Snow has finally cleared out enough that I'm getting my deliveries on schedule, so I'm going to go ahead and order the two sets I've rec'd payment for, for Excalibur and Ludzik.

Sets have been ordered for Ludzik, Excalibur, and Cape Madness. Alice thinks she might have one lying around already, and Curt/Falsus are going to send theirs shortly. I'll be working on the spreadsheet this weekend. Hopefully we can fire up the discussion regarding splitting lots??
PS, I'm waiting to order mine, depending on whether we get anyone else who wants a half-share. If not, then I'll just split Ludzik's set with him and we'll be squared away.

Sets from Shop-at-Home are due to be in-hand today! I am picking up one from Alice probably Monday or Tuesday next week.

As the sets are coming in time to start thinking about lots
I vote to combine 41769 and 41770 (two dark blue wedges) 29119 and 29120 (two dark bley wedges with notch) 47397 and 47398 (two dark bley wedges) 6134 and 3937 (hinge and hinge brick) 29119 and 29120 (orange wedges with notch) 4738a and 4739a (the chest and lid)
and because of the printing, any one minifig (complete with no accessories) should be one pick.

I'm fine with all of Excalibur's suggestions.
I might also suggest:
Splitting up the reddish brown window frames into two lots (120/ea) Splitting up the square window grates into two lots (120/ea) Combine pearl gray cauldron and pearl gold handle

I'm good with the pieces not sold on the minifigs.

Ok, looking at the list again and I have to ask: why aren't 160 and 169 combined?
Also how about combining the jewels?

I agree with combining 160 and 169.
I don't see any reason to combine the jewels though. Usually I take the approach that lots shouldn't really be combined unless they lose most of their utility by being separate.
One other combination, on that note, would be to suggest that the mixel ball joints be paired up as a male/female set. I believe there are two different female parts and one male part, so the male parts would just be divided up appropriately to make full sets of each.

Did this happen? Assume you took the discussion elsewhere. Let us know how it worked out.

Yep it happened . AK id in the middle of finishing up the sort as we speak. Great time had by all parties, and went quickly.
