26power Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Local Homebase (Dumfries) is clearing various Black and Decker/Piranha power tool accessories at £1 each. From packs of three 1.5mm bits up to a 20mm x 400mm masonry bit, sanding discs and sheets, and jigsaw blades. Now that I'm home I see that the small drills and spade bits for wood aren't actually any great saving over say Screwfix, but overall probably got some bargains! Hopefully this also at your store. If so, if anyone finds an "X81092" mandrel for hole saws between 14 and 30mm think of me! Edit to strike out last sentence - mandrel found. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy_197011 Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Anyone in the Kettering (Northants) area, Sellers allsorts in the town centre has some American N gauge locos and box cars (seem cheap at £25) plus a couple of british steam locos, Flying Scotsman (£70) and an LMS possibly a 4F.

RMweb Premium Coryton Posted December 22, 2014 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 22, 2014 Tornado now £74.99 and Mallard £85.80 - hopefully eveyrone here who needed them at the lower prices got them! Given Amazon's pricing policies, this doesn't mean they won't go back down again. Some time ago I was looking at cameras and the price of the one I wanted went up and down by something like £30 on alternate days. The excellent website CamelCamelCamel (http://uk.camelcamelcamel.com/Hornby-R3060-RailRoad-Tornado-Locomotive/product/B004QGSKK6?context=browse) gives you the idea (and makes buying from Amazon feel like playing the stock market). Will it dip again briefly to below £50 tomorrow? Who knows? I sometimes wonder if they work like a budget airline, and set a target of 'n' items to be sold by a given date, and adjust prices accordingly. It does make me appreciate a certain large on-line model railway seller whose prices are so stable they even print them in brochures. If something is reduced to £50, you can be pretty sure it will stay there until they've run out, maybe going down a little more if it really doesn't sell.

Raised On Steam Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 More from Fenwick's, I was in today and they've reduced all their Railroad 9F's to £65 and there were four or five on the shelf. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanky Giraffe Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 For those who may be going into Liverpool City centre, Rapid Hardware (in old George Henry Lees Building) has a small model section. Wasn't aware this existed, but all models are half price. Didn't have much time to have a good look but they have numerous Oxford cars in O and OO gauge. They also have limited selection of Tamiya paints and plently of Airfix model plane kits. I wouldn't make a special trip, but if your down there it's worth a look.

There was no indication of delivery estimates or even what service they'd use, which made me wonder how genuine the site is - does anyone have any idea?When I ordered they were saying orders would be dispatched from the 2nd Jan, now they are quoting four weeks delivery due to the onslaught of orders.

David41283 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Not very exciting, but a bit of a useful bargain IMHO. Wilkinsons seem to have introduced a "pick and mix" screws and bolts section. Everything from the really useful tiny countersunk wood screws every layout needs right through to coach bolts, washers and nuts. A small bag is £1.99 and a large bag £2.99. You can get hundreds of screws in a bag. I've just stocked up on loads of different sizes of useful screws for a handful of change. I also take advantage of Wilkinson's own brand paint tester pots - a reasonably generous pot of paint in loads of colours for just over £1. Far more paint and without the built in brush getting in the way compared to more expensive brands. Great for edges of baseboards or fascias. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
