RMweb Gold Re6/6 Posted January 18, 2016 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 18, 2016 How not to sell an Ebay item with a single image, ( unless they really do look like that ).... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/lima-coaches-/301846302580?hash=item4647710f74:g:tmsAAOSwa-dWlU2Q i don't think that I've ever seen a 93% feedback before, particularly on only 20 odd sales!

RMweb Gold Re6/6 Posted January 18, 2016 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 18, 2016 (edited) Meanwhile, it's serious bidders only for this one I would want a rather better weathering job for such a price. By today's prices at market maybe £500.....with a better paint job of course! I'm waiting for the Heljan jobbie. I have a Crownline 'conversion kit' and a Jamieson King body to alter rather than the awful Hby body, so I think that I'll be satisfied with them! £1000 indeed!

Horsetan Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 I would want a rather better weathering job for such a price.

Thing is, a 47xx will sell, but seemingly only if it's still in kit form. The ones that have been built are difficult to shift. There is a really nice Kemilway-based 47xx in EM which was allegedly built by the late George Pring, and priced at £395. This isn't the first time it's been on eBay either - this is the fourth or fifth time of asking. No idea why this is; they are magnificent engines.

That lining is coarse even by Dublo standards! The rest should have been left well alone - Dublo were not above moulded handrails (apart possibly from changing the driving wheels (Dublo 4MT are the right pattern) - the bogie wheels could have stayed as they were). The model is a 'Hornby' product after all and thus Dublo legacy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has been relisted at 99p so the seller does have some common sense.

Earlswood Nob Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 I had a disagreement with the manager of a local charity shop, when asking the price of some cricket books. He quoted £10 each, but I said that was too expensive. He remarked that they were on Ebay for £15. I replied that the only reason they were on Ebay for that price was because all those at a competitive price were sold and didn't remain on Ebay, and I could buy them new for £8 at a local bookshop. He did not like my reply, and I walked out. Earlswood nob 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
