Bump for price drop and pics.

EDIT: OK so I had some last minute repairs on my car to pay off today SO I'm gonna do a pretty dumb discount here. Anyone who wants this sword and can PayPal me for it today can take it for $350 plus shipping. That's over 30% off the retail price and I won't probably won't sell it for that little a...

Bump for price drop on the bascinet.

thunderwinde

Bump.

thunderwinde

Really sorry to hear that. My condolences to you and your family.

thunderwinde

Bumping for price drop, as I'd really like to get these moving before I have to start packing up for grad school in earnest.

thunderwinde

Bump!

14 gauge (2mm) stainless.

Where's the haubergeon? I was supposed to upload photos of it after the other items. Unfortunately, I did not have time to do so before leaving for Chiapas on an archaeological trip. My brother will still be mailing out any items that are sold, but I don't think I'll be able to list any new onesbun...

WEDGE-RIVETTED AVENTAIL (9mm) - $220 $180 p/s This is the long wedge-rivetted aventail sold by Ice Falcon. Made in 9mm stainless steel rings. However, this has been re-treated by Ben from Atlanta Armoury to give it a different finish. The only downside is that this left some oxidation on the rings....

STAINLESS STEEL BASCINET - $550 p/s $350 p/s This has been my primary helm for the past two years. Stainless steel. Head circumference 23.75". Comes with suspension padding and strap. Cloth aventail. Made by Mike Tutov (Buyan's Armoury) here on the Archive. Very good air flow and vision, especially...

Hi all, just putting some stuff up for sale. Getting ready to move for grad school, and can't carry all this armour with me. I will add items as I take photos of them and can upload them. Everything is open to offers, so don't be shy about PM'ing me. Everything will be shipped within 24 hrs of recei...

Didn't I get those from you? Seller's remorse? lol

I have an extra kidney. If I could find a buyer, I'd be all over this.

Good luck with you sale.

Thanks! Yeah, to be honest, I'd much rather hold on to it, but that's life, I guess.

grendel wrote:How much for the Helm, with Aventail installed?

Unfortunately, I'm a bit over-occupied with finals and other research projects at the moment, so can't really commit to installing it. I will, however, knock off 75.00 if someone buys both items together, so that'd be $900 p/s for both.

Ok so I'm trying to round up some extra money for my study tour to Brussels next week (I'm conducting research on the EU). So I'm putting some items up for sale. I'm open to offers on these, but bear in mind the money is specifically for this trip. So these are all going off the market if they don't...

I heard that Facebook recently dropped their privacy protections for accounts. I'm surprised that brands personal, business, and school site on Facebook are not hit with multiple comments about this 2008 list. If I were owed a helm I'd be bitching daily. Just to clarify, Facebook did not drop all p...

It's working fine on Firefox for me, both on Windows and Fedora (Linux).

Working fine from what I can see. Using Chrome on a Windows 8 pc. I can check with other browsers and OS's when I get home, but this is what's available at my university.

What colour is it?

As far as the pointy hat comment goes, I just have to say that from my own experience, this could not be farther from the truth. I bought my first kit from Andre about 2-3 months into the SCA - as unpointy a hat as you get. His service was beyond awesome. He spent quite a bit of time going over thin...

From http://www.livesteelarmor.com/beware.html "Most antique armour weighs thirty to fifty pounds with seventy pound armours being very rare and made of inferior metal trying to be bullet proof in later armours. Half of the wearers weight in combined harness and weapons is a basic maximum. " Either ...

Personally, I have nothing to do with this situation, but believe my input is still absolutely vital to its resolution. Just my $0.02.

Last price drop on the titanium, plus free shipping now offered, before they go to Ebay.

I know there's been a desire to do something like it at Great Western. However, I have absolutely no idea how close that is to happening this year. I can inquire with some locals if you'd like.

Participation in an endeavor of such and amongst such men of noble chivalry is, in and of itself, an honor. You can win awards aplenty through ransom. And sometimes you will be honored with other tokens of honor or respect from current participants, former participants, or observers. All the renown...

thunderwinde

For me although its been a few years since I have participated I just have to share a thought. The SCA is full of merit awards, tokens etc etc. I see the deed in itself sufficient and the damaged armour, welts and bruises an adequate outward sign of participation. I am not a captain the decision is...

This sounds promising, want to fill us in? Well, while talking to Murdock after the Thirty, I had the notion that we might have some sort of system where, after, say, three or five (or whatever number people like) years fighting on the English side, you would get inducted into an order inspired by ...
