naf blocking dice

heh don't worry

one thing I would say though, don't let your perceived lack of skill put you off entering a tournament. Although it's always nice to win a main prize (not that I know

) the best part is simply making new friends or reuniting with people you've met before. The actual BB games are usually a close second to the social aspects. Try it! I'd recommend the upcoming Pearly Kings & Queens tournament in London - check out their site here

looks good, will give it some thought. I have W40K final and WPS GT in march already, the wife is not impressed; But she may fancy a trip to london though. Thanks for the post

there are more and more UK tourneys springing up, not to mention the European ones. beware though, once you start going they are addictive as hell

and why are you playing 40k?? ditch it man, BB is much better!

Just a humour post realy. Played four games of blood bowl yesterday and the set of dice i am NOT selling rolled nothing but skulls and push back. I saw the funny side of dispite loosing all for games. Bab khama or what

They all roll like that. For some reason, if you use a white and a black die, the black ones are the ones that usually come up with the POW. Weird huh?

No disrespect to you Orthodub (glad you got a good price), but why would anyoe in their right mind (especially someone "wise") pay £21 for something they can get for £7?

I hope people don't make a habit of selling their NAF dice... it could jeopardize the NAF being able to get more in the future.

Darkson that is also the source of my confusion about this topic. when i bid for an item on ebay i look at how much i can obtain it for, take away the sellers postage costs and then bid. The dice can be bought for six pounds minus my £0.50 postage costs, so i was seriously expecting people to pay no more than £5 at best. Yet here i am looking at a screen where someone is paying four times what they are worth and he is not alone in bidding.
Having spent some time thinking about it i dont see what the fuss is about, these can be bought off the internet via NAF membership by anyone so why bid so much?. Surely a few emails to those bidding on the dice would stop this as should bidders see they were paying way over the odds then surely the trade would die out as bids were retracted.
To reconfim to those not realy following this thread or auction (it has been amended several times) i have no intention of selling my other set of NAF dice or any set of NAF dice in the future. This is a one shot deal ment to give me some money back after i joined the NAF twice (dont ask

) and when i started the auction i had no idea they would fetch so much money, realy.
Well here's a question, if these dice fetch so much money then there must be a large demand for them so why is GW not responding to it. If they produce the dice anyway why not stich them in a BB Blister and sell them.

I have trouble explaining many things GW does. They have seriously blown this one though. They used to sell a blister of dice can't figure out why they ever stopped.
