Tips for selling a Blood Bowl team

Meradanis · Post by **Meradanis** » Fri May 04, 2007 12:03 pm

I've never sold anything on ebay. Since I fell in love with the (female) elf team from shadowforge, I don't need my GW (pro) elf team any more. I'm not sure if I should sell the team complete or in parts.

I've got the 12 players team box (2 blitzers, 2 catchers, 1 thrower, 7 linemen). I've bought those missing players directly from mail order, 2 catchers, 1 thrower, 1 lineman, 1 elf cheerleader. I've got every lineman model 2 times, every catcher model 2 times, both blitzer models and both thrower models. So it is maximum variety. They are as good as new, I did not paint/undercoat them, nor glued them on their bases.

Would you recommend a massive 16 player + cheerleader auction, or two single auctions (the box, and those 4 extra players + cheerleader)

I would so go with 1 auction for the whole lot.

If you seperate them, some might sell, and others won't. Also, a lot of people want a full team, not singles.

If your painting is good, it might also be beneficial to paint them. Well painted teams can fetch quite a bit of money.

Not an option for me. My painting skill sucks, and I need something like 10 hours for a single mini.

Ok, sell them naked then

Always sell the whole team together. People would rather get a full 16 off ebay than 12 from GW then piece together the rest. You did it already and made sure of different poses. Sometimes even new GW teams in the box repeate poses when they shouldn't (I got 2x the same Norse Runner in my pack)

(I got 2x the same Norse Runner in my pack)

If you mean the thrower by the runner that is possible because there is only one model for norse throwers.

In reply to the first message, you got to sell it as a whole team. Put a little picture by the auction and sell. 16 players is what coaches are looking for.

Nope, it was the old Catcher model not the thrower. It's ok, I eventually bits ordered the others.

I'll get a picture online later, need to grab the camera of a friend of mine.

No ebay auction so far, because I don't know the IBAN number for international money transfers.

But if you're interested, I'd sell them directly, too.

Thnx, Ill pass the link onto the mate who's interested.

I've done the picture.

Sorry for those unreadable red letters, the jpg conversion screwed it up. As you can see, they're as good as fresh from GW. I did nothing with them, even the box is in perfect condition.

If someone is interested, please send me a PM with an reasonable offer. Please keep in mind that the 12 player box is worth 35 Euro/25 GBP/45$ and those 5 extras cost 4 euro/2.5 GPB/ each, so I won't accept offers like 20 Euros.

I'd even be interested in a barter trade. If someone has a unpainted Vampire or Skaven team he don't need any more and is searching for elves, you can me PM as well.
If no one from the TBB community shows interest, I'll sell them at ebay.

*bump*

Seems like no one is interested. I'll start an ebay auction next monday, unless someone from the TBB community wants to buy them this weekend.
