We're keeping 4 of the 5 for later tourney use, and having a raffle with the last one to donate to the local food pantry for the yearly Thanksgiving meal for the homeless and shut-ins. Making proverbial lemonades out of lemons...

Your my kinda shop owner. I gotta visit your place some day.

Just did a recon of the "you know where" site and found 500 items under "commanders arsenal". In this case it looks like the sum of the parts is greater than the whole. Of course Aristotle didn't have to deal with "you know what".

I really hope those of you that are serious collectors were able to get one at a reasonable price.

Of Which!

Clay, Were you in port or able to arrange for someone to capture you a copy? They probably won't have any in the ship's store at sea.

No. I would happily reimburse someone for an Arsenal pack at/around MSRP + shipping. I'll eBay for something inflated. hmmm, that reminds me that I still need an FTV Realms, too.

Might be into port by Thanksgiving though. keeping my fingers crossed.

Some sellers still have some deontology. Thanks for that :-)

And that's just because it is the second rooster of FtVs that came here, via secondary market, as the first 15 or so where sold for 49.95€.

You would have had better bought the singles you wanted as you are selling most of the pack.

Depends, maybe he bought it at 75€ ...

Knutsen · Post by **Knutsen** » Wed Nov 07, 2012 3:24 pm

Unfortunately not - I paid an 'normal' price.

I notice the number of pages has grown on "you know where" and prices have changed up and down on items.

The life counter is very difficult to use. Give me two 10 sided die or a pencil and paper.

It is hard to understand why the company makes such stuff. I guess it is a case of the company making money and providing items the the original buyers can try to resell for a profit.

How much of this will it take to kill the goose?

Yah, it needs a flat base to sit on. The first game I played with the arsenal life counter, we rolled it to see who goes first. Not sure it should be that unstable where it can be rolled. Beyond that, it doesn't turn very well. I'm half tempted to WD40 it up and see how it goes, but then again I'd probably rather sell it. If I go the WD40 route there is no going back :/

I haven't opened them yet, but heres hoping the sleeves don't suck.

Your right about not going back on the WD-40 rout. A silicone base oil would be a better thing as some are made just for plastic..

Two bids are up to $20+. Selling has it's good side.

Is there only one color to the life counter? I ask because this item looks as though it is tan colored, but it could be the lighting.
