Not To Be Missed

And they are in stock!
 
One sold at £159.95, makes a bit more sense.

You just can't believe everything you see on the net.
 
This seller, ECR, has a track record (pun intended!) of putting silly prices up when a particular item is out of stock, to prevent people ordering it - once they have some back in, the price goes down to a sensible level again. I guess it's easier for them that pulling the listing down and putting it back up again, but whether it's strictly ethical or within evilBay rules, I'm not sure......

You're right there but, however, this listing indicates ongoing sales and items in stock!

I have recently purchased a couple of items from this seller - using my "tight git" philosophy (two freight trucks - cheaper than canibalised flats!) - posted to a UK address (as I mentioned in the Coffee Lounge a couple of days ago. Trouble is they use herpes who have a target date of 29th March for delivery to that UK address. Then it has to be airlifted to this country and delivered to my nearest post office. I'm not holding my breath about delivery!!!

I was impressed with their stand!
A table with a few 'Train' boxes casually laid on it.

Did they seem to be doing much business? Anyone on here talk to them?

Nothing there to draw me in to chat Jon?

As Alan said, just basically a table with a few NQD items on it....

We were across the aisle from them..
To be fair, they did have a train running round, with a camera to a monitor at the back of their stand..
They shifted some stuff. Some commented to me they would not buy, on principal.

They did speak to us.. But most of the time it was a case of ?family? members banging on the window to let them, and the dog(s), in..
