Norro Posted June 7, 2005 Anyone else got one? I missed almost the whole last year of pirates... At the time I thought they were overpriced, at current prices I'm sure of it ;) ... God Bless, Nathan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Phes Posted June 18, 2005 Here's LEGO 6296 + 6263 Piraten Piratenschiff und Stadt Time left: 7 days 18 hours of a 10-day listing, Ends 27-Jun-05 03:08:57 AEST Start time: 17-Jun-05 03:08:57 AEST History: 0 bids Item location: Hamburg, Germany Posts to: Worldwide You lucky European creatures! Look at this! Been there for almost 3 days and no bids. In my part of the world something like this would already be a US$20 at least. Probably finish well over US$50 LEGO 6296 + 6263 Piraten Piratenschiff und Stadt So if you live close to Germany this could be quite a good auction for you... *glasses* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dreamweb Posted October 12, 2005 I just ordered one. Can't wait to have another Spanish guy and the cool rare blue-coated pirate, and another skeleton. The pieces will probably right away be used in a MOC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sting Posted October 13, 2005 Not a bad set! There really was NOT enough of those Spanish Armada figures! I still don't own one... but one day... one day soon... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Norro Posted October 14, 2005 I remember looking at this set in a toy store and thinking it was over-priced... how was I suppose to know lego would suddenly nose-dive? God Bless, Nathan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sting Posted October 14, 2005 I don't think any of us knew lego would nosedive Norro... I know I didn't... :'( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
metallifreak44 Posted October 15, 2005 I always wanted that set. Too bad I was a poor 10 year old when it came out.... I congratulate you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dreamweb Posted October 15, 2005 Like I said, I bought it for parts and minifigs. Still wondering what to do with that torn sail though... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cpt. Blackbeard Posted October 15, 2005 Did it come with box and inst.??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Phes Posted October 15, 2005 Instructions yes, box no. I suppose the box can quite signifigantly raise the value of set. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Norro Posted October 15, 2005 Instructions yes, box no. I suppose the box can quite signifigantly raise the value of set. as could design... ;) God Bless, Nathan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Phes Posted October 15, 2005 Well yes, but that's not what I meant. I meant a set with a box can fetch a much higher price than the same set without a box. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Starwars4J Posted October 16, 2005 http://cgi.ebay.com/BNIB-6296-RARE-PIRATE-...1QQcmdZViewItem >__> Only 0.99 GPB Maybe you can get a second? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Phes Posted October 16, 2005 Excellent find 4J! But unfortunately buying interationally is too much of a pain in the MegaBlok for me. First I must contend with high shipping costs then I've got to worry about currency conversion fees which all adds to the cost. So what might look like a bargain at the time turns out to be not such a bargain afterall. However, someone who is closer and interested in Pirate LEGO I strongly recommend they follow this auction. Norro, you interested? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Norro Posted October 16, 2005 However, someone who is closer and interested in Pirate LEGO I strongly recommend they follow this auction. Norro, you interested? And you picked a pirate set I don't have to tempt me with... Actually I rarely buy a set without instructions (as in not at all...) and I'm currently saving speculatively for another over-priced set that looks much better in hindsight: 6081 God Bless, Nathan (who will one day hunt this set down....)
