I got an e-mail from eBay the other week.
Nothing particularly unusual about that. I get e-mails from eBay pretty much everyday: "You've been outbid," "That seller you like has listed something you didn't realise you needed until right now," "We know where you live," "We're coming for your soul."
But on this occasion, the e-mail was something rather unexpected: A £15 money-off voucher for any purchase over £30.
That's nice, but I couldn't really think of anything I wanted or needed.
After reading the e-mail, I returned to my latest game of
Betrayal at Calth, and I moved my unit of Blood Angel terminators, repurposed from
Space Hulk. You see, regular readers (if such mythic entities truly exist) may remember that when
Betrayal at Calth came out last year, I really couldn't justify the £95 price tag, so I ended up purchasing only the cardboard components from a seller on eBay, and then proxying the miniatures.
Perhaps you can see where this article is going.
