Interesting Pirate Lot For Sale

[Scouty]

Hmmm, a brickshelf find, somebody appears to be selling their collection, or as it seems:

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=272204

I just thought I'd bring this up in case anyone was looking :capn: .

(It's a nice collection)

[Bonaparte]

Most interesting find!

Seems like he plans to sell this via Brickshelf since he put his email address in the title.

Maybe someone can send this guy an email and ask for the price of this marvelous collection.

Now there'll be competition between forum members to buy this :-D

That has never happened before...

[Scouty]

No, it hasn't, it did a wee bit once, but not much.I was wondering if this guy was going to sell them all as a whole or set by set.

[jamtf]

The best way to get this out of the way is selling each set separately. Of course, this is time consuming and you possibly have to deal with many people if there are different buyers involved. It is often written on eBay that they sell everything in one huge lot due to lack of time.

The guy would be best of if he opened a BL shop or sell everything on eBay if it needs to be sold fast.

It is a nice collection with mostly early models (6276 E.F. and 6285 BSB to name a few) and lots of the early generic pirates with striped shirts and blue vests.

he's currently asking for approx $1000.00 for the full set but will depend on the minifig count

[Mister Phes]

The mini-figure count looks quite generous - someone count them for me X-D

[Joey Lock]

They have emailed me back and i have found out this.

Hello

We are working on a list of the items we have. Prefer

to try and sell it all as one lot at this time,

however we may part it out on ebay.

Looking in the $1,000.00 range, depending on the exact

list and minifigure count.

Anything we ship must be valued, tracked and insured

for the exact amount.

We got burned on a claim from JellyBeanUK earlier this

year.

Hope this has helped :-P

One...two...three...

Thanks for the information Joey Lock and amdy_0306uk!

I saw this one on brickshelf as well and was going to post it but didn't found the time... Great someone else did.

This indeed is a good collection of pirates, I will not consider buying it as a whole but I am interested in the 6250 Crossbone Clipper. Let's wait and see how it turns out.

[Mister Phes]

Did you know I have two Cross Bone Clippers? X-D

[simonwillems]

Did you know I have two Cross Bone Clippers? X-D

That is soooo unfair, I have none..... :-/

[Scouty]

Did you know I have two Cross Bone Clippers? X-D

Boo! I have none either.....well...I do. It's not the set, but it's hull turned into a ship.

[Scouty]

Meh, double-post...who cares? X-D !!!

Anyway, it looks like this guy is updating his/her folder up and looks like the lot is a whole lot bigger.

And take a look at this:

:capn:

340 Figures....Holy Shipmate. An hour away from Chicago...and ebay listings soon, interesting! Keep your eyes peeled.

Looks like it's gone, there's still these though...

Anybody in need of a crew?

[Mister Phes]

What's the link to that eBay auction?

[Scouty]

No ebay link, you just email the person, as indicated in the picture. This is a brickshelf sale!
