Ebay appear to be having another voucher scheme. This time £5 off, use HIGH5 as the code. up to the 8th November.

 

Not fully investigated it yet, so there may be some conditions.

I’m guessing this has been sent out as a bonus to some accounts. It doesn’t work for me.

Thanks

Ditto - had my eye on a test run only Bachmann Crab for £28 less than Hattons Sale of the Century and was waiting for ebay to cough up the £15 worth of vouchers they owe me but than £7.10 back on it whilst it is still available tipped the balance.  NB it says 5% for me not 5.05%.

Just a reminder to anyone in the Edinburgh area that there will be up to 20% off most Peco, Parkside, Bachmann and Graham Farish products (in shop only) at Harburn Hobbies tomorrow and Saturday (9th and 10th November).

So my parcel has arrived safely from Hattons - 8 days to Australia, and that was tracked and recorded delivery, a good effort from Royal Mail.

 

As to the A3?

 

Well it's not 100% perfect, but the deformation is a lot less prominent than I'd feared:

and from the other side:

(you can click on those images for very large versions to look up close)

 

The kick seems to come from forward of the cylinder centre, while the cab is only poorly fitting on the right hand side - and even then, not distractingly so.

 

In all honesty, for £59, I'm happy.

 

Cheers

Thank you for posting the pictures.  Good service from Hattons.  At £59.00 it is probably good value,  When I was trying to buy in 2016 the price I think was around the £100.

 

Cheers

Not sure if a bargain or not but the Hornby “Urban Rambler” set is being sold in Lidl for £49.99 from the 15th for a week. Also some Airfix and Scalextric.

I would say that is one of Hornby's worst train sets ever, certainly not worth £49.99 of my money. The Airfix kits are a good price though.

Bog standard "cheap" offering they throw out each year for retailers, if its not on sale or return will be interesting to see how much Lidl drop the price by on any unsold stock. By comparison the same thing in Argos is an eye watering £25 more albeit the loco is in its correct livery (well as much the loco bears a resemblance to what its supposed to) https://www.argos.co.uk/product/8497787

Beaten to it by Jason, above.  That is exactly the point. £49.99 is an affordable gift for little Johnnie (insert other names). If he goes off trains and gets into Xbox, no great loss, but he may be bitten by the bug and be signing up for RMWeb membership in a few years.

None of those Hornby starter sets are intended for us lot, are they?
