Actual Sprues May Vary |
Is anyone up for a ‘Sprue Exchange’?
Basically, like most wargamers, I have collected a bunch
of plastic wargaming sprues that I don’t actually want, and think it would be
fun to trade a few for those that I do. So, I have thrown a small pile of my
extra sprues in a box, and I’m ready to ship them off.
Here’s the idea. This is a limited exchange. Just me and
ten other people. I will ship the box off to the first person. That person can
swap two of the sprues in the box for a couple of their own. This person should
then email me, and I will give them the next address. This person then sends
the box on to person number 2 – and emails me at the same time, so I can track
its progress. Eventually, the box works its way around to everyone and back to
me. If it’s fun, I’ll do it again. If not, that’ll be the end of it.
Here are the rules.
1. You
agree to send the box off to the next person within a week of receiving it.
Less if possible.
2. Each
person can take two sprues, but they must exchange them for two different
sprues. (The sprues you put in must be different from each other).
3. You
can toss in extra sprues if you want to get rid of them and there is space in
the box.
4. A
sprue can be missing up to two pieces, but only if you can still fully assemble
all of the figures the sprue was designed to assemble. (So it can be missing a couple of heads, if there are still sufficient heads for all of the bodies.
5. Plastic
is preferred. Other sprues are allowed if they are very light (such as MDF,
Resin, ect).
6. All
postage is 2nd Class.
7. UK residents only. Sorry, shipping outside of the country makes it not worthwhile.
If you want to participate, drop me an email. You can
find it on this blog if you look hard enough.
Remember, spaces are limited to ten.
Interesting Idea hope it works out for you
ReplyDeleteHow fun! Unfortunately I am in the US, but I hope it works out for you.
ReplyDeleteI’m game. This could be fun.
ReplyDeleteI'm in as well. Good idea! If I find the email... :)
ReplyDeleteLike this, have emailed you from my non android related email.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like a chuckle. Count me in. I will try not to use this to shift a box full of War Path Enforcers and Forge Fathers that I massively over ordered.
ReplyDeleteLOL how did this pan out in the end ?
ReplyDeleteDid everyone end up happy with the results ?
