mmie353 Posted December 24, 2021 Posted December 24, 2021 Another one!!!! https://www.ebay.ie/itm/115154529119?hash=item1acfbeab5f:g:36sAAOSwEothw16f 440 euro to buy it now!!! 1 Quote
murphaph Posted December 24, 2021 Posted December 24, 2021 Same seller. I see his logic. He had two bidders prepared to pay roughly 440 give or take a fiver. The losing bidder now gets a second bite at the cherry. Be interesting to see if a bid is placed at 440. 1 Quote

murphaph Posted December 25, 2021 Posted December 25, 2021 That second one is no longer available, so likely sold for the €440 asking price. I am sure the new owner will treasure it. It almost makes me nervous taking mine out to run. If it falls to the floor it's irreplaceable to me as I couldn't justify the price of one. 1 1 Quote
murphaph Posted December 27, 2021 Posted December 27, 2021 Same seller selling what appears to be a third 112 lol. Each time they get a little dearer... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/115159450980 1 Quote

Yes at one stage around 2014 am I correct in recalling that a Lima 201 was for sale for €1200, but once the MM manufactured ones came on the market the Lima's were fetching €50. It doesn't seem that many years ago that 'The Modelshop Portlaoise' could not sell its stock of blue NIR livery 071s. They were listed for years, now gold dust? 1 1 Quote
murphaph Posted December 28, 2021 Posted December 28, 2021 And it happened overnight too because I only started buying Irish stuff last summer and I managed to get all the tippex 071s and the 3 NIR ones at "normal" prices. Nowadays I could not justify buying a single 071 at these prices. I would just have to wait until MM does a re-run or "some one else" does a new version at some point over the coming years. 2 1 Quote

It's IRM's fault for bringing out so much magnificent rolling stock. In theory, they OWE us more 071's! 5 2 Quote

declan64 Posted January 9, 2022 Posted January 9, 2022 Whatever about the IRM A-Classes, a landed price in excess of 200 euro for a Silver Fox A-Class is a joke. They're one of the poorest running locos I've ever owned and no lighting of course. Sold mine for 80 euro which is all they are worth. This seller has prior form with his pricing. 1 1 Quote

Westcorkrailway Posted January 13, 2022 Posted January 13, 2022 One of the best way to justify buying an Irish model when it’s new….put “murphy models” into eBay and seeing a 200 percent increase in price 2 Quote

DJ Dangerous Posted January 13, 2022 Posted January 13, 2022 Let's hope that IRM don't see that or they may decide to run some 121's before their 071's and 141's... 3 Quote
Peter Posted January 20, 2022 Posted January 20, 2022 If anyone models Ireland in n gauge, I found the following Lima coaches on eBay. They're a bit pricy for me. https://www.ebay.ie/itm/133652635555?hash=item1f1e515fa3:g:Dv8AAOSwc1VgFrkU Quote
murphaph Posted January 30, 2022 Posted January 30, 2022 Is this the most paid for a MM 111? https://www.ebay.ie/itm/175115249790 €517 + shipping from the UK. An 8208 in Enterprise livery went for €408 as well. All those baby GMs at €300 buy it now seem to be gone. Prices just keep going up and up. 1 Quote
