Plus £6 for postage????
It must be a 1:1 scale and not 28mm as I first thought.
Cheers

There are some Welshmen who would think that a bargain.

Just up my street given my user name, I'll have the Velcro gloves at the ready though I'm sure you could buy a real one for that money!

Ewew'd have to be wooly minded to buy this sheep, anyway you could hire one for £10 ( and a pretty one at that!)

I have a very difficult time believing that six different people bid on this item.
Frankly, I suspect that it was supposed to start at 99 pence and the poster forgot the decimal point . . . and I can only surmise that all of the bidders were thinking that it was the price was in pence and not pounds . . . it isn't cast in platinum after all.
All I can add is that I'm glad that I wasn't one of the bidders.

Even if the price was supposed to be in pence you're still getting fleeced with the postage charges.
are there any more puns left in this item?

doubt if there are any more cracks that could be made, but it has certainly been entertaining

Come on Bob, plenty more mileage in there, you can't give it the chop yet, most of the Forum members will be bleating about this for ages yet.
Sheperd you thoughts and line those puns up like lambs to the slaughter!
