Yeah, I think it's you. I click on the link and it looks normal, plus the code for that link hasn't been changed.... I think you may have malware.

Re: Just how hard to find is this stuff?

There's a large flea market in Long Beach I go to each month (it's every third sunday), and I've actually often seen 1:18 aircraft along with figures. Saw a whole 1:6 ULtimate Soldier collection yesterday when I was there including the massive RC Stuart Tank (I already have two). So I see items arou...

Army Air Force Items (WTB)

Hey guys! So, I've been meaning to post this one here for some time. I figure some of you probably have some WW2 items you're wanting to sell... or at the very least have some good non-ebay leads. Seeing as I peruse through ebay finding anything I can, lately things have been a little dry in the AAF...

Re: Jesus !! $200+ For a Generic Hellcat !

Ebay has become the only real 'price guide' for so many things coz the bottom line, any item is only worth what can be got for it. Printed price guides are fur scheiße, imo, regardless of the subject matter. That's how I feel about WW2 items in general. So many of these 'printed guides' set the pri...

Re: Time For Auction II ?

Thank you, Britt, for taking the time to post some rules for the Live Auction feature. That can go a ways to clarifying issues and setting policies. Hopefully they will be put into a sticky thread at the top of the Auction Forum. Also, I am glad auctions are not being limited to just one member thi...

I'll set up the forum when you're ready, and I'll make sure there's a global announcement pointing to the new forum so no one misses it. PM me when you're ready to do the live auction. And anyone can participate in selling, but keep in mind they have to be really great prices in order for this to wo...

Hey Pickle... did you read my post on the previous page about my suggestions? I think having that special forum made will help you figure out which items are closed and not.

Re: Live Auction So how Was It Guys ?

The only grey area I saw was in the machi auction where we had two guys bidding on the same lot, but in two different ways. It sounds like they worked it out so they both came out winning but yeah, maybe the rules should've been more clear in that instance. I think separating the items would be bet...

Re: Live Auction So how Was It Guys ?

Note - I went and locked the threads that were sold. Two of the threads didn't have SOLD or your end posting saying no more bids, so I didn't lock those. My thoughts on it (after reading all the posts): It was very entertaining to read. I would have jumped in on one of the items, but alas I had a pi...

Re: Private Message Notification

It's possible if you read them before the system has a chance to send out the email, it may not send it. Or, as stated, it could be getting caught in the spam folders. We've been having some hosting issues too the last few weeks, so email from the boards might be a little weird. Should be okay now. ...

I've never seen them anywhere in SoCal (and I look everytime I go to Walmart), but when I was driving up to San Francisco for Fleet Week in early October, we past through Gilroy. We stopped at a walmart and they had four BF-109s, so I snatched one of those up. Seems like it's Mid-NorCal that's getti...

Thanks for the heads up. Always good to have members posting things like this (though I'm personally not a huge Bad Cat fan) so others can benefit and complete their collections. Most of us here remember these aircraft when they were well under $100, but in today's generation we can't expect these p...
