Privateer Armoury Posted May 17, 2011 Posted May 17, 2011 From time to time I like to find out where the arms and armour market is and what people are buying. There are three parts to the survey: 1. Answer the Topic Poll. 2. Post what you are planning on buying or looking for in the next 6 months. It doesn't need to be from me as other makers will be seeing this topic. 3. (here is the fun part) A. Go to the Privateer Armoury Available Page. B. PM me what pieces you like and what you would buy them for Today. (shipping the the contenental US is $50, international is around $75-100) C. If the price works for me then I will contact you and you can purchase the piece for what you offered. So, what items be ye short on at the moment? They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters; These see the works of the LORD, and his wonders in the deep.

Mission Posted May 17, 2011 Posted May 17, 2011 A brace trepan. Mycroft: "My brother has the brain of a scientist or a philosopher, yet he elects to be a detective. What might we deduce about his heart?" John: "I don't know." Mycroft: "Neither do I. But initially he wanted to be a pirate."
Commodore Swab Posted May 17, 2011 Posted May 17, 2011 Just need to buy some more locks to put together a couple new pieces and hopefully have them done in time for Punta Gorda.
Duchess Posted May 18, 2011 Posted May 18, 2011 Wait, wait, am I voting on what I want to buy or playing Wil Shatner and loving my priceline bids? What can I get for a whole dollar?
Beowoulf Posted May 18, 2011 Posted May 18, 2011 A pot to piss in.... Lady luck has not been kind of late....
PoD Posted May 19, 2011 Posted May 19, 2011 I'll be buying a couple of new pistols in the next few days, a musket later in the year and hopefully a small cannon at some point after that. Just waiting for a sword from Baltimore Knife and Sword then I may be ordering another 2 off them. ...and then I discovered the wine...
Privateer Armoury Posted May 20, 2011 Author Posted May 20, 2011 Thanks for all the good information. I will be making some changes to Privateer Armoury based on this survey. Also, all the pieces on the site have sold. Congratulations to the new owners. Godspeed, Ben They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters; These see the works of the LORD, and his wonders in the deep.
