  1. How're you getting on with it? Still not feeling it as an album personally. Lucky Man and Pour My Love, I've warmed to a lot, but as an album... After over six months I think I just have to give up trying to like Gaza and Montreal!

    Thanks for the advice, I'll bear that in mind when looking at the prices of working ones!

    I'm (half-heartedly) after one for a bit of kit-bashing fun, but I had something closer to the ten quid mark in mind!

But you could get a second hand J72 for half that, and flog the body on to recoup a fiver?

    Beat me to it! Even taking into account the Rails premium that's ludicrous - and another one also went for only a fiver less!

    I believe the phrase is "one careful owner"!

    "New" I can live with - in many cases it's undeniably more accurate a description than "used" for a model which hasn't been. It's the phrase "as new" which grates, personally, implying it left the factory as per its current condition. All semantics, granted, but for me an "as new" model is just that!

    I once asked Hardjeff (current name escapes me!) to confirm whether one of his models was 'detailed and weathered' or 'as new in box', as the listing stated both - got a reply saying "It's both, hope this helps"... Funnily enough, it didn't!

    Know that feeling! I think ALL of my saved searches now feature "-container" in the search bar. Doesn't get rid of all of them, but does improve matters.

Come on... £30ish for an out of the box non-runner, fiver on some paint, recoup 50p flogging off the smoke deflectors?

    It's a particular shame in this case, as I've had a wagon off him before, and, though expensive, he'd actually done a very nice job! (No connection other than a satisfied customer, and I'm not defending the listings, which hardly scream 'professionalism', just thought I'd mention it!)

    I've seen people bid for promo CDs by a band who still hand out said CDs free on their website, anything's possible on eBay!

  17. Also used by a local Indian restaurant, though I'm not sure it really works in that context!
  18. Arguably by enabling the option on flickr you're giving permission for said option to be used.

    I'll give you a fiver for one?

If I were spending £40 on a pannier I think I'd get a Bachmann 57xx personally...
