Warhammer Pricing Help

[A_Train]

Looking for help from an avid Warhammer players on the forums.

I have the potential to buy an assembled, but unpainted Warhammer Chaos Army. It would include:

Core:
21 Warriors with halberds and shields
15 Warriors with hand weapon shields
6 chaos knights

Special:
20 Blood letters

Characters:
1 Lord of chaos on a dragon
1 Exalted Sorcerer on daemonic mount
1 Exalted champion of chaos on daemonic mount
1 Exalted Champion of chaos
1 Aspiring Champion of Chaos
2 Sorcerers of Chaos.

Here's a link to the pictures he's provided (which are not that great).

Could anyone tell me approximately what this is worth? He has been trying to sell it on the ads locally for over a month, so I don't think he is getting a lot of offers, so I'm hoping to pick up a steal, if possible.

Go on to the Warhammer website and find out. I figure thats kind of obvious but i doubt anybody wants to do it for you.

I would need to see the how well they were assembled.

[A_Train]

He said I can take it all for $100, which doesn't seem too bad, since a pack of 12 Warriors alone costs $42 here.
But I am also worried about how well they are put together, based on the pictures above, it looks like a bit of a mess. I may be better off starting with the WoC starter pack (or even the skull pass starter).

Thanks for the reply, Jormi Boced.

100 dollars is probably pretty good for all of that. I noticed that isn't the new book in the pictures though, and those cards while neat are not used anymore either.

[A_Train]

Yes, it is the old book, and cards. As well, the bloodletters are no longer with the Human warriors. I also worry that several of the hero or sorcerer figures may be out dated as well.

[Jormi_Boced]

Well I know they still have sorcerers, and they have some pretty powerful spells too.

100 bucks isn't a bad price. You'd pay alot more if you bought all that stuff new.

A couple of points, the deamons are now there own seperate faction from chaos. That army book and the cards are obsolete.

Not a bad pick up if you're looking to get into the game. You'll need to pick up the new army book for chaos, as well as the new chaos deamon book if you want to go that route. Also you'll have to buy more mini's as this doesn't look like a fully done army.

So, if you're using this as a jump start into the game, its a good deal.

If you're looking at this like a plug and play type thing and don't want to invest any more time, money, effort, than this is probably not for you.

Just remember, Warhammer is a very expensive hobby. Even doing it "on the cheap", can still end up costing quite a bit.

Hope this helps.

Very expensive hobby?

I would say it is probably more towards the inexpensive side. You can spend as little as a few hundered on it.
