Good luck Dave , I managed to get that one myself a while back .
The photos they provide dont show the mounted officer or colour party
I hope the set is complete ?

Ditto, Dave. I won't be fighting you for it. I hope you get it. Keep me posted on any chat with David and any other "finds" in NZ. PS, I got totally burned on an auction like this before - I think it is a real live auction, but they take Ebay bids. My advice is bid earlier and bid your maximum because the auction will likely start and end earlier than what it says on Ebay. Email me if this is confusing.

Dave,

Sorry, might have confused you. Part of that post was for Rob. Typing without thinking. Good luck.

Rob, I seem to recall that those figures were in the bottom layer of foam in the Heirloom Series boxes and these pics seem to be of the top layer. That said, the "caveat emptor" instructions in this auction listing are pretty daunting;

I quote:
"Please Note:
Everything in our Auctions is SOLD AS IS, RETURNS WILL NO LONGER BE ACCEPTED, and WITH NO EXCEPTIONS! All of our descriptions are written as accurately as possible, with all sizes approximate, and all apparent faults noted. Because of the volume of material we place in each of our sales, some descriptions may contain erroneous information or minor faults could be missed. It would be in your best interest as a serious buyer, for yourself or a reliable representative come to our Gallery to Pre-view the items in person, or at the very least, call us during pre-view hours so one of our representatives can look at the item while you ask specific questions.

You, the customers, are the experts. While our staff has a wide range of knowledge in the collectibles and memorabilia field, we cannot possibly have expertise in every specific category of collectible. PLEASE BE COMFORTABLE WITH THE ITEMS YOU ARE BIDDING ON, IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBTS, WE PREFER THAT YOU DO NOT BID! This is not because we don't value your business, but more the fact that WE WANT HAPPY CUSTOMERS!"

End quote.

Anyway, good luck with these auctions. I would sure like a couple of extra sets of marching Coldstreamers for display purposes, but I too am wary of this unfamiliar auction style.

Cheers,

Hi Drum , they have certainly covered themselves,
it looks similar to the disclaimer my acountant uses :eek:.
I,ve bought from these guys in the past and they where pretty good.
But thiers not realy a lot of info their for online bidders
regarding exactly whats in some of these lots.
Still could be worth a crack if they dont get to high,as theirs
a few sets I wouldnt mind getting.

cheers Rob
