I can see some people just wanting a grab bag of random sizes, and others wanting to order them individually - did they just arrive in a big bag, or individual packets?

Hmm, how about a ruined clock tower (with enough room to hide a sniper or maybe position a heavy machine gun team) as a piece of scenery (and I'm ignoring the more obvious possibilities with a certain group of what I shall refer to as "technology botherers" in a certain gaming universe Angel ).

Hmm, I think you've convinced me to part with more money.   Whistling

they arrived already mixed up so sellling them by mixed is easier than trying to separate them.  There is a real mixture of stuff of varying sizes...obviously cogs and wheels but also very small screws which scale down nicely to steel building bolts for 28mm scale bases

Ok, grab bags of randomly sized bits it is then.

Although I suppose that rather than you spending the time sorting things out, for shows you could have some empty bags, a box with the bits in and a set of scales, and let people pick out what they want. Angel

 Laughing Seriously, can you imagine it? We couldn't leave it to the individual wanting the parts to help themselves meaning it would tie up a member of staff for five minutes who would be more (profitably) suited to providing customers with their lead fix.

I imagine that if they're sodl at show they will be in blisters on our little desktop carousels like the brass and ball bearings are.

Also we already have trouble at shows with the deals box and rummage box. I can just see people standing in line just waiting to get there paws on these things.
