I'm sure I sure this loco at swindon outlet Hornby concession marked up at £80 last week Sorry to be off topic, but wish the Hornby Outlet in Swindon was so far from Yorkshire. Would really like a 60 099 in Tata steel livery for £80 quid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mel_H Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 MReMag reports that Bachmann's 50ft inspection saloons are now on the boat from China with an RRP of £59.95. A quick inter web trawl discovers that Hattons is still offering them (LMS, BR maroon and BR blue/grey) at £42.50, compared with around £50 elsewhere, for pre-orders Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BR(S) Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 MReMag reports that Bachmann's 50ft inspection saloons are now on the boat from China with an RRP of £59.95. A quick inter web trawl discovers that Hattons is still offering them (LMS, BR maroon and BR blue/grey) at £42.50, compared with around £50 elsewhere, for pre-orders I think this model comes under the maximum 15% discount rules for the first 8 weeks, so I'm not sure Bachmann would be happy for Hatton's to offer it at that price. The Hatton's website mentions that the price might rise and people will be given the opportunity to cancel the order if that's the case. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Classsix T Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 I've enough for my uses, but with the Liverpool concern having upped their's to £84, if you're still after a Bachmann Bongo HMC still has good deals (LNER green one slightly cheaper btw). http://herefordmodels.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2_3&products_id=6537 C6T.

RhBBob Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Hattons have the Gaugemaster DCC 14 - backlit hand held unit for PA2 back in stock....for £99 (RRP £140) ...so I bought another ! Watch for the DCC 12 appearing in sales very soon....... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gulliver Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 I assume it's discontinued, so no chance. The replacement R3161B is due out later this year, I bet they aren't discounting that to £59.99! Model Railways Direct (usually a good bet for low prices) have 3 x R3161A in stock, but at £98.95. Keith EDIT Antics are showing 6 in stock and new stock arriving 28th July but a price of £130.25!!! No shortage of 2-BILS at £59.99 at Kernow this morning when I went and collected mine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueeighties Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 alanhughes seemed to be pleased about paying only £42.50 for an inspection saloon - a coach, after all, pretty much like any other. Have you (pardon the pun) inspected one of these? They are absolutely superb. £42.50 for something finished to this standard is a bargain in my book. The previous cost to purchase and get a kit built of this particular model cost a lot more than even Bachmann's full retail. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The previous cost to purchase and get a kit built of this particular model cost a lot more than even Bachmann's full retail. I haven't had the privilege as yet of seeing one of these coaches close up, but I don't see why that should be relevant. I (as well as others no doubt) have bought Pullman coaches with equally excellent detail, not mentioning lit interior, for £15 in the not too distant past. This coach at a supposed bargain price is almost three times that amount - unless the doors are made to open, I don't see how it improves on the Hornby offerings of recent years. The point I was trying to make is that viewing circa £40 for a coach as a bargain is incredible, as it just isn't. Each to their own though I guess...

I was only trying to be helpful for other forum users, especially given the impending price rises. I suppose 'bargains' are all a matter of perspective... given that the RRP is £115 and there's not many main line locos (steam or diesel) for less than £100 I reckon you were quite right to post this as a bargain. Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Sidelines Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 £77.00 sounds quite a bargain. It had me looking to see what I paid for mine in April - £77.56. So not so very different. Regards Ray Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
