Mel_H 825 Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 Not technically a bargain (so please remove if inappropriate) but for £5 you could get one of the new R3810 Hornby Rocket sets. It's a thoughtful move by Derails and raises some cash for the Dean Forest Railway too. https://www.derails.co.uk/index.php?route=product/product&filter_name=win+a&product_id=3356 Link to post Share on other sites

4railsman 41 Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 Rather than order this book through ebay, if you go to the firms own website - https://www.booksetc.co.uk/books/view/-9781913295219 you will find the book can be purchased for £14.94 including FREE postage at the present time. There is no indication as to the stock level on their own website, but it is one less since my purchase a short while ago. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Markwj 719 Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 (edited) Noticed the price has dropped on this awesome weathering job (in my opinion)! http://www.kernowmodelrailcentre.com/p/51682/31-653Z-Bachmann-Class-47-Diesel-Locomotive-number-47-706 I think the sound version at £219 seems like good value too!

The online store will close at the end of 14th August 2020 Mail order and click & collect will not be available after this date We now have the final reduction on the online store with 25% off when you spend £20 (excluding shipping) This includes items that are already discounted. So if an item already has 15% off you get an extra 25% off The discount is automatically calculated at checkout so no code is needed. You can either order via the website or by telephone, pay for your goods and then collect them or we can post them out. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Jack374 5,661 Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 (edited) 54 minutes ago, boxbrownie said: But I looked at the Class 31 Hornby and they are listing at full RRP it appears as £170, once discounts are applied it’s not so much of a bargain, didn’t bother trawling the rest of the site TBH. Not everything will be a bargain...due to the nature of a closing down sale, most bargains go early and this seems to have happened since the sale was first posted a few weeks ago. FYI I bought a Hornby new tooling 87 for £120 which I was pleased with; there were many other items that seemed very cheap but these have mostly gone now. I had another look this week after receiving an email advising closing on the 14th August and am about to make another order. Whilst lots has gone as I say, some things still appear to be a bargain such as some Bachmann wagons which (I think) have hardly ever been discounted but are with this closing 25% off. Whilst they can’t please all, I’d suggest a look and see if there’s anything for you. Very sad to see the shop and online store closing having been a long standing satisfied customer, this being my nearest model shop since I was a child. Jack.

andrew575 5 Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 (edited) I know the 20% off eBay coupon has been mentioned before, but just in case it ends shortly South Devon Railway have over the last few weeks added a number of new items: for example - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Hornby-R3707-Ruston-Hornsby-48DS-Queen-Anne-Longmorn-Distillery-with-Wagon/383653207692?hash=item5953835e8c:g:b0AAAOSwCQJfIB-i having a quick look back on earlier posts this seems to be about the lowest price it has been (£57.59 + post). Certainly I was very pleased with my 009 purchase a couple of weeks ago: the GVT Baldwin - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Bachmann-391-029-Baldwin-Class-10-12-D-4-6-0T-Glyn-Valley-Tramway-Lined/383630064928 at £107.99 + post. Still four versions available! Have a search through their other items - most of them have the 20% coupon offer. Edited July 30, 2020 by andrew575 Link to post Share on other sites

The wagon does not appear to be on the Bachmann website at present. Regards Nick Link to post Share on other sites
