some juicy ebay-auctions

Ah, Master Milo, you might like to know that two Hobbits rode into Bree this morning and said you’d sent them to look for me. They’ll have a wash and brush up, I expect, and then put on some brightly coloured clothes. Haven’t decided on the colours yet, though.

Good news !
Do not forget to show us painting results.

I bought to this seller many MIB minis, all you receive is what is described.
I am please by miniatures but not with the smell.
It seems all of his collection was in a attic full of rats and his blisters stink rodent urine ! 😡

I ask the seller to open the bids worldwide instead of only UK.

All in MINT condition. – New Auction

81+ Rare to Very Rare – Discontinued M series Mithril Miniatures. All unpainted and parts unglued. Only used for display by an adult collector – ME. Every single one is from 1988 – 1993. All are individually poly bagged with their parts/horses/bows etc…

THERE IS A CHANCE that a very few have been re-released by Mithril. I don’t think this used to be their practice HOWEVER when I looked them up on the Mithril Faerylands database ALL were listed as DISCONTINUED and RARE to VERY RARE.

I am going to list the M #s – but I am not typing out all the names. You can look them up on http://mithril.faerylands.eu/index.php?action=mansearch&ref=M3

M3, M8, M9, M11, M12, M13, M14, M15, M19, M39, M53, M54, M55, M65, M66, M67, M68, M69, M70, M71, M72, M74, M76, M81, M87, M91, M92, M93, M105, M106, M111, M112, M120, M124, M126, M128, M131, M137, M142, M143, M155, M156, M182, M194 M207, M208, M209, M210, M212, M213, M214, M217, M220, M221, M229, M231, M233, M235, M239, M242, M245, M247, M261, M266, M,267, M268, M271, M272, M273, M274, M275, M281, M283. MS297. Mithril Fellowship 1.

Notice there are 81 individual M#s – However I have some duplicates. Not very many but a few so you are actually getting more than 81. Only about 3 are missing say a hand or sword. I will try and find these before the auction is over If you think the price is steep consider that its less than 35$ each for very rare to rare minis that could be sold for much more.

I have cancer so I’ts sort of a thing for me to get these sold and get bills paid. I’m listing hundreds of items not just minis so I didn’t have time to mess with taking over 80 pictures etc..

Thank you and HUGS – Jackie

Good luck in both issues!!!!

Good luck in your selling Jackie, though I am a bit perplex about the starting bid at $2000

You are aware that the prices mentionned on the database are an indication of course, and this can change a lot lately the prices have been decreasing… also, all prices for figurines above M100 are given for mint “blistered” figurines. you have to remove 20% of the price if it is unblistered.

without the M7, M10, M16, M73 and M78, nor any prototypes or early Christmas specials (32 or 54mm) I can’t imagine this could reach such a high price oO

many figurines in your list have a value of no more than 10€ IF they are in blister. while there is no figurine individual value above 40€ or so and still .. the average price of your figurines is 35$ each

Thank you guys for being so nice.
As to my pricing – I had no idea what to put on it, I didn’t know you guys existed so I couldn’t ask for any help. Also I’ve never looked up minis on Ebay as I always just bought what I wanted from the dealers directly so was unfamiliar with normal prices. How do I find about what a particular one is worth? Or better said what is the conversion rate for that amount that shows on the database vs dollars? I’m a pretty clueless American who knows nothing about the economy of other countries or their money systems. I did learn stuff in school of course but that was so darn long ago…. ANYHOW If it doesn’t say $ I’m lost.

Any help or even just chit chat would be great!!

HUGS – Jackie

P.S It probably wont help but I added a whole bunch more to the Auction. 117 now… I keep finding the little things in among my hundreds of other manufactures.
