Always worth asking

Ya any grey ones in stock dave?

Iv 2 black and orange ones.must be worth a small fortune if thsts the case.

You got a freight grey you would sell?

I understand with rare items I paid 350 for an 071 but stuff from big production runs or still produced is just crazy

You can ask these prices but nobody would be mad enough to pay them.but then again there's no accounting for stupid.

I'm going to give them a very light sanding and then use a white primer before the yellow.the decals to do 5 wagons are 22 euro online from studio scale models.i think be a fiddly job stripping the paint.thats how ill do it.i might be wrong but ill give it a go.

166 pound it ended at alright 42 pounds postage and 60 pounds customs. I bought 2 in Network rail livery for 50 pounds each recently n the better half collected them when home on holiday in liverpool. Rake of 8 well over a grand at them prices if buying from the uk

I156 pounds already and 5 days to go.just curioushat are these generally going for if do they come up for sale? I bought 2 network raill autoballasters before Xmas and paid 50 stg each.ill repaint them yellow and buy decals be an awful lot cheaper

156 pounds already and 5 days to go.just curious what are these generally going for if do they come up for sale?

Saw this on adverts today.

I never realized that.i really should be clued in better as I work for an post and am based in head office.

I got 2 genisis coaches from rails and had 24 quid vat on top of 10 pounds postage.

I was lucky my other half was home visiting family in the uk so have an address to have stuff posted to .not getting stung for vat and an posts fees.

I got 2 a few weeks ago on ebay for 50 sterling each.need repainting.i never see the irish stuff come up at all.

Hornby r.768 the cie hymek for 300 English pounds.not in original box and has decals not paper rounds on the ends.also says its from the 1960s which is also wrong. Bought one from Dave in bray last year with paper broken wheels on the ends for 50 euro.this is way over priced.add in vat and postage too.

Iv no 201s not my era .70s is my time but ill still buy a couple of these and new 071s just to have the liveries.bought an 071 last year and wasn't cheap at all.

Got 2 delivered this morning.look outstanding and intact in packaging.so happy iv ordered a third.

Been awhile but iv finally got stairs made .alot of watching YouTube and a lot of trial and error but for first time having a go I'm well pleased. Stairs primed for paint and outside of cabin done too.need to redo the base as not happy with the brick paper how I covered it. And before anyone comments yes that is a class 33 in irish rail livery.bought from you know who last year out in bray.

Today iv finally got walls and floor put together.have used 1 and 2 mm styrene rod for frames. Iv used 1mm styrene sheet for the floor.. i need to build a roof and do glazing.wood floor and interior.bit of filling needs doing on frames before priming and paint.this my first attempt using styrene to build anything iv also been hampered that iv got cataracts and I'm pretty much blind in my right eye so depth perception is a bit askew. The cabin is 50mm wide and 240mm in length.the base is 40 mm wide 220 mm long and 50 mm tall. Stairs are also needed so if cant buy something suitable ill try make my own. I fount that using cellulose thinners works great as an adhesive as seen it used on youtube.

Thats them there dave.its not the price of them its the postage and vat thats the thing thats annoying.

Peters spares postage is £18.20 in the English money not including 23%vat.

Found a cheaper option .not by much but still less than both.so have bit the bullet and bought 2 sets to see .

Address pal is a tenner now.6.50 and 3.50 admin fee.hate giving an post money as I work for them.did use it years ago but refuse to pay them the admin fee and 23%vat too. Might be cheaper to fly to UK with Ryan Air and pick em up in person

Howdy, Quick question.im looking for springs and brushes for ringfield motors ,I can readily buy them on ebay but its 18 quid postage and 23%vat on top of it.is there anywhere in ireland that sells these parts.?can buy em on eBay and have em delivered to a friend in the uk to repost but want to find an alternate to this.
