In the grand tradition of being behind schedule, my daily plans as outlined earlier this week have been pushed back a little bit by Ebay springing a suprise "50%-off insertions fees" today and today only. So while I primped and prettied all sorts of stuff for Ebay, Schmoopie and Punky took packages to the post office.

Listed today was mainly games, including my FULL SET of Pirates Of The Spanish Main cards. Someone is gonna get an EXCELLENT deal there.

And on a side-note, here's something that will NEVER get listed on Ebay... by *me*, at least...




[livejournal.com profile] khristle found all of these at a thrift store for me, paid $1.99 for the lot of 'em. There's something absolutely MAGICAL about 7-11 Super Hero Slurpee Cups to me... one of my earliest geeky obsessions. Slurpees just TASTE BETTER when sipped out of one of these HUGE cups. And I remeber these cups did seem ENORMOUS hen I was a kid... like there was NO WAY anyone could drink THAT MUCH SLURPEE by themselves! And now? That's the smallest size that Slurpees come in.

Oh, I've got ships left over... I'm just listing the set because (a) I know it'll get some money and (b) I just don't have the time!

Besides, I'll probably force you to play HeroClix instead. Got a closet full of THOSE as well!

Cool. Yeah, you are going to pull a bundle on the pirates. I've looked at buying some online and they are too much for my small allowance. I'd love to play heroclix. I haven't bought any because I haven't had anyone to play with and I have a lot of minis already. However I could justify it by using them for a RPG too or by making custom heroes or all sorts of things. I keep checking ebay for good deals on them. :D

That's the great thing about HeroClix... it's designed so you can do a battle straight out of the box, or you can do an RPG campaign, or prety much ANY ANGLE of gaming you want to do! It's a mini-fig with the character stat-sheet printed right on the base!

I've got a near complete set of the first Clix they released, then a bunch of random stuff from subsequent expansions. Probably enough Clix for a group of 50 people to play :)

You're just listing those 'cause we talked about it... however long ago that was....

Let me know what the end up selling for, 'kay? i'm curious.
