RE: [praetorian-IG] Re: Hello Chaps

Well I hope I haven't offended anyone- it certainly wasn't my intention. And I agree after having seen some of the conversion work by members in this group, that the best home for these minatures would be with one of the group members. But the simple dilemma is that if someone emails me saying they'll pay £ X for something, and then someone else says they'll pay £ X+1 for the same figures, how do I convey the message that the original offer has been outbid with any credibility on my part? I could be making the whole thing up for all you know! :D

And unfortunately having just graduated my finances are in such a dire state I can't afford to operate on a first come, first served basis I'm afraid. So while it is the run up to Christmas, and demand may be high, so too is supply- there are quite a few Praetorian lots on ebay at the moment- prices aren't noticably higher than usual for these minatures.

Anyway, it's nice to see such a group thriving- brings back fond memories of my gaming days!

All the best for the festive season chaps!

If i could not purchase a unit from you i would prefer another member of this group have gotten the figures instead of them going to ebay for all to bid on perhaps going to someone from outside this group. That being said I step off my sopabox and hope you get good money for them. It's the holidays so ebay is packed with shoppers- especially for 40k since apocalypse was released. The forgeworld and armorcast i had I sold for double what they were going for last year and more than I paid .
 
Best of luck

Hi everyone,

Since I recieved interest from a number of you in the same units, I've started listing the troops on ebay.co.uk.

So far I've listed the Pyran Dragoons (just search for 'Pyran' and they should show up if you're interested), as well as the painted (albeit rather poorly) platoon of Praetorians (just seach for 'Praetorian' ) into 2 complete lots.

I've also split the Platoon with the rocket launcher heavy weapons squad up into individual squads (again search for 'Praetorian' )

That's all that is presently listed.

The platoon with the Lascannon heavy weapon squad has been split into separate squads and the auctions are scheduled to start on the 25th November 7.30pm (GMT)
The platoon with the Autocannon Heavy weapons squad will be listed as a complete platoon and is scheduled to start on the 2nd December 7.30 pm (GMT)
Both of these can be found again by searching for 'Praetorian' (once the auctions have started).

Postage costs in the UK will be as listed in the auction- for overseas bidders postage will be as follows-

Complete Platoon - US $20, Canada $21, Australia $25
Individual squad- US $11, Canada $12, Australia $14.

There will of course be a postage discount for multiple items bought.

Hope that is of interest to some of you. Apologies to those of you who have already expressed interest in buying privately- as I've said there were conflicting offers on some of the units, so I decided ebay is the safest most impartial way to do this :)

Cheers everyone,
Matt

Good God those shakos are beautiful! While it's unlikely I'll have the
coin for it, I would be interested in price as well.

2000 points. Plus the 36 converted guys with Shako helmets. The photos

anyone wants to buy bits and pieces from different photos/groups- no
problem :)

but have never really got back into playing unfortunately- not too
familiar with the newer ruleset (in terms of army structure etc) but
if memory serves I have about 3 full unpainted (I was always rubbish
anyway!) companies of Praetorians, as well as 30-odd Praetorians
wearing Shako helmets (can't remeber the name of the regiment they
were being converted to!)

be sticking them on ebay soon, and will post links to the auctions.
