I'm pretty sure the empire was one of them - I know Bretonnians could.

Suffice it to say I bid too early and someone came along and bid up in $1 increments till they found my max bid. I tried to get crafty, but my revised max bid and last second snipe was to no avail. So no Giant for me. I am now at the point where I'm not sure how i want to proceed. I hate auctions but many of the Buy it Now prices seem ridiculous. Perhaps I need to re-read your advice and consider if my ideas of fair market value are skewed.Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15428727065347379281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3283315887973123007.post-23276792159358599082014-08-15T08:34:41.598-07:002014-08-15T08:34:41.598-07:00I love those Marauder ogres, those were some of my...I love those Marauder ogres, those were some of my first every purchases.
