I was inspired by Jon's post about blowing huge amounts of money on Zombies last week so I thought I would share my latest big purchase.
Slayer Design Studios wanted to take a break and clear out their inventory so they had some bulk auctions on ebay a few weeks back. Each lot had around 20 - 25 heads and started at $39.99.
I bought 3 lots but missed the part where shipping was $35. My fault for missing that.
However, I did mention it and David Grey (owns SDS) on the boards over there. He got me in touch with the guy running the auctions for him and they gave me a choice, either reduce the shipping rates or take get random parts. My view is I can always make more money but custom heads don't come by every day, so I went with the parts.
Man am I glad I went for the parts. I've got enough parts to keep my happy for the winter.
Here's my score:
1st auction I won:

2nd auction:

3rd auction:

Bonus swag:


Everything in one bag after I took it all out:

Talk about awesome!
I consider Slayer Dave a friend and probably one of the nicest guys in the hobby. I have literally spent hours talking on the phone and his dedication is fantastic, and it shows in his work.
I swear, his stuff is like plastic crack. Once you start, it's hard to stop.
