Oilspill
22nd June 2009, 03:20 AM
Aww cool! I'd love swords for Grimlock, Slag, Sludge and Snarl. (4x $4)

Also Swoop's missiles ($8) and Snarl's missiles ($8).


PS. The missiles are each a set of 3 - I only need 2x swoop's missiles and 1x snarl's missile myself, so if anyone wants to split them, PM me.

Can I grab a Blaster Gun, and Thrust glitter coloured long missiles???

1x G1 Seeker short missile set to suit Thundercracker w/glitter - $10
1x G1 Seeker Landing gear - $8
1x Blaster Gun - $8
1x Outback Gun - $4

I hope he builds up a good amount of parts like Repro parts did. Would love to get a set of G1 Seeker fists and G1 Optimus fists.

Is this dude the same dude who does the repro labels? If so, I hope he is better at dealing with customers with parts than what he is with his labels.

Man I gota get on to these original G1's before mass repro parts get into full circulation. High quality KO's imo.

But I suppose I have been edging towards filling the gaps with repros one time or another :p

Not sure about that ~$20AU price tag for the counterpunch/punch weapon set though. Couldn't you just get an original set for that price?

It is rather hard to find them guns Whoopy. And even if you do, since these are rather uncommon to come by sellers charge more than $20 for each. Lords know Ive been looking for Sixshot guns for 3 years now and have only spotted 1 (of which I was outbid :() and one at Parramatta fair ...... Those dino swords are great as well, the prices those go for at ebay is criminal...
Just wish he makes more other G1 gun and parts - say Octane's Shield, Fangry's Shield, Shoulder pads for Bombburst...:D

Also how much AUD would be the total price tag for shipping to QLD for Blaster's Rifle and the gun it self?

i can never give you a definitive answer on the AUD mate, because exchange rates preclude me from doing so.

but

the blaster gun is $8 USD
shipping will less than $0.50USD
and i have no clue how much shipping would be, use the lodgement postcode 3134 and you can calculate it to your place on the auspost website :)

and ill be closing and therefore placing the order on monday

Glad you havent yet ordered then Blackie, can you please add

1 x Alt gun barrel (black) = $6.00 ( need this for my hasbro f@%$ of Windcharger)
4 x missle launcher $8 each= $32. since the ol binaltech arming kit has gone missing in ebay already might as well get these since Im only after the launchers from that set anyhow.

hope this isnt too late...

it wasnt too late, but he no longer has an acceptable mould for the alt missile launchers unfortunantly, so we cant get them :(

ok guys
got confirmation he can do the order
hes thinking it might take a few weeks (somewhere in the order of 4) so ill organise to send you all my payment details this weekend sometime so we can get the money to me so i can pay him and get this all in motion :)

another concern is the shipping
he ships at 4USD via first class shipping, which worrys me slightly as the order is fairly large.
other option is via priority,which is tracked and insured, but that will cost 26.50USD between us..
opinions?

Priority shipped and tracked of course. We can easily bear the cost amongst ourselves.

So um what do you mean he doesnt have any acceptable mould any longer? If it's not a working launcher that isnt a problem with me:). Priority mail sounds fine as long as we can track it and its insured for our peace of mind.

he says hes not offering it because he doesnt have a mould, so im assuming it degraded etc

* mould *

http://www.health.vic.gov.au/environment/emergency_mgmnt/flood_mould.htm

What is mould?

Moulds are fungi (like mushrooms), which are present at low levels virtually everywhere, indoors and outdoors. People are exposed to mould on a daily basis without harm.

Moulds need organic materials (eg. leaves, wood, paper or dirt) and moisture to grow. Mould is often green, grey, brown or black, and produces a musty smell. The most common indoor moulds are Alternaria, Cladosporium, Penicillium and Aspergillus.

Moulds release countless tiny, lightweight spores, which travel through the air. This occurs when moulds are actively disturbed (during cleanup) or in dry conditions (when the house is being dried out). If mouldy materials and items are not removed or properly cleaned, high levels of airborne mould spores may be a health risk for mould-sensitive family members when they move back into the house.

I think Blackie's being a bit facetious (girls have a tendency to do that) but what he means is that he's not even in a position financially to pay for such an order and so he has to pull out. If you or anyone else wants to initiate the sale with the seller without him, feel free to do so. It's just he's not able at the moment to go through with it - which is fair enough given we all have changing financial commitments.
