These Auctions...

Post by BigD »

Guys,

I hope you both get them but from the research I've done to date indicates that FalconEye is a dealer. I'm just waiting on an email back to confirm as he's purchased quite a bit of stuff lately and he seems to have the cash to burn. I've won a few against him but I reckon I'm probably down an average of 3-1 on the whole. I may be a Auction Junkie but there are limits, and I've definitely found mine. DOH!

Otherwise another new person on the scene is VileGod, don't know who he is yet but playing the waiting game and finding out as we go.

I'm going along the same lines as Santa. I'm making a list, I'm checking it twice, gotta find out who's bidding alright... Well you know what I mean. Guess this is why I never become a poet.

I'm an Ebay addict since near than a year (after ebay bought a french auciton website), and I can remember I've seen vilegod a few times bidding. Some bidders, become "well-known" (if the fact we're talking about them here make them really known), and are known as last minute bidders :roll: , or without limits bidders...

DarthNoir and Paintbeast are the two who spring to mind for BB stuff.

Ebay Junkies

Post by BigD »

Okay, I'll admit it. I'm one of them and its a habit LOL A fun but expensive habit and I don't need to keep going out and buying a fix. Really. At least thats what I'm telling the wife LOL

I figure if it interests a dealer that much then there must be a bit more to it as well. Afterall they're going to be at least doubling to get their commission aren't they? Otherwise they're holding stock and that gets expensive in the long run and you can't lost forever on unsold stock alone. One day it has to be sold.

Also, you never know when the figure is going to come up again do you? Do you take the risk and come back another day or grab it now and satisfy the urge. I prefer the instant gratification. Okay? Its just a habit! I can give it up anytime of course...

Those prices aren't all that bad. I sold one of those Ogres about 6 mos ago for $50. He's definately worth having.

Ogre

Post by Relborn »

Okay Thadrin I don't think we get in each others way ;).

BigD - you are wrong :)) I am no dealer, but I am fortunate enough, that my job brings me enough money to support my little Bloodbowl Hobby.
And I can only say I REALLY want this Ogre ...

so good luck to everyone...

That Ogre...

Well lets just say its going to be interesting. You've already overbid me so as far as I'm concerned its WAR! Take this as a declaration on this item. Or do I say 'Self-Defence'?

The Board...

Post by BigD »

DFC - You're right of course. I shouldn't have said this, particularly with what the Americans are doing. Next time I'll PM, but I did want people to know that I'd been overbid by this TBBer on multiple auctions so they're not surprised when I turn round and do the same back to this person. Alls fair in Love and BloodBowl

Overbid

Post by Relborn »

BigD If I overbid ya in some auctions then not with intent. Next time let me knwo when I doing this (there is no need to push up prices).

I am not very long on this forum and have seen the ebay list just recently, so do not take overbids personally.

Bidding...

Post by BigD »

Oh I haven't taken it personally. But lets just say the last 6 auctions I've been outbid on really P***ED me off. There were a few items I was picking up for another TBBer. Thats all. And with that number obviously is must have been a mistake on your behalf. It must have been hard to up the bids on 6 auctions at least in error!

This Auction...

Post by BigD »

Hey Guys,

You've not long been outbid by a new person stepping up. Name of Jaillir with an Ebay Rating of 97. Looks like a pretty serious bidder with an interesting history. His history shows that BloodBowl Pieces are his latest acquisitions with previous interests in D&D and miniatures in general. Also buys from all over so you may want to keep an eye on it.

Also you only have 16 hours left so hope you're monitoring! Hate to see this piece go to a Non-TBBer!
