A rare Bank Holiday item!

This made me smile. Alas for all the wrong reasons. Very rare and only needs a bit of attention to get it running.

It already got mentioned in Stainzmeister's 'Gollum' thread. Talk about a penny dreadful and the bloke wants serious cash for it. :thumbdown:

Have you seen what he is asking for his other items?
Ouch!

Yes, I know. The Rugens with a major part missing and broken valve gear is especially splendid. Postage costs are quite remarkable too.

He describes it as "rare" but there is an identical one listed as well so it's not that rare.

Medium-rare?

Being rare might be only his experet (sic) opinion?

Can't believe where he's got the prices for those American wagons £75 +£10 p&p for a Bobber Caboose must be joking

No, to be fair I think the best is the track listing

With "Low startunbg price to allow for negotiation on amount of track required." So you bid then at the end of the auction negotiate over how much you've been succesful in buying.

Hmm... novel

I had a chuckle at those listings too, much be rare as a- he only has 1 and b- Its broken!! also love the 'low startunbg' price must be to attract half english/half german bidders!!

No, he has 2!

I reckon I need to keep an eye on this lot. There's not many to be collected in my area.
