Ed Miarecki´s selling stuff, including pics of ship models. From what is visible, it´s only ships we´ve seen, but who knows... Ebay auction Posted by Dukhat (Member # 341) on :
I placed a bid on it (I'm the first bidder). If I win, I'll scan all the pics and photos and post them here.
It looks like there's pics of the undersides of the Ahwahnee and the Chekov, and a top view of the Buran. I'd love to see the details on those.

Good! I was hoping someone might!

Well, I think 25 bucks is kinda steep for a few pieces of paper, but I'm interested enough that I bid on it. However, if some other jerk comes along and bids say, a hundred dollars, then I'm not even going to bother outbidding him.

Fuck- those are not even photos- just really shitty BW photocopies.
Still, they are new shots of the Cheyenne and Springfield so....
If one of you guys buys it, I'll toss ya a a five for your costs- if you upload the pics, of course.
$25 is not terrible I guess but I wont be suprised if he does ablog eventually and shows off better stuff for free.

I did not win. Someone even more of an ubernerd than me bid $51.00, and there was no way in hell I was going to pay that much for a few pieces of paper. Sorry. (And the second bid after mine was $45.00, up from the $24.99 I bid. That's why I hate eBay so much.)
Anyway, Yes, I would have liked to see the undersides of the Ahwahnee and Chekov, and the top view of the Buran if only to see its registry number (if you even could with those photocopies), but I think Jason's right...I'm sure sooner or later they'll be posted online if the person who bought them thinks anything like me.

Items located in Valley Forge - wasn't that an Excelsior on Ds9?
Posted by Dukhat (Member # 341) on :
Uh, yeah...and that has to do with the eBay listing, how?

Nothing really, I just never understood the entomology of the name until now.
Posted by Dat (Member # 302) on :
And you never bothered to look it up when you were curious?
Posted by TSN (Member # 31) on :
Apparently, he never looked up "entomology", either.
Posted by The Ginger Beacon (Member # 1585) on :
Ha! When I told someone last night I got my MSc in entomology she asked me if I'd liked English for a long time, or if was more recent.
To be honest its a nice change from "Wuh? Entowhat?".

Ok, back a little bit on the issue, although I´m captivated and fascinated by this thourough indepth discussion on philology...
Will everyone keep their eyes and ears open for these pics online?

I'm not so sure since the information was there for all the years and it didn't show up so far!
Posted by Dukhat (Member # 341) on :
Yes, but that was before the internet.

I see that there is a gap, but the internet is available for - what - 15 years now?

Maybe his father got the copies in the first place, being an old-school fan, and this is his son hocking his stuff while he's away on a business trip. TCV-concert coming up.

Sorry to bump an old thread, but did anyone, say like Starship Freak, happen to save the pics from eBay?
Posted by Pensive's Wetness (Member # 1203) on :
i favorited the threads so i can remember the proper pic to use in social settings (and so should you;)

That one really creeps me out for some strange reason...
