Hi!
I am currently selling 1st Ed. Dwarfs and 2nd Edition Dwarfs, Chaos Dwarfs, Elves, Dark Elves and Goblins on Ebay.
This includes two miniatures of the unreleased Chaos Dwarf Player 6.
My Ebay ID is Jaillir (http://shop.ebay.de/merchant/jaillir).
I will add 2nd Ed. Halflings, Big Guys (incl. an unrelease minotaur), Orcs, Skaven and Snotlings in the next few days (also some Necromunda minis).

I happily ship worldwide. Shipping costs for EU are €9,50.

Are you going to bring the minis yourself?

EUR$14 postage to Australia!

Dude, take the base off the mini and reduce the postage. The price of postage alone is enough to not place this on a watch list...

Well, about the postage issues:
I would be happy if someone would let me know when there´s a cheaper way to post things from Germany to the Rest of the world.
The postage costs are the DHL costs and include about 1-2 Euros for packaging.
The shipping costs are high for a single miniature, but as I do combine shipping costs each additional miniature will normally not raise the costs (unless you buy all the miniatures I list).

P.S.: €14 to Australia uninsured...

I am not sure why you would not use the German mail system? Are they not safe?

Alot of minis I sell are without the base (so it is flat-packed) and placed in a 'bubble-bag' and sent as a letter (because it fits through the slit of a letter box).

well.....that's how we do it downunder, anyways....

DHL IS the German postal system Frogbear

Just send the birthday present to my Grannie back home and had to pay 14€ and it's not even airmail

Well... my girlfriend who lives in Cologne sent me often packages (big ones) and they are big.. and they cost 8€...

So I wonder how it could cost you so much...

I didn't know 'Big Ones' was popular in Spain too

You are in Spain and my Grannie is living on the other side of the Atlantic, that's why

Sorry for my last comment, now I understand.

From DHL site:

Pluspäckchen Europe 2 kg EUR 13.50

Päckchen L+W+H=90cm (no one side longer than 60 cm.) EUR 8.60
with Premium service (priority posting) EUR 12.90

Anyway, you should go on riot, this is outrageous

Compared to the Canada Post prices, they are very acceptable. My Mom spend 150$

last year to send the Christmas gifts to Germany.

This year she told me to buy them in Germany and she'll wire the costs to my account...

And have you consulted the possibility of sending it by UPS or other shipping companies? "Perhaps" it is a little bit cheaper (I don't really believe it, but have a look at their website couldn't harm)

Where my parents live, I do not know if there is a UPS or FEDEx service point and if there is, the truck usually comes around once a week.

RL conversation with a businessman living in that town

"OK, I'll send the original to you with UPS."
"Actually, use certified mail, the UPS truck was there yesterday, so even normal mail would be faster..."

And no they are not cheaper, I did check them out when I came back to my senses after passing out seeing the price or postage on the box...
