Alright, here's how this is going to work. Before I garage sale/E-Bay my stuff, I would like to offer all my buddies the chance to snap them up first. Most all of these are in good to perfect condition, minus the original packaging, and missing nonessential parts in some cases (the tabs of a guitar, a bust of Lord Raptor one of the Liliths was leaning on, etc). Near the following items will be the estimated retail price as best as I can Google them or as best as I can remember.
For the most part, the ERP is only a guide; this will be a silent auction, held right here in this journal, on this post, as far as I am able, because I can't be stuffed to do it anywhere else in any other way. I will be using for the first time the comment screening feature LJ offers, so please be patient if things are a little hiccupy at first.
All I want from interested parties is a good reason for me to send them something they want. You can give me your best monetary offer, or even a trade. Though you have nothing to send me in return, perhaps you can try to convince me that the item would have a perfect home with you. Maybe it was something you've wanted all your life, or your dying dog wants it. Or, just as likely as any of these, nobody's expressed an interest in the item at all, and simply by being the first to drop by and say, "That would kind of look nice beside my garden gnome", it could be yours by default. You may ask for more than one item. Or just tell me that I am a fool and that an item will fetch 500% its original price in the black market, and we can split the profits. You could be a friend of mine for years, or a passing stranger. Say something. Ask and you might receive.
Be warned however-- not everyone will be treated equally. I owe a lot of people a lot of things, and if I spurn a good, reasonable price for someone else's mere "Send it here", there may be reasons for this beyond your ken. Comments, offers or questions are subject to being unscreened and published at my discretion, unless otherwise specified or requested. When I say I am considering an offer, it means I am considering the offer. Once I promise you an item, it is as good as yours as soon as manageable.
Once a matter is settled, the details of addresses and logistics can be discussed over email. It may take moments to settle. It may take days. I have almost a week off until next Wednesday, and excepting Friday, so this is the best time for anything. Beyond that, the ball will be in the air. I will try to provide ample time for as many as possible to see and consider what I offer, but beyond a certain time after the latest ping I got from interested parties, all items are going to be gotten rid of some way or another.
While I do not require full price for any item, I do hope that interested parties give some small token to cover as much shipping as they can, though, again, it is not required.
Finally, you may not even be interested in anything I have (which is hardly a surprise), but may still be interested in helping me out a bit (which is always a pleasant surprise). Feel free to drop any amount you wish through the button below.
All proceeds will go to the Alliedeo 2010 Matrimony Fund, and whatever charities we deem worthy.
Yuki Nagato gashapon based on a doujin cover. Exquisitely crafted, one of my very favorites. Head, right arm and vest detach naturally, do not be alarmed. ERT = $49.00 - 60.00
Haruhi Suzumiya in season finale concert bunny outfit. Superb craftsmanship, good heft. May be missing some small locks of hair, or ribbon, and guitar may be missing one or two tabs. ERT = $65.00 - 80.00
Jo from Bakuretsu Tenshi. Terrible series, great character design, mediocre figure. ERT = $16.00 - 25.00
Some Chick From One Of The Summon Night Games. Ingenious character and weapon design, disappointing figurine (what the heck is up with giraffe neck here?). ERT = $25.00
 
Dunno Who This Is, But The Pumpkin Skirt Charmed Me Into Buying Her. Come on, you guys, pumpkin skirt. ERT = $25.00 - 36.00
The Demoness and Succubi Revue. From left to right:
Playful Lilith Aensland. Wings are around here somewhere, but could be missing. Mass produced manufacture, cheap plastic, won't stand on its own. ERT = $10.00 - 16.00
Distracted Lilith Sitting On Top Of L. Raptor's Blue Crystalline Bust For Some Reason. Raptor head somewhere around here somewhere, but who cares about that guy. Decent cast, but fragile and falls apart easily, can't stand independently without Raptor. ERT = $10.00 - 16.00
Etna from Disgaea: Hour of Darkness. Excellent piece, though tail may fall off if one is not careful. Is this one seriously selling on EBay for two hundred dollars?? Seriously? ERT = $85.00
Ceras Victoria from late game Hellsing. Beautiful workmanship for price, though leans forward oddly. Great character, one of my favorites. ERT = $25.00 - 30.00
Disgaea 2 Etna With Considerably Shorter Micro-Skirt. Excellent make, gorgeous design, one of my very favorites. Falls off stand if moved too much. ERT = $49.00
I-No of Guilty Gear. Kickass character, poor figurine, low detail, bad aesthetics, alarming anatomy. Not sure why I bought it. ERT = $20.00 - 25.00
New Arrivals Corner. From left to right:
Aya of Oneechanbara: Bikini Samurai Squad. Her clan's bloodline feeds off of power from the blood of zombies splashing on their skin, which is why she wears as little as possible to combat, I kid you not. I can't make shit like this up myself. A superb figurine nevertheless, sturdy and very finely detailed. Hat comes off. One of my favorites. ERT = $30 - 40.00
Misato Katsuragi of Neon Genesis Evangelion. Unique among the batch, completely handmade from ceramic, bought in the Philippines. Fragile and must be handled somewhat gingerly. Low detail and finish, but admirable simply for skilled work. ERT = 10.00
Yuffie Kisaragi from Final Fantasy VII and Advent Children respectively. These things are all over the place. Articulated joints mar otherwise finely-made statuettes, but I suppose it's a trade off for the poseability. Alternate hands and shuriken are around here somewhere if desired. ERT = $16.00 - 27.00
Agrias Oaks of Final Fantasy Tactics. Great character, small airtime, smaller figurine. Came in a set, but is now alone. Missing stand. Good make. ERT = $5.00
Yuki Nagato Again, Facing Mirror, Obliviously Adjusting Bathing Suit. Generic make and design, but golly, it's a real mirror! ERT = $7.00
Operators are standing by to take your calls. God bless!
