Il Grifone Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 (edited) Went to the Home page and had Google translate. Can't find any hard evidence about what sort of company it is, definitely in China tho' . If it is/were a 'real ' flash sale, 2 locos I added to the shopping cart came to £56.06 for the same items in UK just under £260. Hmmm just a little bit too good to be true. The fact that they claim to have multiple examples of rare vintage/collectible items is suspicious to say the least! For example https://www.dentalchiangmaiprice.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1&products_id=10762 Edited January 10, 2019 by Il Grifone Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Bucoops Posted January 11, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 11, 2019 (edited) What a strange site - dental prices for Chiang Mai (a town in Thailand) yet is cloning ebay auctions and turning them into some kind of trap. Under about us it talks about the perfect pair of shoes. Edited January 11, 2019 by Bucoops Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Colin_McLeod Posted January 12, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 12, 2019 Safe to browse but who will be the first to risk £30 on a £150 loco? https://dentalchiangmaiprice.com.cutestat.com 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rail-Online Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 The vendor has just turned it upside down and copied what is written on the replacement chassis. Obviously the Mainline body has 'some work' done to it, but it probably runs better than it ever did before the new chassis! Tony Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I could give the unfortunate Mainline body the decent burial it deserves! There is no mention of whether it works or not though and I doubt Pemco spares are widely available even in the States. A worldwide eBay search produced only a few freight cars and labels for sardines! Edited January 13, 2019 by Il Grifone 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely a short Peak is just a Hill? 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Re6/6 Posted January 14, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 14, 2019 (edited) Something weird going on there methinks....... Indeed, with that sort of money for something so badly painted and badly photographed come to that! These sort of 'anomalies' do seem to appear now and then when one considers the two £1500 bids realized recently for two MTK kits!
