Did anyone get a good deal?
I have a sail & mast and nick nacks coming. I find out tomoz if they are good.
This is what I took home sail, mast, and boom with np outhaul kit included all were brand new in original packaging for total of $1000 including lloyds taxes
(NB No mast extension)
I'm happy with that
That's a fairly good deal I think
So now the wanted part of the thread hahaha
I wasn't game to buy the boxes of assorted bits - but do need a few tendons.
Did anyone score some in the asstd bits boxes, and want to sell?

I'd be smiling too , that is awesome value .
did anyone buy any boards?
i was interested in a couple but they already had $400 bids on them so was already too close to what i would pay, plus they needed lloyds tax on top

A local here got a Bladt & JP foil. Only dirty!
I was able to upgrade a couple of my krappy old masts for less than 50% rrp including the 22% charge. Adam got a mast, a boom, extensions and bases all for less than 50% rrp and fins for between 25% and 50% rrp. There were some good buys if you knew your prices and bid smart.
Adam and I p!ssed ourselves laughing when we saw someone who had sowed the seed of doubt earlier on this thread, down there on pickup day with a pile of loot to their name .................... well played sir!

not well played. just greed and self interest in action.
if it were a bank you'd be up in arms.
dissapointing that youre applauding this behaviour.
Looks like same bidder on most items. I bought a part I needed in the first auction, Naish foil base plate. There were 3 available, got it for $48, now others listed starting at $55. Maybe the first bidder is Lloyd's themselves.
@Gestalt, feel free to be as disappointed as you like. Anyone who got off their @rse and inspected the goods; or wasn't influenced by adverse comments posted on here and made their own informed decisions; was rewarded if they bid sensibly on something they needed 
Yeah well played... it was an auction, use tactics or as others have posted, go have a look then you would have known condition and how much you're willing to pay rather than going in blind

You'll love it awesome free ride bit of kit.

Looks like the remaining sails and masts are up for auction there again now.
A few of them disappeared from the original auction, back now. And some things that I bid on but missed out. Strange.
FYI. Stay away from the Hellcat sail. It's old and badly damaged although the opening pix is of a new model.

I really need a new seat harness, and I am fat, so was bidding on the XL 38 inch one that suddenly disappeared halfway through the auction and is now up for auction again, but I'm not frikkin driving back down to the GC just for a harness.

Hey guys I saw some were asking about pictures of boards purchased. I bought the 2016 Stubby 88. Apart from the normal wear and tear of a second hand board it just has a few black marks that I can't remove.
I was looking for a one board solution for QLD wavesailing for this summer and I think this fits perfectly. Can't wait to get out on it.

Hey that's what I was hoping to buy too. I was happy to go to 450 with taxes
Well done and great buy if there's nothing wrong except some marks !
you can test it out in big winds tomorrow at wello

Uni joint $20 postage for one.
2 Uni joint postage?
$231.18 LOL

I am guessing he can't... he still needs to buy a set of fins for $250... unless of course he managed to grab them from the auction.

Actually checked shipping on a few items which all came out insane... a shipping a boom to WA was over $300. Good for local crew I guess... not so good for local QLD shops.
I didn't trust Lloyds shipping calculator when a mast was $200 sent with Australia Post, and $1600 courier.
Aus Post don't take anything longer than a metre (or is it 1.2m) so how can Lloyds even offer that option?
And the courier quote? Really $1600. They're clowns.
Anyway c'mon who got all the tendons?
