Hi all, regularly check flea bay for various items, and always check for epic fordgeworld stuff and a seller is selling the old fordgeworld buildings for £124. Are these people crazy for listing these things at such a price as people surely wont pay that.

Shame stuff like this falls into dealers hands, not that im against anyone making a profit but thses prices are just plain crazy!

Regards epic

It is kinda crazy! I guess he's hoping for a rich someone with silly money and an epic fetish. I'm pretty sure he re-lists the same items repeatedly, when no-one buys them. That said, looking at completed items, I see he sold a single Salamander scout tank for £15, which was what 9 times what it used to be sold for?

It's the chap selling a used Forge World book for £56.33 I really don't get though, as you can buy it new for £45. This one's also trying to sell old Forge World catalogues - the free ones you'd get with each order from them - for £15.33 each ::)

Yeah madness... I note he has relisted some items at cheaper prices in past though. e.g. 35 GBP down to 25 GBP.

makes me want to accidentally drop my FW buidlings in some rubber and then accidentally pour resin into the resulting mold, thereby creating a copy. Having such a copy, I would then find myself in an unfortunate position of having too many buildings. The only remedy to that, I am told, would be to sell the originals on ebay for a tidy sum.
