richrua Posted June 22, 2020 Posted June 22, 2020 Same two bidders as the last galway gen. I put one on myself, it sold for decent money (to fund a guinness liner pack for meself :-)) but it did not attract these two bidders, so sold for much less. (Although still a lot more than my original purchase price so I'm happy believe me!) Just wondering, though..... 1 Quote
richrua Posted June 23, 2020 Posted June 23, 2020 I happened to watch both other Galway Gen Van items . Perhaps I did let my one go for too little , they could have got it for £60 less than these... . Here is a shot of the bidding on both Quote
Georgeconna Posted June 23, 2020 Posted June 23, 2020 Big bump up there with nearly a Ton Jump in Price in one go...mmmmm. On the other end of the scale I had a 1.48 Morris Van, sold on ebay today, Worth about a £10 on the shop shelf, Sold for €1.00 and the guy canceled it over €0.50 postage. He Tells me post should be €5.50. PFO I told him. I'll leave the kid play with it. 3 Quote

Noel Posted June 24, 2020 Posted June 24, 2020 I've quite a bit of old 1970s Lima stuff like that, but (avert your eyes @WRENNEIRE) I threw all the boxes out long ago. I don't run it anymore. They did make nice mk3 coaches. Quote
WRENNEIRE Posted June 24, 2020 Posted June 24, 2020 For the likes of me Noel, the value is in the box So I need a mint wagon/coach with a mint inner in a mint box Luckily I have the aforementioned bits, and with postage of $24+ on a wagon I am glad that I have Quote

jhb171achill Posted June 26, 2020 Posted June 26, 2020 Yer man's looking for about €50 for goods wagons you can pick up anywhere! I know that (a) beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and (b) if you can get it, take it; but I think the old adage that fools and their money are easily parted is more apt. 1 Quote
kevo Posted June 26, 2020 Posted June 26, 2020 Just would like to say I have just re started my interest in irish locos again and i do own a 141 class .And just thought i might like To see if there were any others on E BAY but was cutt dead in my tracks on the insane 2nd hand prices . i will go back and check but i could not belive my eyes a 141 was going for £400 and thats on bids . there is no way on earth i or most people can pay that sort of money . i just hope and fingers crossed bachmann do a re run and soon that would may be putt a stop to this sort of practice 3 Quote
WRENNEIRE Posted June 26, 2020 Posted June 26, 2020 Dont hold your breath Kev, MM wont be doing a re run any time soon The Chinese manufacturers want big runs of everything atm, small runs, and it would have to be small would have the locos costing around the €250 mark They do turn up at the likes of the Stillorgan or Bray toy fairs , might be worth a visit when they reopen 1 Quote

Fortunately I picked up some a few years ago before the current price spike. As these locos were produced by Bachmann for MM I don't see a re-run happening anytime soon, unless another company decided to partner with MM and do a refreshed version of the 141/181s. To this day the 141/181s are my favourite locos of all time and their diminutive size really suits typical sized layouts. They can operate singly or in pairs. Quote

Personally, I wouldn't pay that type of money, no matter how much I wanted the model. But there are people out there that will. And as long as their willing to part with their cash, you'll always see ridiculous prices like that. 1 Quote
