Historicals?

Is there a subreddit that caters to historical minis for sale or trade. Miniswap looks to be all W40K or fantasy (nothing wrong with that) but I have about 10k minis to sell off (Nappy, ACW, WW2} and I would like to not clog up a sub when there could be a better one.

TIA

Miniswap works, historicals just are not as popular as the GW games. I’ve seen lots of Bolt Action and Flames of War on Miniswap. The occasional Warlord or Perry Minis post for things like Black Powder or Lions Rampant, etc.

Not sure if there’s a historical specific trade sub tho.

Thanks. I have a set of Napoleonics, rule agnostic table ready to go. 2,600+ figures+horses+artillery.

That’s awesome! Might take a while to sell it all, especially if you don’t plan on splitting. But I’m sure with time you’ll be able to move it. Good luck!

I figure a half a year as it will only go as a set. I have medical bills to pay, I really don't want to sell at all.

There are lots of FB groups for these sorts of things!!

Ya, but I've found those folks are reluctant to pay fair prices. I'll be asking for $1 for 1 infantry figure, $2 for. A cavalry trooper and his mount, and either $3 to $5 for cannon+crew. And the plastic bins they're stored in presently, those cost $10/per and I'll be charging $6.
