sorry to be so enthusiastic but i just came back from the most amazing playmotrip ever.
the story began yesterday evening. i was surfing ebay while we watched a film - just some usual ebay-patrol-surfing. the text was "big playmobil collection" - in 99,99% this is rubbish. but not this time baby. i couldn´t believe what i saw. it was allmost the complete medieval 90s sets BOXED. OMG….obviously the seller didn´t know what kind of treasure this was - because he put the auction just for people who will come by and pick up the stuff. no shipping. my hands where shakey as i scrolled to the location. OMG - just 18 km away from my home !
i had to open a beer and was thinking : okay maybe half is missing inside the boxes who knows . i calculated a price which felt okay for a seller who doesn´t know what this is and i would feel like finding a nugget. i activated my sniper and waited for the morning. with my first coffee i saw what happened.
the auction endet this morning ( ! ) and i was the winner with 1€ more than the next bidder! i wanted to pick up everything as soon as possible - still i couldn`t believe that the sets are ok….when i arrived i watched in the boxes and checked it and it was complete . they said there might be a sword or 2 missing - yeah okay. boxes and the whole playmo looked so good i still can´t believe it. after checking most of the sets i can say now that they are 99 % complete and in brilliant condition.
for the price : i saw recently one of those sets going for what i paid for the whole collection...
i have some medieval double sets now which i will give away for just what i paid for ( not this haul-price of course ) it might make sense to give them all away together for people who might not get the chance to get these sets for a ok price. so please PM me when you are interested.
But now the Pics....
