for it when people decide to charge me just to roll a bit of bubble wrap around my item and stick it in a box, but I can understand it for mass sellers--the people with hundreds of items for sale, who must rely on a staff to do all the work. This guy doesn't appear to fit that category. But at least he is up front with the costs so you know what you're in for.

TBH packaging costs can be pretty expensive, in the UK at least. The only bubble wrap i can get locally is a 1m roll for around £1.99. Its a complete rip off but its all that available. Jiffy bags aren't that bad but its still about 50p to £1.50. This guy is just overcharging to be prepared for any situation i think. Maybe ask if he will partially refund if the packaging costs are much less than he is advertising.

Two things. One, eBay requires you to put postage up front, eg a friend of mine had this problem. He was only going to charge actual PP but if he guesses incorrectly in the form he gets screwed by eBay. So he would put postage higher than actual. His experiences with entering ridiculous PP and writing that actual postage applied didn't take...
Second, postage in Europe can be ridiculous. For one our a local profit hungry postal system charges rather hefty charges. Even the smallest package is 10�,� to start, domestic.
German names. Hopefully that'll keep prices down and scalpers away.

Actually, what bothers me is which eBay site it's on. I remember hearing that eBay's buyer protection program only works if it is an item that is shown on their main site. I did go to the main site and search and these are there. I'm still sort of iffy as to how that works. I'd think that if you opt for the "worldwide" option that it should show everything on all sites. I guess there must be some items that are simply specific to ebay.de or ebay.ca or ebay.au that maybe aren't available to the international crowd.
I sort of thought that once I got my juggernaut that I would be able to save time by not tracking these auctions, but I find that now I'm curious as to how much other juggernauts go for. I'll have to keep an eye on these.

Even if the seller listed it on .de he can pay extra for it to be visible on .com and .ca as well to increase views/bids.

He did, but not all do. There was another auction I saw and put a watch on it. But when went to ebay.com, opened my watch list and tried to open it, I was given the message that the auction in question wasn't available on ebay.com. I was given the option to go to it on ebay.de, though. So for items like that, I'd still be able to buy it but it wouldn't be available for the buyer protection program, at least as I understand it. I suppose that if it's a big concern and you contacted the seller, you could always have them add it to ebay.com, but my point was simply that if it isn't viewable from ebay.com that the buyer protection will not cover it. There are still other options you might use, like the Paypal protection or your credit card if you should pay using these methods.
Both Juggernauts closed quite cheaply, but I am confident that they are not original castings–they’re both too clean and one still has vents etc on it.
Of course, I may just want them to be repros, since they both closed for less than I paid for mine.
