Drum roll £99.50, a massive saving of nada, although £99.50 is still a good price. Speaking as someone who used to buy quite a few bargain Class 50's some years ago, that is not in my opinion a bargain, £75 or less for what is a in stock for quite some time now item would be nearer the mark IMHO. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst I see your point, the RRP on these now north of £170! The days of picking up even second hand examples for under £80 are long gone I’m afraid. At least they got the livery correct on this one!

To claim a price is for 24 hours only when it has been there both before and after the day may be crossing a line...

Theo C. Cupier Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Similar to the Santa Special set mentioned above, some of our local ASDA branches have had the Hornby Western Freight Hauler set on offer at £40 (reduced from £60). The ASDA direct site shows it as out of stock, and our nearest branch had sold out yesterday evening, having had four on display for the last week. Haven't yet convinced myself it is such a bargain, since the items don't really fit in with the planned (currently only virtual) layout. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
