Title: Grizzley, Black Widow and Cobra all on Ebay
Post by: Topkick on June 16, 2008, 08:23:11 AM
I went searching for the Warzone auctions Veez mentioned in another thread and when I type in a search for Warone in the Toys & HObbies category I found  - among all the other goodies - an offering of the old Warzone resin goodness.

Black Widow

I plan on trying to get the Black Widow and GEV.  I have a Grizzly, already, so no need for another one...

If anyone else is desperate for the BW or GEV, let me know, as I would certainly be willing to back off the GEV.

I have always applauded our community on their willingness to avoid conflict and on the courtesy we extend toward one another on ebay. That beings said I would note that these extremely hard to find resin pieces are so rare that such gestures should be suspended and may the best man win. This is merely my opinion and I hope no one gets so upset about getting outbid on these pieces. I do not want or need any of these pieces but may the best man win...and post pics of the completed pieces.

For very rare and hard to get things I agree with Topick. Other easier things communication should resolve issues. A higher bid may force others to release said models IMHO.

I know my willingness to pay for a Grizzly and it's gone up measured in dollars (gotta love the weak dollar). :)

If someone here has a higher willingness to pay that's fine with me. I don't want to unneccessarily push up a fellow forum members price though.

Hmm, shipping is going to be high for the Grizzly. About $40-50*.

*That is international shipping for a 10 pound package.

The weak dollar works both ways, unfortunately. 

International shipping from the US is very expensive, especially since the Postal Service cut out the International Surface rate.

I will be bidding on the Cobra GEV-12 not either of the other 2. If it goes to high for me i'll let you know that i've reached my limit.

Actually,  I think that I will have to give this group a miss.  Finances are just too stretched right now...

Hoping these all end up in the hands of forum members.

Good luck, all!

BTW - these items were listed by TimDP who some of you might know as "Armorcast Tim". He was part of the old Armorcast team before Ginfritter and Armorcast Matt bought the company.

Well I'm the current high bidder on the Grizzly. I am sure I'll be outbid though and I don't have the time to snipe on Sunday so I'll just have to wait and see.

The Euro is in the drivers seat. Grizzly and Cobra both went to Europe.
