Amazon uk has Hornby Collett coach R4876A for less than 20 quid. There were 13 available but now down to 11. Prices fluctuate. I paid slightly more for mine. The R4876 I bought for £24 is now about £43.

 

 

Thanks I managed to get one

DCC Supplies are giving 20% discount off their Dapol graded stock for the month of April. I have just succumbed to the Grade 1 Guinness 08 they had at a very reasonable price. The only downside is that SWMBO said that I do not need two diesel shunters so my other one will have to go. eBay, here I come!

That looks like it might be a good deal. Black Label Bittern sound fitted (no lighting or smoke) grade 1, £160

That's 20% off.

I think they were 15% off originally so its an extra 5% which is about £12.50.

EDIT: The SR model is even cheaper here

The SR and BR black ones are frequently discounted quite notably - need to be in the right place at the right time, browsing on ebay a month back for something else its habits of showing items you had previously looked for had a listing of a BR black at £179 post free. The buy it now button was pressed.

Why?

Bargains disappear.

There may only have been 1 of them at that price.

 

There were 7 when I looked, just after the original posting.  Decided to pass even though it was good price (other variants were £42+).  So either they sold like the proverbial, or the pricing bot came back from tea break.

It will be the pricing bot coming back from a tea break... I read a fascinating article on this sometime ago about how a book (that no-one was buying) ended up being priced at £14,000 due to pricing bot algorithim failings. Anyway, that's OT. Keeping looking chaps!
