I'm trying to make some duckets

edited June 2010 in Social Entropy++
So I'm tryin' to make some duckets since I owe my friend a bucket of ducks.

I realized that I never play warhammer 40k anymore and I need money desperately, and all of my friends have moved on to magic.

So I am flippin my army

How do you guys sell excess stuff? I posted a craigslist add, and I guess i could put it on ebay, but I straight up wary of the latter

oh here is my offer tell me if I sound like a crazy man
I'm selling my Warhammer Collection that I've been accumulating since the mid-90's; I have a full Imperial Guard Army, enough Marines to form a 1000 point or so Army, the Witch Hunters Codex (which lets me utilize my guard and WH units - however, I do not own any sisters). Included is my massive Imperial Guard army that is focussed primarily on infantry tactics, i.e. fire by rank and issuance of orders. I have enough heavy weapons to issue one or two to each squad and then some.

In addition, many of the models are vintage and difficult to acquire because they haven't been produced for five or ten years, and I also ordered a few vintage guardsmen pewters for shits and giggles. The IG army is composed mostly of Cadians, but I also have a few Vostroyans, Tallarn Desert Raiders, Valhallans, and Catachans.

Besides my IG, SM, and WH (I converted a WH HQ, and I use guardsmen as storntroopers, etc), I also have a new ork battleforce with some addittional stuff I bought for it. It's essentially a speed freak army; it came with two mobs of ork boyz, a wartrukk, and three bikes. I purchased two mega-nobs and a character HQ leader, in addition to a pewter squad of 'eavy weapon boyz with heavy sluggas and anti-tank stuff, etc. I also have a number of Rhinos (one of which is broken - on purpose - for eventual conversion to a Wartrukk), three SM bikes, and two SM hovercract from the '90s I was going to convert to buggys. My Rhinos are extensively modded.

In additional, I also have all the sprues for a land raider kicking around somewhere, but no directions, thus leaving it unbuilt. Altogether my brother and I have dropped probably $2000 on these models, and it's nigh upon impossible to find some of the individuals I have. I'm also a big magic/gaming/warhammer/cash enthusiast, and I'll willing to bargain. But I suspect any experienced 40K player can see the deal here.

If anyone is interested, I can take pictures. It's just a bitch to unpack 108 guardsmen and their armored support.

Please contact me at FANDY'S NUMBER

How are you guys making money today? Besides those of you fellating fellers in a dirty bowling alley bathroom

    The guys in Critical Failures might be interested in your wh40k stuff. They would probably point you in the right direction if you can't sell it.

    I've pushed a good amount of excess gaming crap (Heroclix/Heroscape/Warhammer of both kinds/Magic) through Bartertown. It's really easy, and I never had an issues.

    Hell, if you'd like, I could help coordinate the stuff for you.
