Most of the Woolwiches ended up in green. At least one ended its life still in grey (which they were all in until 1945/7). The single one in lined black is correct, although that one engine - the only one of any class to carry that livery - only did so for about 18 months and only on one route, before withdrawal and scrapping. The several which were black had a correctly coloured pale green “flying snail”, not a yellow one. I think that plain black model has yellow logo - so it’s wrong. Easy to fix, though. In terms of realism, very heavy weathering would be appropriate for all of them in any livery! The only time they were clean was when they were grey…..! 1 Quote

Its always worth checking the UK postage and using AddressPal which is less than 7 Euro. While not so in this case, UK sellers often offer free postage internally so there is a big saving to be made then. An Post will handle the customs side and invoice you for any charges due. 1 1 Quote

Broithe Posted February 5, 2023 Posted February 5, 2023 A point to bear in mind, possibly - I've been 'watching' an item (not model or railway related) that I might get around to obtaining at some point.

DJ Dangerous Posted February 9, 2023 Posted February 9, 2023 17 minutes ago, skinner75 said: plus £28 postage, plus approx £71 duty The postage and the duty is the killer. I posted two of my A's to family up in Ireland to sell, but the crazy postage, and An Post fees, are going to make them difficult to sell. Plus, only one has arrived. Aside from that, those two on eBay with sound chips will work out great value for a UK buyer, or an Irish buyer who has a friend with a UK address. 1 Quote
connollystn Posted February 9, 2023 Posted February 9, 2023 Both locomotives sold for just shy of €300 - with the sound chips included the buyers paid roughly what they're worth so it's a win win situation. Not often you can say that in these pages. 1 Quote
jhb171achill Posted February 9, 2023 Posted February 9, 2023 I wonder when or if the PO and customs will ever get their act together. Ridiculous. I am happy to publicly post that I will go out of my way to disobey the rules on these issues - due to their disarray and nonsense - by having stuff posted to all sorts of addresses outside the jurisdiction where I can get them at some future stage without paying €129 in charges for something worth €2. 2 1 Quote
