I'm also glad I waited until I was home, and sitting down, before I saw the cost - wow!

Ok, here is one...

A lictor for $43, but it MUST be a good deal, its 5% off!

http://www.ebay.com/itm/181677287766?

I see a lot of this - and I am wondering if the person just has unrealistic expectations (or someone who sold them something mislead them) or if they are just hoping someone will buy such an outrageously priced item.

Thats one heck of an assembly fee!

So, I don't get it.

Are these sellers merely INCREDIBLY mis informed, or are they just hoping some customers might be?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Necron-Destroyer-Squadron-/131323562997?

Even better is suggesting that the retail on this is $263.

What a discount !

Okay not ebay, but still pretty fun. Look at those prices, with no pics AND with that supposed color scheme. First off, the Seahawks lost! Second, does this guy realize how narrow a field of potential buyers this limits too? A 40K player, Seahawks fan, eldar player... be easier to find a unicorn farting rainbows on a lillypad while talking to a crowned frog prince.

No idea if this price is ever going to find him a home, but it's an intriguing piece.

Citadel MANCHESTER RABBIT(Games Workshop store opening Special Event only miniature)

Own a little piece of incredibly rare Games Workshop history!MANCHESTER STORE OPENING EVENT ONLY RABBIT!!

In the 80s Games Workshop used to produce special `Store Opening`Event only miniatures.These were only available in very limited quantities to people visiting the store on opening day.

This rabbit warrior with sword is probably the rarest of these special edition miniatures.(He`s a fantastic little character too!)

He HAS `MANCHESTER`SCULPTED ONTO HIS BASE.

Games Workshop never produced another rabbit miniature like this!!


it's the sort of thing I'd throw down <£50ish on if I knew it was original, and I had a flush week, due to being from the area, and loving small forest creatures (no, not like that).

6 Carnifexes for 50 squiggles?

Seems like a nice deal.

(Although knowing these ridiculous exchange rates that's $300...)

Due to the success of the first the seller appears to have found a few more to sell. It like a license to print very small quantities of money.

I'm gonna go ahead and say this is the most frightening eBay title I've encountered recently.

It's also as far as I'm aware, entirely wrong, but nobody seems to know what that badge is for (Tactical Space Marines?)
