Hey guys,

I’m having another reluctant sell-off of epic models, as I have literally zero income all year and I don't have enough money to pay my rent and bills for the coming month. Managing till September (the earliest I can get a job) is going to be quite a challenge... even if I do find somewhere to live in a tent this summer and possibly dabble with living on freegan food from the bins of a local supermarket.

Lookup glyng on eBay UK to find

A list of most of what I’ve got up that may of interest:

25 Tau Hammerheads and Devilfish + Stealthsuits and Command
3 x Stormswords
2 x Lucius pattern Shadowswords
9 x Basilisk Platforms
17 x FW Leman Russ, various kinds
40 x stands of Catachans
3 x lots of OOP plastic Epic40k IG Commanders, Primaris Psykers & Coms.
Chaos Demon Engines of Khorne
Multi-part FW Space Marine
5 x EpicA Space Marine Land Speeders with Multi-Meltas
EpicA IG Sentinels
EpicA IG Storm Troopers
Rare 80s GW Art Books (the John Blanche one is particularly good) and Xenology
Imperial and Chaos Titan heads and a Deathstrike Cannon
Ork Gunfortresses, Dreads and Killa Kans
Half a dozen Ork Squiggoths
Great Gargant and a Slasha Gargant
BFG Ork Kill Kroozas and a load of smaller craft
Squat plastics and an Overlord
8th Ed Warhammer Rules
Exodites

A company of Grey Knights + Dreads and Land Raiders and a nicely painted 2,500 Orc & Goblin army are going up again in time, but I have an essay to write first.

Thanks all!

Glyn

Good luck chap :-)
Let me know if you end up down south in Devon and I will be happy to come cycling down to you and my place in Bristol is always available for a shower or few nights respite if you'd like!
Chin up, and keep at it!
Yrs,

That sucks dude

Due to your circumstances, you should try a silent auction on this site and sell stuff to the highest bidders. That way you would get the same price (most likley) and save on all the ebay fees etc.

I will be looking as well.

I doubt the people around here would compete on price with eBay for the likes of the various OOP FW models, or rare GW books.

Maybe and maybe not. For a consistent person who is known as well as GlynG is on here, I would think that people would not mind paying a good price for such items.

Then again, maybe the groups I hang out with are different and not so frugal to help someone out...

At the end of the day, if the silent auction does not reach a respectable figure for GlynG, he could always use eBay as a last resort. It is just another option to help out a fellow enthusiast, that's all.

This seems to be a thread more common each passing week. If the world spins into turmoil, Epicollector will end up with every Epic army in the world.

Thanks guys! The main reason I’ve gone for selling on eBay is I don’t really know the value of things and would probably undervalue them if asked to name a price for friends/people here – for example if you’d have asked me to guess the price my last big lot of stuff would go for on eBay I’d probably have estimated £500-600 whereas they actually went for £1,100 and there were things that went for a lot more than I’d thought and others that went for a lot less. I realise I loose around 10% from eBay fees, but it determines a good market price for things, without me having to think about it, so I don’t mind it too much. The idea of silent auctions for some stuff could be possible though, I’ll have a think.

For clarification I’m not planning on getting rid of all my epic or anything; I still want to keep a good collection, just not the insanely ginormous one I had. I need to seriously downsize generally anyway as I have no home to fall back on or store things since my only family passed away, and the less stuff I have to ask around if people would mind storing for me while I go live in a tent and off travelling is all for the better really.

+5 points for keeping at least some Epic.
-20 points for using the non-word 'ginormous'.

Of course you will. Bad for you, bad for the Epic playing community, but GREAT for Glyn ;D
