hahaha any of you buggers sniping me down or majorly outbidding me on eBay?

In the past fortnight, i must have bidded on at least 6 isis puzzles, 2 RamIsis, 1 Copernisis and a few Nkryptors......

Needless to say, I've been left with nothing and a few items fetching at least£20-30 more than previous items have been going for :roll:

Don't mind sharing puzzles with you but whilst I'm without a puzzle on my IA account, I'm left without a pyramid to find, so, If you see me bidding, just go easy on me :lol:

It's the UK one namely, however there's been a few "ship to UK" puzzles go too.
Sniped down in the last seconds, obviously not enough time to place a bid.

I don't mind people having them but I just need one to see the pyramids until I can sort mine out :lol:

What about this one? Is this the 'Eagle' version?

I've never seen it before. Not a big fan of bidding on items where the serial number is shown in the photo, but it's quite pretty, if not pricey!

That's the eagle one, I already own and not willing to bid anything near that, be simple to purchase one new and a colour I don't already have ;)

I didn't think the Eagle isis would be that expensive, seeing as it was cheaper than the Isis I at the time of release.

It may have been cheaper, but they're all pretty damn rare at this point, aren't they?

In your mind, what would an Eagle be worth?



Also, other than FleaBay, where might one find used Isis puzzles? When googled, it is really the only site that pops up for these.

I guess they are rarer than the standard G+B colour. I can't put a price on it, only what it's going for. Most standard models are going for about £30-£50 :-/

Sometimes I have seen used and new Isis on sale on amazon, and on foreign sites (Kijiji, Canada, but you'll have to see with the seller if he sends out of his country)

We have sites over here, as such Gumtree and Preloved, which host similar features. Only, the one I've seen on there is selling for £60, rather than the £30-£50 on eBay.

I'm going to keep looking, see what I can find. Hopefully I could be a winning bid on one instead ;)
