Mayner Posted March 26 Posted March 26 At first sight the loco reminded me of a cross between the Triang 'Continental" 0-4-0 https://www.ebay.com/itm/375294131391?chn=ps&mkevt=1&mkcid=28 and Big Big Train 'Continental" 0-6-0 of the late 60s http://www.tri-ang.co.uk/2020/General 28/BBEngineA.jpg. Maybe Triang/Rovex idea of what a continental loco looked like. Its not a bad freelance conversion combining Triang 0-6-0 chassis and parts from the "Continental" 0-4-0, the seller seems to have 'lost the plot" in listing the model as a County Donegal loco. 1 Quote
airfixfan Posted March 26 Posted March 26 The only thing accurate is that until 1937 Donegal kocos were painted black! Quote

Killian Keane Posted March 30 Posted March 30 Somehow the seller offered me a discount, despite the fact that I wasnt watching the item or following the seller, something odd going on there, took me all of a tenth of a second contemplation before declining 1 Quote
RobertRoche Posted March 30 Posted March 30 I also got an offer - never noticed the option to send out offers on any of my listings. I once received a message from a person on an item that I was selling, didn't bother responding just blocked them Quote

A money tree if somebody is stupid enough to buy it. like the seller "Gostude" any item that is not boxed and fully documented or has an R number is obviously Rare and expensive. But really they do not have a clue. Just look at his listed OO TT 009 items (all describing same thing?) even if they are old (1960s) Gem 5.5 items. Edited April 4 by commerlad 1 Quote

Some of these ads on things like fleabay or done deal are borderline fraud…… 7 hours ago, David Holman said: He'd stand a better chance by removing the Donegal tag, if he is. Indeed. Listing it as “vintage model locomotive” might be better. Quote
