Well, I'm capped

Good luck selling the teams Zinak, they look awesome and I can see you are going to do very well out of them!

Hi Zinak,
it's with great disappointment that I can see that the skaven team has moved out of my current price range.
Great for you though

A quick question:
Was the entire team (apart from the rat ogre, rerolls and round bases) fashioned from a single plague monk regiment box, or did you also use bits from elsewhere.
I liked your team so much that I'm tempted to do one myself ( minus the excellent paint job of course).

Cheers
Martin

Well i got the battalion box and that had enough todo 2 team in it minus the gutter runners. The battalion box has the plague monks 2 rat ogres and the models i used as the storm vermin minus the shoulder pads which come from kroot sprus. fo rthe gutter runners i used the night runners box and selected the bodies which look the most like robes.

Hi Zinak,
I'm happy to hear that you're selling more teams.
Here are a few ideas from me:

*Always use both bloodbowl and blood bowl in the item description. Not everybody thinks to check both spellings.
*Close-up pictures are more important than full team photos. We want to see the painting standard.
*Make the teams available to both USA and Europe. Forgetting about Europe loses you a lot of potential buyers.
*If possible make 16 player teams. That will make your team more appealing to coaches who play in leagues (like myself).
*Also, paint full quota of position players - people who buy painted teams can rarely (be bothered) paint an extra mini or 2 themselves to your standard.

I've been watching ebay for 6-12 months now, and for some reason skaven and undead are most often for sale. That lowers the price. I was quite surprised to see your skaven team get so much. I guess that means that there are always buyers for quality stuff

Teams that are very rarely seen (and might therefore fetch a high price (?)) are:
wood elfs (but then again, the official team is so ugly)
gobbos/halflings (but there may not be many buyers for those)
amazon
lizardmen
khemri
necro
rotters (but note that a new line-up has been announced in the vault).
ogres

Like Valen, I'd be interested in Ogres. (+ skaven, amazon and necro).
Please note that it is very likely (but not guaranteed I guess) that the official ogre line-up will change. This may or may not impact your chances of selling.
(The old ogre team is 0-12 ogres, fill up with gobbos. The new one is 0-6 ogres, full up with snotlings - and I guess most coaches would be happy to use gnoblars as proxies.)

Good luck driving the bidding beyond my range

Cheers
Martin

I would just like it to be known that as people pointed out the skaven team I bought was not a full roster, I did request that Zinak possibly convert and paint a thrower for me, which he has done at his own cost, what a nice fella

Cheers Zinak

Erm, when did snots creep into the ogre team? Or is this still in vault?

I was caught creeping into the cheerleaders bedroom.

People just assumed I was on the team.

Hi Hoomin,
>Erm, when did snots creep into the ogre team? Or is this still in vault?

Yep, its vault.
But the official ogre team has taken a lot of heat for its "growth potential" (namely the 12 ogres), so even if vault keeled over and died, I figure something would happen to the ogre roster.
