Hi all,
well the expedition was a partial success. I got some stuff for myself, and they're quite nice, although the humans are a bit thin for my taste. Anyway, I got:
interruption - WARNING - I GAVE THE FULL PRICE BELOW - SO ALL COSTS ARE TO BE DIVIDED BY 2 FOR THE 50% DISCOUNT!!!) 
a Stone Spike (a stone elemental thingy) Lm3.33 (7.7E, 10US$)
2 skeletal dogs (nice!) Lm3.33 (7.7E, 10US$)
an Abysmal MAw (a bit like a Squig with hands) Lm3.33 (7.7E, 10US$)
A Hammerer Lm4(12US$, 9.3E)(link)
A human glaivier (part of a set of 3 models)
A very nice war ape, looking like an infuriated babboon with metal gauntlets. (very cheap at LM2.40 - 5.6E, 7.2US$)
Justin, I purchased the sorcerer and an ogre - if you've changed your mind, there's no problem, I'd be happy to keep them.
sorcerer Lm3(9US$, 7E)
ogre (but the one I found has a wooden club and a snarl) Lm4(12US$, 9.3E)
The paladin Justiniel asked about and the Felldrakes Warmaster suggested as Eldar steeds are available only in starter packs costing Lm11 (25.6E, 33US$) for the paladin (with 5 other human models and a Hammerer) and Lm6 (US$18, 14E) for 2 Felldrakes, with 2 elf models, a sorcerer and a warrior.
I also have 2 extra Hammerers at the price above, if anyone is interested. Maksim, who asked for things robotic, has 1st dibs, with CS second, as it's not the one he asked about - or you can have one each. ANd if you're not interested, anyone else can have them - I'm tempted to keep them myself. Postage has to be checked, but they're light enough not to exceed LM1, I'd say - this does mean a 75% cost rather than 50%, of course. I would also accept a trade of course.
If anyone else wants anything, there are some gnolls, gnomes, orcs (including a nice orc druid), a starter set with a mix of models (LM11), army starter sets (LM11 each) for Ahmut's legion and Mordengard, more human sorcerers and skeletal dogs, a few humans, some zombies, a centaur firing a bow, another stone spike, a set with a hobgoblin, an ogre and a goblin for LM6, and some dwarfs. The costs for the single models vary between LM2.40 to LM4. No hurry - they're still not shifting.
The quality is good, although the detail is not GW standard. Some flash, but cleaning is easy. The humans and elves appear a bit thin, bit this is perhaps because of GWs chunkier designs. The Hammerer is a bit bland, but can be detailed, or painted up, to look better. A small Squat Titan is one possible application. The arms are separate, and philospohers of L-4's school of thought can fit the close combat weapons with long range arms easily.
Cheers,
John
