[Plainville MA] Battleground Bitz Bonanza! - 9/7
« on: August 17, 2013, 01:57:42 AM »


Battleground Games & Hobbies - Plainville


Date: September 7th, 2013 a Saturday
Time: Doors open at 10:00am

Address:
25 Taunton Street
Plainville MA 02762
508.316.1195

Parking on site

Specifically scheduled to coincide with the launch of Codex: Space Marines!!


The Battleground Bitz Bonanza is an opportunity for the miniature gaming community to come together and and trade / sell their leftover model parts (bitz), unfinished models, or used models with each other or whoever might be interested.  No sealed product may be sold.

All of those armies that people are looking to get rid of on the boards?  All of those half assembled models you've got laying around?  That giant box of cool parts you thought you'd use?   This is the day you can turn them all into Battleground Bucks (store credit)!!


How It Works:

• Everyone is invited to bring unfinished models and model parts (no sealed product) into the store and "claim an area" on a first come first serve basis.  Battleground will help facilitate this in an effort to keep people as contained as possible.

• Each person is responsible for pricing, valuing, and keeping track of their own items.

• As bitz shoppers walk around the store sellers will hand them a voucher for the item they intend to sell with the price they intend to sell the bitz/items for on it.

• The buyer will bring the voucher up to the register and pay the amount the seller put down on the voucher.

• A Battleground employee will stamp the voucher and the seller will receive store credit for that amount.

• The buyer will bring the stamped voucher back to the seller and the seller will give the buyer whatever bitz or used models they agreed upon.

• Trading is allowed, but NO CASH may change hands between buyer and seller.


Battleground asks that all Bitz Bonanza transactions are final.  Everyone participating in the Bitz Bonanza is expected to take all of their stuff home with them at the end of the day if it has not been claimed.

Miniatures and parts from all miniature game systems are welcome.






Just added!!  In addition to the Bitz Bonanza and Space Marine launch day, we're adding a Paint and Take to the goings on next Saturday, September 7th, in Plainville.

We'll be giving out Space Marines to anyone who's interested in sitting down to paint one up all day and night on the 7th.

Even if you're not interested in the new product launch or the buying, selling, and trading bitz come down and talk shop while painting a free figure.  We'll even have a small amount of paint on hand for people to use.

Indeed, well played!

I heard $58 for space marine codex.  I will be trying to float its purchase with some bitz sales, that's for sure.

But I will probably end up buying a bunch of bitz, so there is that...

Anyone previewing their wares?  I will be bringing my trollbloods...

I've heard $58 also.  I forgot that we're dealing with Space Marines here!  Sheesh!

What about really OOP blisters, if sealed?  I am talking about early 90's here...

I'd prefer to stay away from all sealed items, but if it's from the 90's and you are ABSOLUTELY SURE we can't get it and haven't been able to for a long, long time, I suppose it's okay.

If people are interested, and I get Chase approval   ;) I'd be happy to bring my airbrushes and compressor down for people wanting to give that a try on their paint and take.  Lemme know!

That's fine with me so long as it doesn't have a strong scent or isn't super loud.  :)

I'm really thinking it's going to be a great time.
