Some New Listings on eBay

I put a few new listings on eBay, which has shifted my main focus from just games, to now, Lego/ Mega Bloks sets, and games.

I've noticed that since putting the first ones up, yesterday, I've had a lot more traffic coming to the eBay account, and some of these are currently being watched, which is cool.

I bought a few cardboard boxes for shipping, but my god, the shipping cost is stupid money. To counteract the initial cost of postage, I've lowered the prices manually, by €5-10, and in doing so, I'm hoping my listings will look a bit more appealing to potential customers.


This is one of the shots of a Night Ops Gausshog.

I have a lot of figures for these sets, and I noticed that there are many listings which don't include the figures, so I'm hoping that will help my posts stand out too.

This is missing two small pieces, an antenna, and a half shield for the turret, because of that, I marked the price down a bit from what it typically goes for.


Here's a shot of a Night Ops Wolverine, with its figure.

This is fairly cool, and I would gladly hang onto it, if it didn't sell.

There are some ships that are just too big to display on shelving, unless of course I bought and put up new shelving for them, which I don't want to do right now.

Smaller ones like this though, could be displayed. But, the way I look at it, I'll put them all up, and keep what doesn't move, or decide to un-list things based on the money that comes in.

Once I reclaim some of the cost of these items, I'll choose what to keep.


This is a fairly cool shot of the vehicle.

This set is complete - to the best of my knowledge - but some decals are peeling, which is normal considering its age.


Here's Kylo Ren's Tie Fighter, and a figure of him.

I don't want to keep this, because I'm not that into the newer Disney Star Wars stuff, but there are people out there who like it.

The design of this ship is pretty cool, but it's essentially a Tie Interceptor, but bigger.


Here's a birds eye view of the ship and figure.

It looks cool, and you can get a good idea of the scale of this thing compared to the figure.

For each parcel sent, I'm going to try and keep the ships intact, to the best of my ability, but in some cases, I may have to dismantle them.


Here's BB-8, and Poe, next to the X-Wing, with their accessories.

There should be some terrain piece, and another two figures, but these were the only ones in the vehicle, so I'm selling it as incomplete. Not only for that, but also the fact that there are two missiles missing from this one as well.


With its wings out, it looks pretty cool.

Again, though, I don't want to keep these particular vehicles, because they don't really bring anything new to the table, in terms of design. It's just an X-Wing, with a paint job.


The glass is fairly clear and scratch-free.

I'm happy to have some of these vehicles up, and I'd be thrilled to move some of this stuff because my office space is turning into a bit of a hoarder's wet dream.


I have some other things to list, and need to just take pictures of them. The next thing is going to be about 13 or so special figures of the Halo Series, with stands.

They'll be cheaper to post than these vehicles, and will only need to be posted in a small A5 Envelope.

Looking good ! Don't forget to send your watchers an offer about 24 hours after they add it to their watchlist. Also, if they've got figures, make sure you put that in the item title (if you aren't already).

Ebay likes accounts that add a few items every day, so it sounds like their search algorithm is starting to notice you 😀

Yeah too right, hopefully this will make them push my stuff a bit more. I get stuff posted early and haven't had any complaints so far, which is great.

I did let it slip a little and went a few days not uploading. I need to work on getting a backlog of stuff photographed for uploading, which will help me upload stuff daily.

I was checking out some Lego in John Lewis today. There are so many sets and there are a few I'd like, but I tend to leave it for Xmas suggestions. I've not looked into second hand kits, but I did see some at a market a while back. They can be expensive.

I hope your sales go well. The postage costs can be high though.

Yeah, some sets can be ridiculous money, especially if they're retired sets that are hard to come by. One vehicle I have is worth a fair bit, but I'm thinking of keeping that one, as it is fairly rare on top of the cost.

Some second-hand kits seem to be cheap, but sometimes come disassembled, which would be a major pain to sort, and construct, but could be worth it. Even if they're missing pieces, you can actually get the manuals online, and order particular pieces that are needed.
