It's nice to look at our Ebay feedback sometimes to get a little positivity boost.
This is the most lovely one I've seen for a while after selling a Vintage Heroquest game 😍

We love trading at MBGF, bringing a great selection of pre-owned board games and RPGs so that there's always something unexpected for shoppers to discover.
Yesterday we hosted another open event.
As an online tabletop games retailer, hosting these in-person events is one of our personal highlights in the business, as we get to actually meet our customers!
This time we had a huge £10 Game Sale with lots of amazing bargains and happy faces all day!
My first ever Goblin Green bases! 😍
This is one of our "rescues" - taking a customer's abandoned project into a fully painted piece of Warhammer history.
You can find this copt of Talisman 3rd Edition on our Ebay store today!

Having listed to this particular "music" this afternoon, I am the exact opposite of jealous 😂
We had a couple of contenders for 'coolest find' today, but we've decided the coolest is this thrash metal gem!
Flexi-Disc by Sabbat, still in place in White Dwarf issue 95!
The recording we found on Youtube was the soundtrack to our afternoon!

We sell pre-owned games for a living and we take pride in making sure that pre-owned games arrive with customers in good condition.
When buying games for our personal collection, we often buy pre-owned too, and taking good care of games for shipping is sadly not the norm!
Pergola arrived today 😭😭😭
We've just started a new "Tabletop Rescue" project and it's going to be a long road.
We're aiming to sort this joblot of Marvel Champions back into saleable format, as well as trying to rescue the playmats that have seen better days.
Wish us luck!
Thanks for your work on this "Tabletop Rescue"!
My wife, Amy, is the one who taught me to paint and is responsible for most of the painting projects we undetake at Tabletop Rescue.
I'm encouraging her to enter into more painting competitions - would you be kind enough to encourage her too, by liking and reposting her amazing non-binary horse! 💖
We're looking for help identifying the White Dwarf issue that may contain this Tallarn Desert Raiders Army.
We have almost every back issue of WD in stock, so if the rumour is true then we'll be able to pair the army and the White Dwarf magazine it's from which would be SUPER COOL!
A gold Ultra pro deck box split in half, containing one green plastic dinosaur and one orange plastic dinosaur.
No-one: "Is it easy to run a business from home with a toddler running around?"
Me: "Well, no, not always, but his plastic dinosaurs really enjoy pretending that Ultra Pro deck boxes are a train!"

Would love to hear how it goes. We've not had much success with taking board games at Comic Cons.
Do do do do do doo doo do do, do do do do do doo doo "Poo-ie"
"The breakfast of (Sigmar's) Champions!"
As a teenager, one of my best friends painted Warhammer and I really did not understand the appeal. Fast forward 20 years and today I made a detour to Warhammer World for breakfast!
I wish I'd discovered tabletop games sooner, but at least I did eventually!
It's always nice to be able to do something special for our customers.
We don't have physical store, but we were able to organise a special visit to our stockroom today for a surpise birthday treat!
#boardgames #happybirthday #customerservice
I always dreamed of being able to walk to another gamers house and, thanks to this business, I now know;
Al - from my local game group
Geoff - who is opening a Warhammer club in town
Ebay guy - who lives at the end of my street
Side Note: Don't message us on ebay for discounts - email us instead!
We've completed another "Rescue" project this morning.
We bought these three Battletech boxes 3 months ago, but the minis have only just been located by the original owner and now they're reunited.
Now we'll find them a new home where they'll hopefull hit the table soon!
#battletech #miniatures
A car filled with over 100 tabletop RPG books and 50 board games.
Most people associate our business with buying and selling pre-owned board games, but we're often most excited when we receive TTRPGs and Warhammer.
Today we hit the jackpot with Warhammer TTRPGs - two different eras of Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay amongst lots of other great books!

Painted mech miniatures for Expeditions board game.
Expeditions (the sequel to Scythe from @stonemaiergames.com) is our latest addition to our personal collection.
It's unusual for us to love a new game enough to sleeve the cards, buy the expansion, add upgraded coins and paint the minis all in 1 week!
Two stacks of historical war games from publishers such as Compass Games, Hollandspiele and White Dog Games.
This big stack of historical war games is a single customer order from one of our regulars.
We recently starting talking more about our wishlist service and it's awesome to be fulfilling orders for some sought after grail games for our customers.

A very large pile of parcels!
The long Easter weekend was a busy one for sales on both our Ebay and Facebook page.
We're very grateful to everyone who ordered from us - our postman was a little shocked today!

Last night we got the chance to play Finspan from @stonemaiergames.com
It's a much lighter gamer than we were expecting, but it was about right for us after a hectic week here.
Wyrmspan still tops the charts for -span games, but we'd be happy to play again.
What do others think?
Bringing up our gaming son (hopefully)!
✔️Dice was one of his first words
✔️Likes to play "Dinosaur Dice" - each toy dinosaur receives a matching colour dice
✔️"Want board games" is the subject of at least 20% of tantrums
✔️Creative use of Warhammer
Tomorrow will be our first time visiting Salute at Excel London run by @slondonwarlords.bsky.social
We're excited to see if we might have a stand there in 2026!
@amyjade.bsky.social has a shopping list, I'm turning on networking mode, and we're excited to see who we will see there!
Thanks so much!!

Phew! We're finally getting back on track after a superb weekend at @aireconuk.bsky.social
I couldn't have done it without the help of my awesome wife!
We loved meeting every single person at our stall and were amazed by how many people know about Tabletop Rescue!
Two branded 'Tabletop Resuce' t-shirts - one navy blue and one heather purple.
I know it seems small, but getting our first branded clothing today is a weirdly proud moment for me.
I've been running this business full-time for almost a year and we're going to celebrate with a (hopefully) huge weekend at Airecon! @aireconuk.bsky.social
Will we see you there?
Agreed - we played it just a few weeks ago with my parents.
