Just advising a fellow modeller so they weren't disappointed! Wanting to sell the majority of products direct and undercutting retailers is a different thing entirely, and done to death elsewhere. At the end of the day, all companies dump stock they cannot sell, one way or another! Why look on here if your not after a bargain?

I missed out on the Hattons blue and grey bargain 121's by an hour or so To my un-trained eye, the Highland Stag logo is the only difference between the blue/grey and Highland stag version; which is still available at £79. So £79, a cotton bud and some suitable removing fluid and you've got your blue/grey 121. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still excellent value for money. They certainly are. Shame about the extra 20% over there though, I’d feel pretty hard done by for that. My dilemma is last year I was a week late into the shops getting mine. I was after a plane wood example but ended up with a white as it was all I could get. Do I stick with more white ones or get the plane wood? They’re going on a white wall so I suspect I might just keep them the same. Although I do think the plane wood looks a touch more elegant.

White ones are more difficult to revert to plane wood. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Dragonfly Posted December 7, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 7, 2019 (edited) Well, Hattons don't appear to be making much of an effort this year. Today's '12 Days of Christmas' deal is the Class 121. Yet again. Sure, the £79 bubblecar is a good deal, but it's a discount they've had on it for months. Going back to Black Friday for a moment, I had no less than four emails showcasing different groupings of their "Black Friday" deals, all of which were their existing discounted stock at prices they'd been selling them at for weeks/months, Sure, the deals are still good, but in the past they've always managed to add a few new deals for this, otherwise the "Black Friday" banner at the top of the email seems... false? And now it appears that their "12 Deals of Christmas" is going down the same route. Or am I missing something?

Rails are recycling some of their old bargains but from the ones ive seen at least they are lowering the price a little further. I was watching several products in the month leading up to black friday, prices never changed only the sale graphics. In my opinion so far Kernow and Rails are making far more effort than Hattons with the advent offers. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
