Hello. I've worked out a trade to complete the 6073 and get some of the
missing 6080 pieces, and have also added a 6022 Horse Cart to my auction.
Please read descriptions carefully as all sets but the 6073 have missing pieces
and/or missing instructions and/or damaged pieces. E-mail demlow@lightlink.com
to be put on the mailing list or to bid.
6022 Horse Cart (39 pieces, 2 figs, 1984). This set is a small horsecart
with two soldiers. No instructions; brown pole axe has a slightly bent
handle, otherwise complete in very good condition.

Min. Bid: $5
6030 Catapult (80 pieces, 2 figs, 1984). This is a neat little catapult
which complements the 6073 castle nicely. No instructions, missing the
white and green pennant flags; one of the figs is somewhat chewed on the
torso and has a ding in his helmet (maybe the catapult backfired...?).
Otherwise complete in very good condition.

Current Bid: $15 Adrian
6040 Blacksmith Shop (89, 2, 1984). This is a really cool little set
which I'm sorely tempted to keep (so the opening bid won't be at bargain
level!) It includes a blacksmith with leather apron, soldier, a
pitchfork, and a couple of red extreme slope corners. This example is
complete in very good shape with no instructions.

Current Bid: $40 Adrian
6073 Knight's Castle (408, 6, 1984). This classic set includes 4 soldiers
and two knights ready for battle. Lots of nice pieces, including 12 black
inverse medium slope corners and all three original red and black (!)
feathers (2 of each still in the wheels). Complete, pieces in very good
condition, includes original instructions in very good condition.

Current Bid: $90 Adrian
6080 King's Castle (664,12,1984) This is a large classic castle set with
lots of gray parts, both bricks and castle wall elements. It also has 12
figures (although this one is missing one figure). The set is in good to
very good condition; piece condition tends to be a little worse than
those above, but still pretty good. The set is missing around 30
pieces, making this the Lego equivalent of a "handy-man special". Most of
these are common; a few aren't. I'll list missing (and a couple of
damaged) pieces after the rules. All of the original feathers are
included (3 for each knight, 2 still in the wheel). The instructions
are also included; they have a couple of tears in the cover and are a
little bent up and worn, but not bad all told . Even with pieces
missing, this would make a great addition to any castle collection!

Current Bid: $50 John D.
Rules:
1. This will be a once-twice-sold auction. Advances will take 24 hours
(this may decrease if I want to speed things up) and will begin in about
10 days. I would like to have the auction over within 3 weeks (by March
26 or so), so get your bids on early.
2. I'll probably update every two days via e-mail and perhaps
twice a week on RTL. E-mail me to be on the list or to bid.
3. Payment via check or money order; I reserve the right to wait for
checks to clear.
4. International buyers welcome as long as payment is in US dollars via
check or money order.
5. Buyer pays shipping. The smaller sets will probably be shipped
Priority Mail within the US (which costs $3.20). The 6073 shouldn't cost
more than $4.30 to ship Priority Mail. International bidders may inquire
about shipping costs prior to bidding.
6. I expect prompt payment at the end of the auction.
7. I reserve the right to refuse participation to individuals and to very
the identity of bidders to my satisfaction (haven't refused anybody yet
and hopefully never will have to!).
8. Trades: I'm usually game for trades but need cash right now. The
only things I might go for are a 4547 Club Car, 7815, 7819, or 7820.
9. Minimum bid increment will be $1 under $100 and $5 if anything goes
over $100.
Missing pieces from 6080:
1 2x16 gray plate (replaced with 2 2x8's--not really noticeable)
8 1x1 gray bricks
8 1x2 gray bricks
2 1x3 gray bricks
3 1x4 gray bricks
2 1x6 gray bricks
2 1x2 gray inverse medium slopes
2 plain gray castle wall pieces
1 yellow saddle
no string for bridge/front door included
Damaged:
Black barn door missing handles
1 black bullet helmet has a broken chin strap (not very noticeable...)
1 soldier w/cross-axe emblem has a small ding in his chest (not very
noticeable, but there nonetheless...)
