Re: Should I buy this...?
If I do buy the stuff, the first thing I'm gonna' try and do is get the few things I don't have.
If I've got anything left after that then we'll see what we can make happen. I'm waiting on a response from the guy. We're just trying to work out the date to get together...so, again, we'll see... Lharles |

Re: Should I buy this...?
When I evaluate lots like these, I tend to think about how much I'd be getting "for free" given standard resale prices. Given what I've seen things go for on eBay lately, that lot would break down as follows, assuming everything is opened, but in otherwise fine condition:
RotV 1st - $40 ($20 for the water, $20 for the terrain) SotM - $20 Castle - $20 Forest - $15 Lava - $20 Tundra - $30 Orm's - $15 Raknar's - $15 Wave 1: 4x $20 = $80 Knights - $20 Drones - $20 Krug, etc. - $20 Archers/Glads - $25 Other Boosters: 12x $8 = $96 Total: $426 Note that if the items were unopened, they'd be quite a bit more expensive (which always puzzles me, considering how HS figs are nearly indestructible). So you could eBay off $330 worth of that, pay eBay/Paypal it's 10% or so, and end up with about $100 worth of "free" stuff (paid for by your time reselling it, which could be considerable). I would say that it's an OK deal, but not great. If you needed most of the stuff yourself then it would be a slam dunk, because buying it all together would save you ton of time and a bundle in individual shipping costs. But I'd probably pass on it if it were just for trade bait or giveaways. |

Re: Should I buy this...?
That's even somewhat low ball for what you'll probably get particularly for the older waves.

Re: Should I buy this...?
Let me ask you smart folks this...
Can I reasonably expect to trade parts of the items in total for the items I still need? Specifically, the Onyx Vipers and the convention exclusives, (one of each - excluding this year - I have a friend who's gonna' hook me up with the new Agent one)? Lharles |

Re: Should I buy this...?
That's more about finding the person or people who have them for trade rather than the worth of something. More than likely if you search through the trading thread and post what you have someone will have them to trade with you.

Re: Should I buy this...?
It's like buying everything for somewhere between 25-35% off retail. That's not a bad discount, but don't buy it if you don't need it and don't want to have to deal with it all.

Re: Should I buy this...?
Sure, sure.
I just meant is the value equivalent to expect that I could reasonably trade items in that lot for the items I mentioned. |

Re: Should I buy this...?
Yeah, I gotcha'.
On a side note... Is it W-ih-n-d or Why-n-d? Lharles |
