Steve K Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 Some sort of bizarre placeholder entry - maybe for an item which doesn't exist yet? Sorry, I'm as baffled as you... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horsetan Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 Meanwhile, and somewhat off-topic, God loves a trier. And nothing more trying than this little gem: >>Click here<< It reminds me of that "Speed 3" episode in Father Ted, where Mrs. Doyle got the idea....from a magazine.......

Bernard Lamb Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 Meanwhile, and somewhat off-topic, God loves a trier. And nothing more trying than this little gem: >>Click here<< Ah... but this must be 'new' and 'mint' as the seller's address is MK, very close to the birth place of the article concerned. Now if he could find out the name of the chap who moulded it the price would shoot up. Actually it's quite cheap when you consider that the blue LNWR version was fetching 50p a go many years ago.

RMweb Gold Colin_McLeod Posted April 23, 2011 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 23, 2011 May be cheap Bernard, but look at the postage. Try estimating the cost of building a three bed semi!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold unravelled Posted April 24, 2011 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 24, 2011 Meanwhile, and somewhat off-topic, God loves a trier. And nothing more trying than this little gem: >>Click here<< I remember those. I don't know if it was a specifically produced product or one of the sizes used for fireplaces and the like My father got sent one, but I won't be buying. That was the sort of freebie/sample given out in the late 50s. Had a green felt base to protect the tabletop. It may have been smoking related, but was a bit safer than the lump of rock asbestos he had from another company which we were occasionally allowed to pick at.

Ah, but there's always the option of not paying postage - whereupon the seller will deliver for free to a window near you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold TheSignalEngineer Posted April 24, 2011 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 24, 2011 This one must be made of a precious metal Dublo station , the postage would be nearer the value of the items. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
