That's far from being a massive stash...massive is anything over 10,000 kits!

Wonder what Manny will say about this?

Lately I've been saying to myself, "WWMD?"  What Would Manny Do?  Sounds like an idea for another thread.

I'm embarrased to say that there's only 52 kits in my stash and I plan on selling several of those at one of our LHS.  Wonder what's the story behind the sale?

The deal killer for me would be the fact that he doesn't accept any returns. Propeller Big Smile

$3200 sounds like a lot but if you count up how many kits he's really selling (even with the figure sets) and the price per that works out to be (even with the $800 shipping), it's not a bad deal if you want an insta-stash and like the subjects he's got available.

I think Bish mentioned it, he's got to break that up. His only hope of a one-shot sale would be somebody starting up a new hobby shop. Or somebody sitting on $4000 that is just burning a hole in their pocket.

Wish I was that rich that I have money to burn so I can buy and ship them oversea to our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan to keep them entertained.  Anybody out there rich enough?  I'd even come to help to pack!

Cool idea! But no, not that much coin sitting around here. (Still working on the $229 kit issue! Whistling )

That's a LOT to ship that stuff.  I ship bigger and heavier stuff all the time and it's insured for a lot more than $3200 for a lot less than $800!

Nope, wasn't me mate. But i think you right there. He would probably make more selling it seperatly, just would be more awkward. Only chance would be a seller who deals in second hand kits.

Theres a few kits there i would like, but not enough to buy the lot.

I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so

Less awkward, rather more time consuming to sell seperately.
