    Default ALL SOLD: 35 older WW1 aircraft -

    23 AUG: See Price updates in post #13 below....



    For Sale: WW1 aircraft.

    I am selling my collection because since moving 3 years ago, I havent' touched them. Seems silly to sit on them when I read about how hard it is for others to find planes to play this fine game....

    I have a couple of planes that are in open boxes that were never used, and a lot of others that were used, but still in good condition. Some of my series I planes don't have the thin plastic tray-- I didn't always save the tray when I put them into service. All my planes have the requisite four clear pegs, including the repaints and conversions.

    A couple of my planes are repaints. They are well done, I feel. I am an aircraft modeler first, and a gamer second. The two repaints were neatly done with my airbrush and quality aftermarket decals.

    A couple of my planes are conversions-- long before SPAD VIIs were available, I made a couple from F-toys planes. I installed a pin in the bottom, and used the cards from one of the old Ares expansion decks to provide the correct plane card and a full maneuver deck. I also made a custom label to go on a re-puposed clear base.

    I'm tired of "Fee-bay", so I figured I'd offer them here first.

    Please ask if you have any questions about the condition of individual planes.

    A note about shipping: I live in New Hampshire, USA. I only charge actual shipping. As a frequent buyer of secondhand hobby stuff, I know how irritating it is when people overcharge for shipping because they don't want to be bothered to pack efficiently. Look, we all know about how much it costs to ship stuff-- so please don't barrage me with requests like "how much to ship 5 planes to here, and how much more to ship 2 additonal?". I'll try to ship single planes via First Class mail, if possible-- it is generally cheaper.

    I'd prefer to sell domestically, as the packing and shipping is easier, but will consider international sales if someone really wants something. (But understand everything goes by air these days, and international shipping costs can get ugly, fast!)

    Finally, I'm really not sure what I'm getting myself into here. I don't know if this post will be bet with a flurry of PMs or a chorus of yawns. I thought about breaking it up into a smaller, multiple posts, but then buyers may not be able to save on combine shipping. If I get a ton of messages, I will process them on a first come, first served basis.

    Payment: Paypal preferred

    Which MVR plane is the Dr.1?

    The all-red one. Several years ago, the original Series I red triplanes sold out quickly, but the others were still available. I got one of the Rahn triplanes, and painted it red to make my own. I’ll post a photo tomorrow.
