Bit the bullet...

[eddiesolo]

For many months I have been spouting on about having to get shut of some of my models due to space, if I don't, I cannot carry on making crap...er exceptional quality pieces I have always managed to ignore that space was running out and just ended up dumping stuff...in fact it got that bad I couldn't work on the bench for chuffing models.


So, while the weather is nice I got a collection of stuff together and listed them on ebay with a £0.99p start...I doubt I will make the material costs back, but the time has come.


So, what is going:

There maybe even more to list. Sad but what can you do?

Alas Si, I know the feeling, have managed to scrunch a bunch of individual models in a bookcase and have several shelves about but it seems that "Eye Deep In Hell" has put me "over the top" {no pun intended}. But all of my models are like my children, very hard to part with, but then again

Sad to see them go Si .Ive got a few decent ones and many crap ones which a lot of people would just throw away but I just can't bite the bullet and get rid of any of them so I guess I'll have to make more space lol. Good luck with your sale Si .

Children or models ... that's a tough decision Jim!

Unless you're extremely lucky, I doubt anyone would get back all the costs in making a model after eBay fees, packing costs etc.


But maybe those that buy them will get pleasure from having then on display, so that's always a nice thought.

It's a shame to lose such great pieces of work mate , from time to time I have to box up some stuff or throw away ( not good enough to sell ) so I know how hard it is mate but I'm sure you'll replace them with better

Ta guys, problem is I like dios, or boarded pieces...so room runs out rather quickly. I don't think these are super great pieces, some were made a few years ago but, as you say, they are your sweat, blood and tears...good or bad, you attempted to make something. Jeez, I'm welling up here .


I think Patrick hit on a good point, despite what they make, that will be chucked back into the hobby, hopefully someone else, maybe not modelling minded, will appreciate them.

Can't be helped Moni, I have a 1/400 Titanic kit, two 1/24 cars, another 1/24 huey, 1/24 London bus, plus some other bits. Cannot start to build until I have made room.


Wish I didn't have to though...

I just give mine away.............. I keep a few. but I have a mate whose sun likes them for his bedroom. I loke to think they all sit majestically on a shelf somewhere....... But they probably end up trashed. I just don't ask.

If I really could keep them I would...having another look in the shed and musing...there really is no more space.
