Value of Black Block Dice?

Post by ZanzerTem »

I've been doing a bit of research and was wondering what the current value of a set of 2003 NAF Black Block Dice is worth. I have 4 dice, and may be willing to trade 3 of them for the right incentive. Ive been looking to pick up a High Elf team but since I refuse to give GW any of my money, and there are no suitable 3rd party alternatives (IMO), I have been considering picking up a used team second hand.

So, how much is a set of 3 Black Block Dice worth?

EDIT: Also it should be noted that the ink in them is in great shape and has not been worn out at all, so they are in near-mint condition.

Depends who you talk to, but they have gone on eBay for approaching £80.

That was when the pound was relatively weaker though.

How did you get 4 dice when the NAF only sends out sets of 3?

I realise that the pic you posted isn't your dice, but something you linked, but if your dice have silver inlay like in the pic, they aren't worth much as they aren't the 2003 NAF dice.

The inlay in the pic looks gold to me.

Mine have gold inlay. AFAIK the NAF Black Block Dice were all made with gold.

I have 4 dice because a buddy of mine gave me all of his BloodBowl stuff. He originally had a set but lost the other two.

That pic still doesn't look right to me. The original NAF black dice had a darker gold inlay (more like old gold). The ones pictured look too bright, like they were repainted. But whatever, just my 2 cents.

80 GBP for a set of dice is among the more asinine things I've ever heard of. Having said that, if you can find someone to pay you that, nicely done.

Bloody hell. THAT MUCH for those dice? I could buy a whole (2nd ed!) team for that. :o

I feel like I should stop using my set, now...

Tho' I usually use the pink/silver ones from...what? 2005? 2006? Something like that.

Anything I say is totally opinion and (knowing my luck) probably completely wrong. Keep this in mind.
