Who got all the Chinatown minis!?
« on: February 19, 2013, 03:08:34 PM »
While I slept someone put up 38 packs of Stone Circle's OOP China Town minis at a ridiculously reasonable price and they all sold while I snoozed and before I could even see the email notification from eBay. Aaaaaargh!!!!!!! I've had this search up for 2 years and with the first bite I don't even get to bid!?  :'(

If the buyer was anyone on this forum, will you consider selling some of them considering how many multiples there are of each pack? I am guessing that maybe we will see them back on eBay in a week or two and selling for considerably more than the buyer paid for them. Apparently the seller didn't realize their potential.

It wasn't me, if I'd known about them I would have had a punt as well  ::)

I don't know who got those ones but...

I was fairly sure Spirit Games in the UK http://www.spiritgames.co.uk/ had some and Spirit Games are also mentioned on this website: http://www.miniatures-workshop.com/lostminiswiki/index.php?title=China_Town

They aren't listed on Spirit Games' website, but the shop is a not so little Aladin's Cave and there is an excellent chance that Phil simply hasn't put them up on his site.

So if all else fails maybe you can get them from this side of the pond.

NOw I'm really depressed. He had 2 of the last 3 packs I need to complete the collection. :'(

AND the seller linked to MY Displaced Miniatures gallery to sell the damn things! >:(

Sent him a message, maybe he can sort me out...

Went to a UK buyer, according to the seller. He is going to pass my wish list along to the fellow, but I won't hold my breath... :-[
