Or at least two big O Gauge diesels from Rails if Sheffield!

I wonder whether the seller of that bus will reflect the proceeds in his income tax assessment?

Back in the old days, 'they' had many ways of spotting things, they would record the phone numbers in newspaper small ads, to spot that 'amateur' car dealers and I remember one chap being asked how he had spent far more through just his Nectar card than was declared as his total annual earnings, etc...

I’d be more concerned about the buyer - probably getting a divorce for Christmas.

Not to be missed (I'm smiling) three of my earliest GNR(I) wagons:

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/205015333639?mkevt=1&mkpid=0&emsid=e11021.m43.l1120&mkcid=7&ch=osgood&euid=898e1ab47f144e9abd6d692a64ca38fa&bu=43025934942&ut=RU&osub=-1~1&crd=20240928045607&segname=11021

It seems as if the seller has been taking a cue from The Boys and is trying to sell my wagons IN THREES!

Try him for about £60?

I wonder if it is the same guy who was trying to sell them at £25..00 each a few weeks ago?

Nice rake of four RPSI green re-sprays for €157:

Could do with some flush glazing, but better than nothing.

2600 Class DMU kinda sorta not really

Repainted Bachmann Class 150.  Fair to middling effort but the cab front is way off.  

Not Murphy Models…

All for £250 plus postage.

Cheers

Darius

Nothing like a bit of greed, is there?

There's an IRM RPSI set listed by a UK-based eBay seller for just under £300 at the moment, so someone's onto a nice little mark-up.

This one?

Same seller, Trainsa-67 / Andy's Trains and Things has the O Gauge Jinty's for sale at twice what Hatton's were selling them off for, and Rails subsequently sold them off for.

Yet Gaugemaster have them for sale at €200 EURO each.

 

While Hunslets are a hot topic, here's one for €180:

Murphy Models MM0113 in NIR livery for €550:

https://www.ebay.es/itm/365223747631

Was advertised for €450 yesterday but the seller was advised to review their pricing:

https://www.ebay.es/itm/365220165111

Well above what I'm prepared to pay...

€160 to €180 from retailers three years ago.

€375 would be double the price, and I'd maaaaaaaybe stretch to that for one.

Probably €250 each for the new re-run, likely on sale over the next few months.

Same seller has a load of Irish locos for sale, as they have done in the past:

https://www.ebay.es/usr/magr216967

Some of the pricing isn't bad at all.

I’m not sure if I’ve bought myself a bargain or a load of junk!

MIR bubble kit for a tenner. I think it’s complete and unstarted. Building this ought to encourage IRM to make another batch…

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/387600221777?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=JJ5k5JepSVS&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=PWnBnL0RQpq&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

 

At the very least it should give me a CIE vac-braked underframe, and the proceeds to a charity.
