Sentinel281 Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 (edited) I think that listing stuff like that is a bit like sticking a Mercedes badge on the bonnet of a Lada. Rich, Hehe, or like sticking a CIE broken wheel adhesive on the front of a Hymek, talking abot the class 20... to be clearer: Why shold a private person not do the same as Hornby or the earlier Murphy? I alas am not that deep into irish railway as I want to but to identifiy the class 20 or a Hymek as wrong is not that difficult as, for example, the question about the UTA carriages I linked two days ago.

heirflick Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 (edited) so are the jokes...... A man goes into a service-station and asks "Can I have a windscreen-wiper for my Lada?" "Okay" replied the man in the garage, "it seems a fair swap". What's the difference between a Jehovah's Witness and a Lada? You can shut the door on a Jehovah's Witness. What occupies the last 16 pages of the Lada User's Manual? The bus and train timetables. sorry lads....its a slow day today! Edited January 16, 2013 by heirflick Quote

BosKonay Posted January 23, 2013 Author Posted January 23, 2013 He has a good few days left - I predict it will clear 1k in that time. Quote
Dave Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 He has a good few days left - I predict it will clear 1k in that time. Or eBay fever kicks in and he cleans up! Quote
WRENNEIRE Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 Whats the value of this lot? He paid around €1500 - €1600 depending on where it was bought Everything is now secondhand, no guarantees with anything Still some 201's knocking around 141/181's still available RPSI still around Loads of Cravens around Mk 2'a hard enough to get So I reckon it could be bought today from the various dealers and shops for around €1200, so to make any sense at all it would have to be bought for €1000 max I could not see myself buying it for anything over €900 as the return would be minimal I see postage is quoted at €100!

It actually made what near to what my best guess was - 900eur - still a good buy for the buyer nonetheless. Quote

WRENNEIRE Posted February 2, 2013 Posted February 2, 2013 Jouef HDI is a very collectable brand Made in Ireland for a start! Only lasted a couple of years And although a lot of items were produced in the Shannon factory the HDI brand was not printed on all their models, because of the cost involved in changing the moulds Collectors of HDI are widespread, especially in France Ugly, yes Prototypical, no ( and thats just the collectors) Some of these coaches have made over €100 back in the day Just remember there is no one standing over these bidders with a big stick, they are bidding because they want to buy! Last bid was a sniper, entered in the last 10 seconds before the auction ended I guarantee you he had a bid of up to £80 or more on the coach Just noticed that the coach has no inner, there is a window bar attached to it and it does not show on the photo, so another €10 for a standard Jouef coach to get an inner.
